Biden question

Did he ever actually say he would lock down the county, close all schools and businesses, and make us stay home for months? I have never heard him say that. He said a mask mandate (which we need) but I read a lot of panic and a lot of stuff that sounds absurd.
I can't find him ever saying he never wanted schools to open. This is hysteria.

Re: Biden question

No I don't' think he said that. I think he said something at the last debate like- Yes, I'd consider lock downs if necessary.
Also, I believe that is up to the individual governors of the states.
If the president could make those decisions, wouldn't trump have opened up the whole country a lot sooner?
I thought the closing of schools and businesses, locking down of states etc was up to the individual state.
So I 'm not sure where this fear of lock down is coming from.

Re: Biden question

He never said that.

It's fear mongering by right wingnuts.

It doesn't work that way, anyway. He couldn't even if he wanted to. Which he doesn't.

“I would shut it down; I would listen to the scientists,” Biden told ABC’s David Muir in a joint interview with his running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris, to air Sunday. “We’re going to do whatever it takes to save lives.”

But many scientists have said a complete lockdown is not necessary IF we have a national mask mandate and balance the economy with virus control. No scientist has ever said to lock people in their basements forever.

But you see, NY as a democrat state is still closed in many, many cases.

Sorry, I won't believe it as republican states have reopened and have been fine and NY is losing jobs and homes left and right.

"Fine"? Wow... so I guess your definition of "fine" is "Highest number of cases per day ever" for Texas.

I realize I'll never be able to convince you of facts and science. I just want other people to realize that what you're saying is almost never based on facts, just fear-mongering, conspiracy theory, and extremist beliefs.

Covid Cases in other states are currently OUT OF CONTROL. We are in a bubble in NYS. My ILs are in MA and keep saying how their numbers are rising.

The White House has chosen the COVID Tracking Project as the best source to cite for daily US test numbers in its “Opening Up America Again” testing strategy.

The less than a minute video which the FBI checked out and sounds like nothing came out of that, right?

There are many mentally ill people out there and he did this same thing back in 2014. You are going to go by 1 person and the story didn't even say he was a Trump supporter.

You have heard the word hate? I never have so maybe I don't have family and friends who are like that and didn't vote for him for many reasons and didn't have to go as far to say they hate him.

Not to mention, the states that have the lowest positivity rates are by and large the democratic states.

Texas is not fully open and actually closed some things. FL is basically fully open and most places are masks optional.

Numbers will always be there. As long as there are limited or no hospitalizations and deaths. That was our original goal.
How many false positives and how many no symptoms or very little?

Re: Biden question

I believe Biden will enforce masks. Not shut everything down. I think he will enforce more businesses to do rapid testing (and actually set these things up and make them accessible for people). I do not think he wants to close any businesses. Maybe certain hot spot areas or certain businesses not enforcing whatever rules he puts into place, but only for a short time and not the entire country. He doesn't want to collapse society, the economy and have people stop working. He just wants people to do everything safely with the guidance or what the new science says about covid 19. But whatever he chooses to do, he will do it with the people in mind and resources to help the ones affected by it. Trump just cares about himself and his ratings. He doesn't care about anything else.

Did you read the data??? Hospitalizations and deaths are up.

This is the data the White House uses. This is REAL data.

So many are still jobless as their places are opening at smaller percentages or never reopened. Not all schools are 5 days. Yes many things are back to normal but we are not fully open that we can act like we did before this. Many places even close earlier and bars have the chance of getting their liquor license revoked so it has become harder to be social if you were before.
