COVID-19 Deaths Reach A Grim Milestone In The U.S. | Morning Joe | MSNBC

93 comments

  1. This could have been avoided, they wasted the first lockdown by not making sure the situation was handled.

    Political image put ahead of the public good.

    1. @Tray Day 216 THIS IS A PANDEMIC AND ALL OF THE PEOPLE WERE WORKING YOU MORON. HOW DARE YOU TELL ANYONE WHAT TO DO WHEN TRUMP IS THE CAUSE OF THIS CURRENT SITUATION. HE DID NOT CLOSE THE BORDER TO CHINA BECAUSE 40K PLUS PEOPLKE CAME THROUGH.

    2. Just two days late, Trump’s birthday gift to the nation will be 3 million covid cases and 133,000 covid deaths, even as he claims that 99% of the cases are harmless.

    3. @Crystal Giddens Why then, did the Health Ministry enlist the help of Mossad, (world-wide) to “procure” the needed medical supplies and know-how, to combat the virus, when they listened to the wrong people (Yitzhak Ben-Israel) about how limited the virus would be?

  2. When Trump is removed from office, after the election, he has to be kept accountable and be charged for his crimes.

    1. It will take a 100 years to go through his crimes. I’m in no doubt he will end up in prison one day.

  3. Wearing a mask is mainly to protect others from you. Try this: stand 3 feet in front of a mirror and spit at it. Now try that with your nose and mouth covered.
    See a difference?
    A mask will help protect against direct contact with the virus but snot and spittle CAN still land on the mask, your hair, your uncovered face and your clothing from someone not wearing a mask. If someone sees YOU are not wearing a mask why should THEY wear one too protect YOU? Set an example.

    1. Glen OstrowskI right now these days —NOT MUCH—-I’m safer at the hospital than you are st the supermarket duhhhhhhh

    2. @William H If you’re infected with the corona virus, you’re already infected!!!!! CFM !!!!!

    1. Why? That’s what they cheated to get. So deal with it. Bunch of ignoramus types down there. Straight trash.

    2. @takamex that shows 130,000 dead. That is what the news reported. How is your link any different. Bwahaha

    1. @G Eak
      And yet no one hardly showed up to your pacifier in chief trailer park rally. Your “numbers” are moot. Did you sign a waiver? If not then STFU

  4. *While Americans continue dying from Covid in the THOUSANDS…*

    *👉Trump is golfing and throwing rallies!👈*

    *#BrokenAmerica** 😔*

    1. @J. Lo He allowed American citizens to return to America from China with no quarantine !!!!!! How fecking stupid is that???!!!!!!

    2. @Crystal Giddens Sunshine – keep up!!! The US peaked (like other countries of a similar culture), subsided a little and is now seeing an exponential increase in the number of new infections. The number of infections are NOT rapidly declining in America. Deaths will follow in 3 to 4 weeks. Professor Ben’s theory has a hole in it big enough to drive a bus through it.

      This means that the US is not similar in culture to all those other countries. It just has trump and the republicans screwing things up.

    3. @takamex
      Another conspiracy theorist nut job. Your link is infected with malware like your cognitive abilities.

  5. The overarching duty of any government is to protect the people and this is a dreadful dereliction of duty by your president and his administration.

    1. That is an uneducated opinion. The duty of the US government is to protect the rights of the people.

    2. @Jeff Gibson I beg to differ. In my original comment I mentioned “any government” not the US government, which has failed time and again not only to protect it’s people but also to uphold the rights of those people.

    3. @Jeff Gibson You mean like the right to peacefully protest and the right to a free press? Those rights?

    4. @Jeff Gibson Then why do they infringe on your freedumbs by making you wear seat belts, drive on only one side of the road, and not get drunk before driving?

    1. You need to go back to 6th grade arithmetic. 60% with have been exposed and developed antibodies. Only one in a thousand will get sick or die.

    2. @Jeff Gibson what kind of statistic is that ???? 1/1000 ???? dude it’s a pandemic !!!! im not good with maths but i believe it’s 5/100 PER DAY and just a few days ago US hit 50k infected cases !!!! and this is just a simple statistic math , which means it’s higher than that (according to ” every day is a new reacord” in US )

    3. @Matthew Trần Of course every day is a new record because the total number can never go down. People cannot UN-DIE. The only statistic that counts is the number of NEW deaths and New hospitalizations everyday. 235 new deaths yesterday. The epidemic is almost over.

    4. @Jeff Gibson 235 is not almost over for my opinion== 0 deaths is almost over . 0 deaths and less than 10 infected cases (0 would be better) means that it’s over ==
      ” 1 deaths is too many ” -> i agreed with Chump on this statement !!!

  6. WARNING :- THE OFFICIAL TRUMP ADMINISTRATION – COVID 19 RESPONSE :- BELOW.

    Blank page!

    1. @Killroy was here WARNING:- ….. VERY SOON THE DOCTORS , NURSES AND AUXILIARY STAFF ARE GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY ILL AND NOT BE ABLE TO WORK, …..THE HOSPITAL BEDS ARE GOING TO BE FULL UP……THE VENTILATORS AND OXYGEN SUPPLIES WILL RUN OUT ……AND THEN AMERICAN’S ARE GOING TO START DYING……. “IN HUGE NUMBERS”……AND THATS TRUMPS FAULT …..THEN GOD HELP US!!

    2. @Eli Dicken All any sane person has to do is look at a graph of all cases, No way you can say we don’t have the most and we are going to keep it that way, See trump is banking on this murderous rampage he is on will build herd immunity! It is not science, it is Steven Miller and Jarred Kushner high on crack again! When every third world country has it handled and are laughing at us! I guess they know more than us and trump!

    3. @Killroy was here So are you saying that to get to the USA .. KIM would first give the virus to his ONE an only best communist friend ….CHINA! The China that provides him with a lot since the USA has so many SANCTIONS on them they can barely fart….. You understand that China got the virus first… You can actually follow the wave across the globe all the way to the USA.  
      I really don’t understand WHY American people think the USA is the only country on planet earth.

    1. @William H ..why is Trump getting tested daily? And taking hydroxychloroquine?
      Donnie Jr’s girlfriend just tested positive… More lies coming out of the “Trump regime?”

    2. If he survived, he’d be “How could anybody have known how terrible this disease is? Nobody knew!”

    3. “I have the strongest immune system. Really, it’s incredible. My people are telling me, have told me, that maybe we can treat the virus by drinking my blood? Maybe we could do something like that?”

    1. Crystal Giddens you should tell the Red States that are exploding with cases, instituting mask mandates, killing Trumps base the seniors, and wrecking the economy what youve discovered.

      It might help Puppets tanking Presidency?

      🤔🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

    2. @takamex I have better web sites for you! I’ve had them for months now… The news I watch and read shows these graphs….. I actually got these sites from them… It’s a better graph https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/  

      Florida DOH over the past 2-3 weeks they stop posting their DAILY numbers and left graphs only. https://fdoh.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/8d0de33f260d444c852a615dc7837c86

      The entire GLOBE/INTERNATIONAL community follows JOHN HOPKINS numbers, even the news https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/map.html

      Here’s another website that has TONS of graphs…. Which I also got from the news https://ourworldindata.org/blog

  7. It’ll one day dissapear,like magic,unlike magic the criminal dump regime is getting ready to dissapear, right into a prison cell

  8. Thanks to DeSantis and the Korona King, America has become the country all other countries want to build a wall around!

  9. The UK: 285,416 cases
    Germany: 197,633 cases
    Italy: 241,611 cases
    Texas: 200,952 cases
    Florida: 200,011 cases

    The UK: 10,505,758 tests
    Germany: 5,873,563 tests
    Italy: 5,638,288 tests
    Texas: 2,371,709 tests
    Florida: 2,200,199 tests

    Source: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

    Share this information, don’t allow don’t Trump to gaslight people into thinking that the US only has such high cases numbers because it’s done so much testing!! He’s lying to us!!!

    1. “Cases” are meaningless. The ONLY number that counts is sick people-dead people. You look old enough to know that.

    2. So the U.K does 5 times as much testing, but there are almost as much if not more cases in the state of Florida alone than in that entire region? Doesn’t add up.

    3. @David Shaughnessy Well it does add up. The UK took this seriously and now have this under control. Florida doesn’t, hence why a much higher percentage of their tests are coming back positive.

    1. @john emeigh John I like science and “we might like the results,” is still a hypothesis. We can observe what the results will be in appox. 2 weeks.

    2. @john emeigh
      He recognized tyrants. He did not approve of their acts. Unlike conservatives, he was for healing the sick and poor. He was crucified by a dominating government.

    3. @Mar d Yes, you’re right. I’m not playing Nostradamus but, it’s going to come out one way, or the other. I doubt there will be a neutral or innocuous result. The media will exaggerate it greatly, if it’s a negative result. They’ll use it like a truncheon on conservatives, forgetting that Dem. Gov. Whitmer calls the shots.

    4. @Timurphy was here I understand his concepts; you are just trying to politicize them. You are the most obvious and perverse example of virtue signaling there is. You’re a Tammy Faye Baker without the make-up. You have acknowledged there are dominating gov’ts. Republicans are for the weak and needy, and giving them a hand up. How did you spend your stimulus money, heretic?

    5. @john emeigh when it comes to this virus I’m not political. Where I am located all political parties shoved their differences aside and worked on ‘flattening the curve.” It was actually refreshing to have them work together instead of flinging mud at each other. As for the media – what can I tell you? I’m a bit lucky, a good friend of mine is a scientist and I go to him with questions.

    *March 6:* _-“I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it… Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president.”_

    *March 10:* _-“It will go away. Just stay calm. It will go away.”_
    *March 12:* _-“It’s going to go away. … The United States, because of what I did and what the administration did with China, we have 32 deaths at this point … when you look at the kind of numbers that you’re seeing coming out of other countries, it’s pretty amazing when you think of it.”_

    1. Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder is one of those diseases NOT being treated while doctors are locked down.

    2. You have WAY too much free time on your hands, at least charge him for renting out your brain every day…

    3. @David Shaughnessy Yeah. I’m not staring at State Propaganda “Faux “News” 24/7 that’s for sure. You should try it.

    4. @Michel F Don’t like your own comments, it’s unbecoming. And I don’t watch the news, I come here for the comments from idiots, and you guys didn’t let me down today.

  11. 130,000 was the projected deaths count by August. A lot of deaths could have been prevented with social distancing and masks

  12. TRUMP HAS REPEATEDLY STATED “AMERICA FIRST.” BUT, HE FAILED TO MENTION AMERICA FIRST IN REPORTED CASES OF COVID-19.
