don’t see them arguing about closing visa offices, canceling citizen naturalization and green card applications being unconstitutional either, even if it probably is.
thankfully, since the country’s “open for business” we should see those restarting any day now. yup. any day.
“I am in the smallest room of my house and I have your letter in front of me. Soon I will have it behind me.”
The incoherence … troublingly accurate
A: Having no plan is the plan! Haven’t you been listening? Plans are for commies and the Danish. Here we do it fast and loose and dumb and wrong, and occasionally we have a man who manufactures pillows come to the White House to show the president encouraging texts.
Sure, speculation isn’t unscientific. It is very much part of the scientific method. A first step.
I do not exclude the possibility that the virus arrived earlier than currently known. However, that speculation or hypotheses in this direction so far lack corroborating evidence.
I hope I didn’t piss you off? I feel slightly misrepresented by your wording and assume some tension: I am definitely not treating sentences from two-months old interviews as “gospel”. But so far, I’ve not heard more of evidence other than some positive PCR tests which might or might not hold up to scrutiny. Hence, I urge caution before we jump to conclusions.
Additionally, medical professionals do have a weekend (even though they have rotating shifts), so hospitals are often understaffed on the weekends. Paperwork isn’t that important, all patients are.
Seriously? O_o
Haven’t noticed this bullshit that around here. Some journos asked early on in press conferences why official figures sometimes where corrected in hindsight (because day of taking the sample, not day of report, is counted). That was cleared up early on. Easter was quite a bump, FTR.
In Germany,
but especially in the US.
I would guess that also is due to differences in the reporting chain, and possibly also due to differences in correcting figures (see above) after reporting.
(FTR, data from ECDC. Might also play a role.)

Again:
WTF? Also, conspiracy theorists will have a ball with this. Wanna bet it gets linked to the epidemic of Russian gravity storms sucking doctors out windows?
For those who haven’t noticed the Blutooth topics:
ETA: no, not the privacy-related problems.
Due to the extreme vulnerability of remote Indigenous communities to Covid infection, the Northern Territory of Australia has been under near-total lockdown since the crisis began.
But apparently that is no longer a concern. Subservience to the empire trumps all.
So, the billions Frontier received isn’t enough to cover an empty seat or two?
Haven’t watched yet, but this might have a different focus than what was taken out of your DW post on Greece:
Here’s your daily dose of well documented incompetence from the Trump admin
Am I mistaken or are these communities vulnerable all the time, and not especially to Covid-19? Immunologically speaking, I would expect them to be as susceptible as everyone else.
I don’t want to question that they are vulnerable, and this is a bad thing indeed to move a large group of US Marines there now. But I think a higher vulnerability stems from marginalisation in society, etc. - not to anything related directly to the virus. Right?
Who can stand in the way
