The steroids are irrelevant.
COVID takes about a week to get serious even without any treatment whatsoever. We are only on about day 5.
Sitting outside the US, the reporting, going back to March even, has been incredibly bad. I mean like, mind bogglingly stupid. I'm sitting here in China, where we basically just did a
1 month lockdown, but a real lockdown nationwide, and EVERYONE wore masks, and it's been gone for months. The economy in China opened up in about 6 weeks. COVID is ancient history out here. Everyone wore masks, even after lockdown. Nobody complained. And on TV, the Chinese govt leaders did not take of their masks to speak into a microphone like some American douchbag. And they all wore standard disposible surgical masks, not those "cool" looking black masks that are so de reigeuour for US officials, but are kind of shit in terms of stopping transmission.
During the lockdown, ALL TV news personalities wore masks during the nightly news.
When Xijingping was on TV, speaking into microphones, he wore a mask, and you could see shots of the party cadres in the audience, not with "an empty seat" between them, but with their own separate tables, with full social distancing.
I have no words left for how humiliated I am by the US response. I hear that something like 60 percent of American's "dissaprove" of T's handling. That is humiliating. 1 in 3 approve?!? WFT guys.
The US is a fucking pariah on the world stage. All this talk about "herd mentality" is right on point. The fact that even more than 10% does not recognize are flat earther stupid just boggles the mind. Why the fuck is anyone even trying to figure out how T is doing "so well" on day 5. When this thing hid Wuhan last year most people did not even report to the hospital until day 5. Typically, the very earliest was day 3, and then the next big batch was day 5. And now president Typhoid Mary is back in the white house spreading death to everyone around him.
It's embarrassing.
"leader of the free world" my ass. He's the stupidist, weakest, most irresponsible national leader I have ever seen in my lifetime, and just like every businsess he have ever run, he is running the United States into the ground.
