A large number of protesters are university students. It is no surprise that they're involved in the rise of the pandemic. Recklessness concerning their health is to blame, not the President. Don't expect a piece of fabric over your mouth to keep you safe. Please stay home!

in positive test results or people with symptoms huge huge huge huge huge huge huge difference.

Okay but how many of these 1,200 positive cases were actually sick? How many hospitalized? Any deaths? I bet less than 10% symptomatic

Um stfu 9k deaths stfu

How the fuck can you blame a President for the idiotic personal decisions stupid people make. Blame it on yourselves and no one else.

Consider there is no'Standard' test not surprised. Fl. Dr's noticed all the tests were coming back positive so they sent some in unused-came back positive. Also seems if you had flu it picks ups antibodies-WTF why even test?

Time for the University of Alabama to change their team name to 'The COVID Tide'.

Send their sorry asses back to their parents basement for this semester.

Trump tricked them. It's all his fault.

Zero have died.

You just lied about and slandered Kyle Rittenhouse. I’ve tweeted your report to his attorney.

Testing positive means 0 I tested positive and had 0 symptoms They want you to test positive They want you to take the vaccine Follow the money .... Fauci Gates Brexit stand to make $$$ My bet congress Senate has stock Not taking any vaccine I dont take the flu shot

I don’t see masks😳

Today’s America: 2 tribes going to war, verbal, cultural, racial, religious, & more recently armed conflict. I fear for the future. While the undercurrents are age-old, the overt animosity/aggression is accelerating under current local/state/federal leadership.

Probably realDonaldTrump, who has been campaigning for a year, is very busy. In search of culprits for his managerial incompetence and in an attempt to convince his constituency, that even wrong, he is right.Irresponsible

The numbers are only going to go up.

Have the People Finally Awoken? via YouTube We Will, We Will, Mock YOU!! Masks are Buffoonish. Just Sayin'

What was expected - Zero cases ? What’s acceptable ? How many in crit condition ? how many deaths ? Could experiment w-campus red/green zones . Red = QT, digital learning, recover , test, release 2’green Green = rotate live w/digital learning +daily, temp , test check

And they’re all fine. Imagine that

CandaceMcCowan7 Here's KellyannePolls confessing this week bout how they see violence as political upside and aren’t gonna stop it/want it “The more chaos and anarchy and vandalism and violence reigns, the better it is for the very clear choice on who's best on public safety and law and order.'

Bringing guns to 'Peaceful Protests' is Violation of 1st Amendment, Felony & should be considered Terrorism. Retweet if you agree...

WHY ARE IDAHO MAGA NAZIS ATTACKING PORTLAND ?!?

Its out we are done.

Black people waking up and realizing they are being played. Soros and Bush family bus in rioters and govt. Contractors to burn down black neighborhoods then leave. They want Biden because he is Chinese owned and Trump is not. Bush + Biden= Chinese owned biotches. Wake up sheep.

TrustFauci

Leronlimab by CytoDyn Inc, USA is the only drug which has shown efficacy (statistical significant in NEWs/recovery in day 3) and safety in the recent double blinded random clinical trials. With Leron approved and mass produced, COVID will be a flu/ life will be back normal!

Maybe they should adopt what the University of Arizona did. Test the wastewater to determine where the majority of cases are coming from.

More to come. No vaccine yet.

I wonder what covid deniers/minimizers and non-mask wearers will think when they start sending their kids off to college and they come home in a coffin?

🖕the fear porn!

Roll Tide?

They have got to get the numbers up so everyone’s scared to vote in person. Mail in ballot fraud is their only hope left.

Stop rioting and stay home. Problem solved.

Blame the Republicans.

Death rates? Hospitalisations? 🤔

Who controls this fake media? God you are biased! I have read 10 out of 10 negative news about America and Trump from your Twitter You understand why many call you FakeNews? Amazing. What a shame

Safety first.

Damn right about this

YEP BECAUSE THEY ARE OUT RIOTING AND DESTROYING OUR CITIES.. WORTHLESS HUMANS...

In other news, more than 1200 students were healthy and continued on with life as normal.

But massive demonstrations in DC and other Democratic run cities are a- okay .

Oh no! They will close schools again !

Eu não sei porque previlégio,bandido é bandido, e por ter estudo deveriam ter pena maior, porque entende muito mais de leis ,pra mim quem protege é cúmplice

Cannt the students do self protection like reduce social distance, hygien hand often and wearing mask?

Trump’s failure .

I bet zero die.

So right now we all should be VERY concerned that Trump and key players in his administration are actively plotting to steal this election and there after our democracy. The Top Nat Intellig Ofc is no longer to brief Congress on election security 😳 SaveDemocracy

They'll all get it, as we will. And we'll get over it with treatment and rest. Then we will continue to live on.

Hey, did you see the tens of thousands gathered in DC? You think they might be spreading it too? Why no article condemning it?

Propaganda

But. The riots are fine.

As long as Alabama goes 2 seasons with no SEC Championships I'm fine

That's more cases than several countries combined lol. Why is the US so diseased? Even considering any different testing margins, the comparison to global peers is pretty cringe.

And will happen more over the next few weeks ScienceMatters

more tracers needed to contact those in close contact with positive tested people

Stop testing for false positives then.

How many are false?

Alabama: Republican Dystopia. Students and staff sent straight to hell.

Covid-19 has caused a spike in demand for infrared technology, but there are limitationsAs the world struggles with the coronavirus, detecting whether or not someone is infected is one of the biggest challenges. The fastest test can return results in about 15 minutes, but in some cases results can take a week. For more instant results, infrared technology is fast becoming the preferred method of detecting fevers, one of the virus' primary symptoms. Amazing to see so many practical uses of technology, both new and old, as we work toward a cleaner tomorrow. Aren’t 4/5 non symptomatic ? Who asked for this bullshit? Tawain has no cases and didnt use this tech.
