It's madness - it's been shown that the sooner a country adopts mask-wearing, the fewer coronavirus deaths they had, but we're almost six months into the pandemic and a big proportion of the US population appears to still believe that masks are some kind of Communist plot.
What The Hell Do These Anti-Mask People Think Our Endgame Is Here?
If we're benefiting from this, I think we have a right to know how!

There is a bit of correlation/causation thing there though... Countries that introduce facemasks are (probably) far more likely to be using other methods of control as well. Though this is a bit of a sidetrack I suppose, the broader point is the reaction to fairly rudimentary prevention methods in (some parts of) the US.

Someone put some real effort into producing that misinformation. But who? I hope this is investigated.

Surely that's part of the MAGA narrative - Trump doesn't wear one, so people are emboldened to refuse.

51,000 new positive tests in one day, yesterday........ Dr Fauci thinks a daily " very disturbing" 100,000 daily new cases now well within the relms... The opinion of some health experts is that numbers are now way past the point of any ability of significant contact tracing and isolation. They have lost control.
They think that the lower current attribututable death toll is due to the demographic change in the positive cases (mid thirties) with patients carrying fewer underlying morbitities, as opposed to the care home older age group high underlying morbidity mass fatalities in April.
But there may be a miscount.

"There is a general anti-science, anti-authority, anti-vaccine feeling among some people in this country - an alarmingly large percentage of people, relatively speaking,"... Fauci.

Official U.S. coronavirus death toll is 'a substantial undercount' of actual tally, Yale study finds
The 781,000 total deaths in the United States in the three months through May 30 were nearly 19% higher than what would normally be expected, the study said.
"There is a general anti-science, anti-authority, anti-vaccine feeling among some people in this country - an alarmingly large percentage of people, relatively speaking,"... Fauci.

But it seems like everyone is getting obsessed with masks. Even when Fauci (sp) was speaking the other day he was talking about "masks and distancing". Note how masks comes first.

I am getting the feeling that Trump has gone mad and needs to step down. There were reports out the other day, saying he might do just that. Ultimately dismissed as fanciful.
He's realised he's lost the election and is throwing the American people under the bus, he doesn't give a shit anymore.

Congratulations on catching up with the rest of us.
Obvs, he's always been a bit mad. But this week, especially so. The wobbly wheels seem to have finally broken and come off, all of them at once.

I think it turns him on to have enough power to let people die. The Republican Party is currently a Jim Jones-style death cult.

There are vast swathes of evangelical rural America that just don't see the pandemic as a big thing. These are Trump's natural supporters, and they're not all (conspira)loons.
