Can someone explain to me then how these masks actually work? Ca mandated them 5 weeks ago & now has an increase of Covid cases at 162%!?!?

You are lying every day

Now list the number that recovered......

Who cares its got a 99% survival rate

8,650,171 have lived world wide from lib-2020!!! Pneumonia 2.5 mil died in 2017 But nothing on this!

MeetThePress WHO said it? Who cares?

& yet many of us have to go to work, take public transportation, deal with strangers in enclosed spaces etc. We should've been shut down from months ago to let COVID19 burn out as much as possible, then cautious reopening. World governments should have paid us & worked together.

MeetThePress But I heard the rise in cases was 100% President Trump's fault? Is the whole world his fault or is every other leader just as bad as Trump?

But the number of dead and hospitalized from the ChinaVirus continues to fall. It's the flu, rest, drink plenty of fluids, take aspirin to reduce fever. Send me $50 for the doctor's visit I saved you...

MeetThePress How can we trust the numbers when there has been no accountability for the integrity of the data?

MeetThePress Oh, the WHO is “reliable”. 😂😂😂😂FireCuckTurdd

Crazy how all the other related deaths like cancer and the flu dropped but not COVIDー19 I don’t trust these pricks.
