Several people who attended a high school swim party in Arkansas have contracted Covid-19, Gov. Asa Hutchinson told reporters on Saturday.
"A high school swim party that I'm sure everybody thought was harmless. They're young, they're swimming, they're just having activity and positive cases resulted from that," Hutchinson said. The governor declined to provide further details on the swim party but noted the incident was"just an encouragement for us to be disciplined in our activities.
This story was published the same day realDonaldTrump demanded that schools reopen.
Like I have said before. There are not many smart people in Alabama. They slso vote for stupid people!
It’s his lack of leadership that caused their infection. He dropped the ball and that should be the end of his political career.

You think?🤔 People across this country are acting like nothing has happened...smdh
People who don't understand exponential spread is going stupid shit like this time and time again.
I feel 90% of stuff like this are lies spewed by the media or officials in government to scare people. Not saying whether it’s safe or not, but how do they know? Someone gets sick, and calls up the government and says “hey I’m sick, I just went to a party”
tesslass Not surprised but shocked by the total ignorance of people. Those idiots go home to family, see their parents, kids, etc and put them all at risk.
tesslass Good I hope they give it to their families and other Trump supporters. FYI no medical support is needed send them to the church or their Republican representative They choose to accept the consequences, and their parents approved no bailout
Geez is he really that stupid🤦🏽♀️ We have got to vet people running for office better!

Nobody believes what Cnn is saying all they preach is doom and gloom I just wish and pray they would start telling the truth that’s what the American people want the American people aren’t going to go down easy!
It’s all lies..there is nothing like Covid 19,please stop promoting every evil 😈 agendas of ObamaGates & Dr Anthony fauci 👿👿👿👿
Let em live or die outside of the heath care system. They ignored the risks. The beds and ventilators and for those who get the virus because of the MORONS!
More MAGA Lab Rats.
A real news organization would find out if it was an indoor pool. I suppose that would endanger the 'dunk on the rubes' ploy.
Duh?
If the lockdown continues I wonder if the flu season will be more deadly than normal since many may have weaker immune systems due to prolonged isolation.
Can't fix stupid!
They are driving this crazy h0ax van down every street
Here we go. Just wait 2-3 weeks. Maybe sooner.
Pool party is nothing....wait to you have a church full of people. A real live party time for any friendly virus.
They might have also contracted the flu, which is more likely to kill them than Corona.
Mosquitoes test positive for Covid 19. Summer is canceled.

'having activity'? Somehow that sounds more skeezy than what they were actually up to.
Johanvanderslam It’s all good because trump says it will go away by May. He still has a week to be right.
Never drive again because you might have a wreck. StayHomeforever
.Duh!
But this isn’t news 😂😂
This is exactly what public health officials are urging not to do, but Americans are selfish and need to party.
Well, that’s one way to look at it for sure. It’s not the right one, It could have been prevented, but hey, this is a Republican. They could actually polish turds if trump asked them to.
When was this swim party? I know it has been happening this weekend but that would be a bit quick for diagnoses I would imagine But I applaud the sentiment ps. Who realises this is STILL only the first wave?
Unrealistic to expect people to not test positive
When was the party? Where were those that tested positive before the party?
Jeez too bad we didn’t know how to prevent it.
We are going to end up like Sweden— but fatter, deader, and broke.
If kids don't have any sense, perhaps their parents should?
People just live in fear and I don’t really care what they do
Lake of the Ozarks: Hold my beer.
I call bs to this.
