Journalists’ health put at risk by Trump team, charges White House Correspondents Association
Apparently eager to portray a country that’s definitively back on track, the White House on Friday effectively forced reporters to abandon the Trump administration’s own social-distancing guidance.
Chairs for correspondents, of late placed at a remove from one another in accordance with the widely recognized recommendation to stay 6 feet away from others to lower the risk of coronavirus contagion, were assembled in the Rose Garden in status quo ante fashion.
Why, asked the White House Correspondents Association, were reporters being asked to violate established best practices? A succinct answer from the White House:
‘It looks better.’
— Judd Deere, deputy press secretary
President Trump, at the podium, took note of the nearly shoulder-to-shoulder seating arrangement Friday as it were an organic occurrence, or perhaps based on epidemiological factors, saying: “I noticed you’re starting to get much closer together. Looks much better, I must say.”

It was probably too much to expect any reporter, let alone a majority, to show the tiniest amount of good sense and move their chairs 6 feet apart. Instead, their Association wrote a strongly worded memo which makes exactly no difference. The chairs stay where Trump wants, even though the chairs are very light and folding. Maybe at least one reporter should have thrown a chair at the Presidential podium?

The Legacy Media is huge supporters of the riots and arson.
None of the rioters are abiding any residual recommendations from a virus that nobody even thinks about anymore.

The coronavirus pandemic has produced “one of the greatest wealth transfers in history,” CNBC’s Jim Cramer said. "This is the first recession where big business … is coming through virtually unscathed, if not going for the gold,” he added.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 has recovered all of its losses from the coronavirus meltdown and set a new high on Thursday. Many investors are betting on a V-shaped economic recovery, Cramer said.
“I think we’re looking at a V-shaped recovery in the stock market, and that has almost nothing to do with a V-shaped recovery in the economy,” he said.

sfer.html
It needs to said, since most of you aren't wealthy, but the greatest wealth transfer in history is increasing the wealth of the wealthy and, related, increasing the National Debt by about 25% in only two months. If you are rich, you can't help but love what Trump has done for you, even if you don't love him.

Pooled Testing for Covid-19
I think our fundamental problem is not a lack of good ideas. It’s that, outside of some isolated pockets of progress, our entire civilization no longer has the will (or ability? is there a difference?) to implement good ideas, or even really to try them. For anything new that requires coordination, today there are just too many stakeholders who need to be brought on board, too many risks that need further study. So I see Zeph, and anyone like him, as occupying a tragic position, a bit like that of an Aztec advocating the use of the wheel. “Sure,” the Aztec elders might calmly reply, “wheeled transport is obvious enough that we’ve all considered it, but a moment’s thought reveals why, in our actually existing empire, it would be reckless, costly, and of at most marginal benefit…”

Washington State has had 313 new cases in a 24 hour period. So, Victoria in agreement with Ottawa has decided that the border between BC and Washington State is to remain closed until the end of July. But that could be extended if Washington State's covid numbers remain high.

COVID has slowed down in Canada and so we are holding our own up here. Things in BC are slowly restarting like Hollywood North but there are a lot of regs that must be followed.

Ontario and Quebec are finally ready to start moving into phase 2 of reopening their provinces as their infection rates and death rates have gone down.
Though there is a small stumbling block for Ontario. Toronto and larger area around it is still in phase 1. Covid numbers still too high.
BC is good for phase 3 whenever the word comes down from Dr. Bonnie Henry and Health Minister Adrian Dix.
Alberta's numbers seem to be on the rise.

Thanks for the update! As a whole, Canada does seem to be doing far better than the US when it comes to getting it under control, and then thoughtfully reopening. I'm not surprised about Alberta, though. My impression (formed during the constitutional convention I listened to many, many years ago) is they're kind of rednecked.
Here in the US, despite that fact that NYS dropped from ~11,000 new cases/ day April 10, 2020 to ~750 per day now (a decrease of 10,250), the country as a whole has only dropped from ~32,000 new cases per day to ~22,500 new cases per day (a decrease of 9,500).
So the rest of the country looks like our efforts at mitigating SARS-CoV-2 are going nowhere, fast.

We're at stage 4 of 5... whatever that means. I wasn't even aware of that until one of my neighbors mentioned it to me the other day while I was mowing the lawn. Outside of wearing a mask at the big-box home improvment store by me, and the month or so where everyone was hoarding stuff I really haven't even noticed much of a change around here so far.
I just looked... Not at 4 just yet... he was wrong. That happens on Friday.
Office workers can go back to work in their offices, retail stores and malls can go back to full capacity, restaurants can go to 75% capacity and everything else is pretty much 50% capacity. Playgrounds will open back up too. The article I read made no mention of churches... I have no idea what they're at now.
My brother was finally able to start going back to church. They only allow 10 people at a time where he lives still, but the church has made efforts to do services and activities every day of the week for now and schedules interested people for the slots until they open back up normally. That's probably the best thing I've heard so far. I'm happy for him.

Welcome.
We have done but it has been a struggle for Ontario and Quebec to get to this spot. *Fingers crossed* that Toronto and the surrounding areas can get things under control.
Alberta has always been conservative on most things. It could be that maybe some from BC have gone into Alberta in spite of being told to stay in BC. The the other thing is American tourists coming into Alberta saying that they are going to Alaska. Americans can still do that.
Banff has had a number of American tourists coming through and so this could account for the rise in numbers. That was on Sunday's news.
My province might be getting a little twitchy about that because of boat traffic while be starting going up and down the coast.
Yeah, I know it's still not good down there and still lots of hot spots. Washington state is off limits for who knows how long to BC travellers.

I think the reason why Quebec and Ontario are having difficulties is because they have really active international airports, highly urban centers, tight housing, and really good public transportation over a large population area.
I mentioned what I did about Alberta because there seems to be a strain of asocial truculence, that might show up in less than helpful behaviors when it comes to trying to quash a pandemic. I could be wrong, but I think of Alberta as the Texas of Canada.

The middle of May brought a long weekend to all of Canada in BC it was the Victoria Day weekend. So, in Toronto there were huge numbers of people gathering in the local parks even with park people being out and trying to insure social distancing.
Toronto is also the largest city in Canada followed by Montreal then Vancouver then Calgary then Edmonton.
Also Kiki, I don't think the problem in Alberta is with Albertans themselves. I did mention that Americans are coming into Alberta saying they are going to Alaska when in fact they are VACATIONING in places like Banff and Jasper which they SHOULD NOT BE DOING.
I should apologize for making Alberta's numbers seem worse than they are. It was 20 new cases in Edmonton. Their numbers are not too much higher than BC's. And they have been there for us. Example when their numbers were lower than ours and they had extra medical supplies they sent the extra to BC. Canadians come together in a crisis.

Yeah, I can see Americans coming to Canada and ignoring your rules, or worse, actively subverting them.
Sigh. I apologize for my fellow countrypeople.
I've been following the numbers of both the total for the US as well as for the various states (plus my home state California and my home county Los Angeles for personal reasons). So I have a fair idea of what's happening when and where.
I don't have any information at all about Canada, except what you bring here. Just to be nosy, did Ontario(Toronto) and Quebec(Montreal) experience a reduction followed by a spike 3 or so weeks after Victoria day? If you could answer that question without too much trouble, I'd appreciate it.

We have a president who, instead of wearing a mask, turns defiance of mask-wearing into a heroic act of defiance against liberals; who forces 1,100 West Point cadets to travel back to campus, and quarantine for two weeks, so he can get a photo op addressing their graduation; who is planning a mass rally in Tulsa, Okla., on Saturday — where the most notable precaution is that you sign a legal disclaimer that you “voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to Covid-19 and agree not to hold Donald J. Trump for President Inc” liable.
It is absolutely devilish — like Trump wakes up every morning and asks himself: What health expert’s advice can I defy today?

Also Kiki, I don't think the problem in Alberta is with Albertans themselves. I did mention that Americans are coming into Alberta saying they are going to Alaska when in fact they are VACATIONING in places like Banff and Jasper which they SHOULD NOT BE DOING.
I should apologize for making Alberta's numbers seem worse than they are. It was 20 new cases in Edmonton. Their numbers are not too much higher than BC's. And they have been there for us. Example when their numbers were lower than ours and they had extra medical supplies they sent the extra to BC. Canadians come together in a crisis.

Yeah, I can see Americans coming to Canada and ignoring your rules, or worse, actively subverting them.
Sigh. I apologize for my fellow countrypeople.
I've been following the numbers of both the total for the US as well as for the various states (plus my home state California and my home county Los Angeles for personal reasons). So I have a fair idea of what's happening when and where.
I don't have any information at all about Canada, except what you bring here. Just to be nosy, did Ontario(Toronto) and Quebec(Montreal) experience a reduction followed by a spike 3 or so weeks after Victoria day? If you could answer that question without too much trouble, I'd appreciate it.
Exactly Kiki. They are subverting the rules put in place by the Canadian and your own American Federal governments.
Alberta is my second home so I have been keeping an eye on things there.
Best numbers I can find for Toronto and area is on May 21st they recorded 413 new cases. 3 weeks was June 11th and they only recorded 184 cases. Better but still too high for phase 2.
Ontario and this number is for the whole province has over 32,000 cases as of June 16th.
These are also best numbers for Montreal as of May 21st, they recorded 324 cases. 3 weeks to June 11th and they recorded 63 new cases.
Total number of cases for all of Quebec is over 54,000 as of June 16th.
Total number of cases for all of BC is over 2,000 as of June 16th.
Total number of cases for all of Alberta is over 7,000 as of June 16th.
Total number of cases for all of Canada is over 99,000.
Total number of deaths for Canada over 8,000.

It's okay. I learned something from the research. I wasn't sure what the total number of cases for all of Canada was. News just usually gives numbers for the province they are talking about.
I was born in BC and lived around the Lower Mainland and out into the Valley growing up. But Alberta holds a special place in my heart. I've been out there a few times. My Blair lived out there and my dad was from Southern Alberta, a little place called Medicine Hat. So, I get you.

Quote:In the early 20th century the American South was ravaged by pellagra, a nasty disease that produced the “four Ds” — dermatitis, diarrhea, dementia and death. At first, pellagra’s nature was uncertain, but by 1915 Dr. Joseph Goldberger, a Hungarian immigrant employed by the federal government, had conclusively shown that it was caused by nutritional deficiencies associated with poverty, and especially with a molasses and corn-based diet.
Originally posted by 6IXSTRINGJACK:

However, for decades many Southern citizens and politicians refused to accept this diagnosis, declaring either that the epidemic was a fiction created by Northerners to insult the South or that the nutritional theory was an attack on Southern culture. And deaths from pellagra continued to climb.
Sound familiar?
We’ve known for months what it takes to bring Covid-19 under control. Most advanced countries have done it. A few countries, like New Zealand and South Korea, have largely or completely defeated the coronavirus. But the United States is exceptional, in a very bad way.

To be accurate, the article doesn't mention SARS-CoV-2 at all, or draw any parallels.
And it's not true that we 'know' how to deal with it except by throwing everything including the kitchen sink at it. What truly works, versus what's excessive, or mere voodoo, is still open for debate.
There's one model that indicates superspreaders and superspreading events are responsible for virtually all outbreaks, and that most cases of COVID-19 will transmit to none, one, or maybe 2 people, before hitting a natural stop, and dying out.
That explosive superspreading describes Wuhan, Italy, and NYC very well, and those superspreading events do seem to require extreme measure to stop.
It doesn't at all match the inexorable rise of cases seen elsewhere, like in California, where, one presumes, enough measures have been enforced well-enough to halt the transmission chain over time. One presumes no superspreading events are taking place. And according to that model, it should either explode, or die out - there's no room for persistently increasing, in-between community-based spread with transmission barriers in place.
California might be a good natural test-case for mask-wearing as a public health strategy. There was enough variation between counties - with at least one county (Orange County, SoCal) where the health officer quit due to death threats over mask-wearing requirements - that (I believe) Governor Newsom decided to put some uniformity and backbone into the requirement and made it statewide. (It had previously been a recommendation, with some counties making it a requirement, and others not.) So hopefully we'll have some good information on whether or not that particular tactic works in this non-superspreading condition as California continues to open back up.
SK followed the tactics of border closure, mask-wearing, widespread testing, contact tracing, and MANDATORY 14-day quarantine for those testing positive as well as for their contacts. But the contact tracing isn't going well in the US, and I believe the virus is too widespread for that approach to work on the virus. (Contact tracing is a tried-and-true approach for STDs, for example, but I think it's only relevant when the number of contacts is low, and/ or the number of cases is low.)
Herd immunity doesn't seem to be working in Sweden, where, despite very high numbers of fatalities compared to other countries, population exposure/ potential immunity stands at only about 14%.
'Protecting vulnerable populations' is some vague aspirational goal, which I think has not much relevance to the US where 45% of people are hypertensive, and, therefore, vulnerable.
So ... no, except for the most draconian measures blanket-imposed, no one really knows what it takes, exactly, to stop SARS-CoV-2.
But if you have different information, I would welcome you bringing it forward.

Laschet said the new lockdown would mirror the measures imposed on a national level earlier in the Covid-19 pandemic.

Last night, in a tightly packed auditorium in which almost no one was wearing a mask, Trump protected himself from the virus by having everyone he interacts with tested daily. He was standing at a safe distance from the crowd, alone on stage, and more than 10 feet from a separate podium set up for other speakers to use.
If Trump wants to demonstrate that testing really is, as he has said, “overrated,” and there is no need for Americans to fear infection, he could start by no longer requiring anyone who gets close to him to be tested first, and get back to shaking some hands at his next rally.
The president’s effort to pretend that the viral outbreak has been contained, which no doubt encouraged almost all of the young activists in the hall to crowd together without masks, even extended to telling them at one point that the United States, in the past two months, has lived through, “hopefully, the end of the pandemic.”
Trump also repeated his false claim that the spike in new cases in states that have pressed ahead with reopening businesses without meeting the benchmarks for containment released by his own coronavirus task force was merely a statistical blip caused by more widespread testing. As he did, someone in the audience reportedly shouted out, “Stop the testing!”

Sure, that makes sense. If we test less, we’ll look better. If we lift the emergency declaration, it means everything is OK. As long as people die without anyone making a big fuss about it on TV — which is Donald Trump’s only gauge of reality — then America is great again.
The White House, naturally, denies they’re planning to do this, but I assume we all know what a White House denial is worth these days.

Neighbors had about 20 kids over today. Not sure if it was a "finally our kids can be kids again" party or a birthday party. Good for them.
Seems like life is getting back to normal around these parts. And there never was any violence, rioting or looting here either.
That's what happens when you don't live in a Democrat ran shithole of a state and county.
Do Right, Be Right. :)

Who's the "shithole country" now? The United States is included on a draft list of countries whose citizens would be blocked from entering the European Union as European countries lift travel restrictions and lockdowns. The U.S. would be included on the EU list with Russia and Brazil, where the coronavirus responses have been similarly dysfunctional.

Trump and the GOP really screwed up if they are doing worse than Vietnam. Know what I mean, Jack?

Not really. They're both extremely related due to the timing of the events and the over-hyping by the media.
I'd reckon that it's only in Democrat ran places where it doesn't pretty much look exactly like it did last summer right now.

Secret Service Agents Quarantined After Tulsa
When do Republicans stop defending Trump? What does it finally take?
Dozens of Secret Service officers and agents who were on site for President Trump’s rally in Tulsa last week were ordered to self-quarantine after two of their colleagues tested positive for the novel coronavirus, part of the fallout from Trump’s insistence on holding the mass gathering over the objections of public health officials. The Secret Service instructed employees who worked the Tulsa event to stay at home for 14 days when they returned from the weekend trip, according to two people familiar with the agency’s decision.

In other words, bullshit.
Just another day of WaPo WaPoing.
Then out the other side of your faces you'll make fun of Trump's rally numbers.

Donald Trump has been suggesting the coronavirus is under control for 156 days now. LOL!
On January 22, President Donald Trump did an interview with CNBC from Davos, Switzerland, where he was asked, for the first time, about the coronavirus in America.
"We have it totally under control," Trump said. "It's one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It's going to be just fine."
That was 156 days ago. In the interim, 2.4 million Americans have tested positive for coronavirus and more than 121,000 have died. And just Wednesday, the three most populous states in the country -- California, Florida and Texas -- reported record numbers of daily coronavirus cases.
As the coronavirus numbers continue to pile up, Trump's insistence that it's all over (or will be over soon) seems more and more discordant. And, unfortunately, more frequent.
"It's going away," Trump said of the coronavirus during a speech to a conservative students group in Arizona on Wednesday. (On Tuesday, Arizona reported more than 3,600 cases of Covid-19, the highest single day total since the start of the pandemic.)
Either Trump is stupid or the people believing him are stupid. Or both. Shout out to 6ix!
