You said: As of today more lives have been lost in blue states... More deaths, and worse economies... Lets just keep our fingers pointed at Trump and quit trying to make this red vs blue.
you're the one who brought up the economy and unemployment as a rebuttal to the analysis of a pandemic response.
Yes... thats because red states have decided that risking more Covid cases is an acceptable cost for greater economic stability. Not saying its the wrong or right call... but it should be factored in.
This will always be the fundamental difference. They just value human life less. Not much you can do to argue with someone like that.
maybe you dont have to test people who wouldnt have even knew they had it,and naturally slept it off in a day or two what the fukk is that even accomplishing? we're at the "the vaccine is out and we're giving it out asap" stage. testing barely sick people is NOT changing the urgency of the vaccine effort
