just when you thought you knew what stupid was

I often quote this statement as well. That why I "DO" research on airborne transport of COVID-19. How about you, or others?

Nope. My field is electronics and telecom. I am mostly in the "teaching" category now.

If we had done an all hands on deck moonshot approach and made N95 masks for everyone in the country when this started and mandated that everyone wear them when they were around other people other than family they lived with we would not have a crashed economy and 200,000 dead Americans. This was poorly handled from the start and we are going to pay for this for years to come.

I would like to know of a living sole that would have been able to handle it better.

Maybe just some guy that doesn't even know what day it is.

I don't envy anyone that finds themselves in that position. It's a no win situation.

Those that can, do.
Those that can't do, teach.
Those that can't teach, consult.

I always heard number 3 would be politics (or sales)

consultants are like seagulls: They fly in, crap on everything and then fly away.

MickeyDBC literally JUST explained it to you in the post above yours; seemed like that was what you were responding to, but the cognitive dissonance here is just astounding. The president could have used the defense production act in FEBRUARY to make masks for all americans, and told us to wear them, and modeled this cautious behavoir himself. He could have advocated for proper, extended state shutdowns until case rates were truly declining, trusting the science to guide us. Instead, he simply lied daily, denied it was actually a problem, and then bullied states into reopening on the false and idiotic premise that the economy would magically rebound and thus improve his reelection chances. Of course now he probably doesn't even want covid to go away, since he can dismantle the USPS and discourage voting to help his chances. Hes an evil moron that has handled this pandemic about as poorly as anyone possibly could. "it is what it is"

LoL...How quickly memory fades..or how peeps like to remember things...

Americans did not even take social distancing seriously (let alone wearing masks) until the virus was fully out of control...l
And then even some refused to adhere...unless you're forgetting all the unrelated protesting and demonstrating ??

Why is there a faction of society that is constantly trying to rewrite and retell history in a way that leans heavily to only their biases?

Really. Where did each states health plan come from? The governors of that state. They are responsible.
