As U.S. death toll from the coronavirus nears 100,000, crowds gather over Memorial Day weekend in places such as Ocean City, Md., and at the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri

Memorial Day weekend drew many Americans out of their homes after long periods of coronavirus-related lockdowns, but officials urged caution as the nation’s death toll from the pandemic rose to nearly 100,000.

The total number of confirmed coronavirus cases exceeded 5.4 million world-wide Monday, with more than 1.6 million of those in the U.S., according to data from Johns Hopkins University. The U.S. death toll stood at more than 97,700, close to 30% of the global total of 345,104.

If America responds to a pandemic in this fashion. No more blaming the President.

stop the fear mongering is focused in northeast

Second wave

Headline should be “Low depth of field photos taken with a telephoto lens from various parts of America”

let freedom ring!

100k deaths over the course of several months isn’t even that bad so chill

Get ready for a spike.

Good to see people enjoying life.

I am cautiously optimistic that Trump and the GOP are correct in saying and practicing unsafe health. We all want it to end but I will let other people lead the way. To use one of Trump's favorite quotes, 'we'll see what happens'.

I wish you guys would please stop posting misleading pictures of beaches taken with telephoto lenses that exaggerate the number of people there.

If they are outside....

The Sharons are out of lockdown and unafraid. Let the summer party begin! Karens stay home and cower.

Maybe people should take what her husband took?

Blah blah blah.. we have been told 10 different times that there will be surges after certain events and nothing ever happens. Spring Breakers in Florida, voting in Wisconsin, protests in several states... no surge ever happens. These warnings just fall on deaf ears now.. open up

COVIDIOTS

these are the 3rd world state that only cares for the white. covid19 coronavirus COVID19Pandemic

Why aren't u (and all MSM) using the corrected, 30% lower but prob still inflated death 's on the CDC's website?

All those people are exposed and will return home, be with their families, go to work, go shopping, etc. And not once did any one of those there care about anyone else but their self indulgent selves. Because their politician told them to just go back to normal. Who dies there?

Meanwhile, in order to prevent a 2nd wave......

Home of the free. Get out there. Enjoy

So now what? If in a week there is a huge spike, what happens?

NO ONE UNDER 70 AND HEALTHY GIVES A SHIT about coronavirus - I HOPE THAT IS OBVIOUS from your picture! People want to live!

Well, since the deaths are mostly in the NYC area. Ocean City and the Ozarks should be safe.

May want to note that Dr. Birx, the scarf doctor, believes that the estimate of Covid deaths is overinflated by as much as 25%. Might even be more. But hey, let's make it political since it is an election year.

Probably another outbreak this fall

100,000 people did NOT die FROM CoVid 19. 'CDC U.S. COVID-19 case counts and death counts include both confirmed and probable cases and deaths.' Note the word 'probable'

Real numbers are no where near 100,000.

Good for them !

The actual number of US deaths FROM the virus is closer to 32,000 than 100,000. 'Deaths with Pneumonia and COVID-19'

I imagine the real toll is way beneath that

tick - tick - tick ⏰ 💣 💥

At this point, America deserves the numbers

These westerners are far more idiot and misguided....they are pompous and disgraceful.they will be loosing too much...if they take nature so lightly

stop the ridiculous fear mongering.

Americans showing the way to Democrat governors

Good for them, enjoy your holiday and let see what's going on later.

Live elective experiment: now the US should trace ppl who were at the Ozarks for health data

What’s the real death toll? Not deaths coded corona but died of other causes.

Maybe they're celebrating🎉.

Do we have reports on the people that were at the beaches in Florida back in March? Did all those people die? Did they kill all their family members?

interesting choices

What a bunch of total arseholes. Giving front line workers the finger.

Спасибо за новость

ah, it's like this folks … 'Live FREE or DIE' , not just a motto from the Revolutionary War but a truly American response to restrictions from authorities !!!

...growing tired of the lockdown? ...second wave coming ...

That's right, it's the people! Not the U.S. government! Trump2020Landslide

Many people must experience things first hand. realDonaldTrump is one of them, it's why we are in such a poor state now - lack of awareness / belief. He needs pictures, not words or numbers. Who knows what these folks need?

But freedom

I imagine in China there are still people eating bats, saying the link to virus is a hoax. In the USA, their equivalents are pictured here. Americanbateaters

Well nobody cares nothing before they will be infected with Covid :)

Maybe beaching is essential to them

Well we should know in 14 days if it’s still spreading like wildfire or if the lockdown was all a waste of time, because ppl r out enjoying life like a normal Memorial Day . . . 🤷‍♂️

👍

No problem, Earth gets better and healthier when People like these leave the earth sooner.

Can’t live in hiding forever.

And who is it that gave official status to these officials you are referring to. Sure as fuck was not Me.

yall are doing this to yourselves lmao, US really is a 3rd world country with a gucci belt.

Good for them, about time this faux hysteria was ended

These are all healthy people without underlying medical conditions and strong immune systems. High risk people shouldn't be out here.

🤦🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

Again another photo from a low angle with a telephoto lens that compresses distance distorting the truth.

might as well open the whole damn country and remove all restrictions

Coronavirus: Conservative MPs urge Johnson to fire Dominic Cummings - Business InsiderBusiness Insider is a fast-growing business site with deep financial, media, tech, and other industry verticals. Launched in 2007, the site is now the largest business news site on the web. He’s human, give the guy a break. I feel like this is all misdirected anger and frustration.

Ahead Of Eid, India's Muslim Clerics Urge Celebrating At Home, Donating To CharityInstead of the usual Eid al-Fitr festivities, Muslim leaders in India are urging faithful to donate to charities and to call loved ones with wishes. 'If we want to love them, we have to maintain distance,' one said. And yet for some reason, Christians can't seem to find their god without a building. India is a very congested country. Viruses LOVE masses of people and filthy conditions, that's where they multiply fastest! Please find a better source to post about eid-ul- fit than an article written on a country where muslims are subjected to inhumane treatment. If it’s not a planted article than what.. in IOK ( Indian occupied Kashmir) muslins are unjustly in the world’s longest lock down.
