I also know several who contracted the virus, so what? They have been properly mixed and are firm and strong. Life goes on.

And they are alive too! Go figure

I wonder what % of adults know someone who has lost their job or their business because of coronavirus......

'Had the coronavirus since December'. The virus doesn't live that long in a host. You guys are supposed to be journalists, yet write like 3rd graders.

No they don’t The tests don’t work so NO ONE knows anyone who’s (supposedly) had a corona

My brother-in-law and a friend both tested positive on Friday.

It did not have to be this bad. Covid Deaths per 100,000 people: USA 66.33 France 49.43 Canada 25.95 Germany 11.72 Australia 3.56 Japan 1.31 So. Korea 0.85 This reflects a criminal absence of leadership. Facts matter. Vote Biden.

It is amazing that there are so many people who believe something doesn't exist unless it affects them or someone they know.

We know at least 30 people who have had COVID. None died, none hospitalized.

So do I, at least 12, all fine.

What happened to the flu?

What about all those that have already voted and now want to change their vote? Like we have any real choice? That said, people have to think the election is legitimate, or who knows what they'll do? That's why Trump's rhetoric is so dangerous. If he wins, he may find the country ungovernable.

Trump hates MAGAts Jo Biden is not running. Yahoo is running for him. Joe biden just forgot who he was running against in a interview. He is not campaigning and there is only a week to go. Trump brought us in to the pandemic and the recession. He could easily have prevented both by demonstrating some leadership instead of demonstrating retaliation. Trump is a catastrophic failure. He is not intelligent or compassionate.
