How Can We Learn From The Mistakes That Resulted In Thousands Of COVID-19 Deaths? | MSNBC

A Columbia University model shows that an earlier coronavirus shutdown in the U.S. could have saved tens of thousands of lives. Are we doing enough to avoid another surge of fatalities as states reopen?

  1. The only way to avoid it is to have a real president running the country. Someone that have a heart and some brain cells left in the body.

    1. Someone like Joe Biden! You do not have to agree 100 or 80% of what democrats say/do, but the orange-utan does not care!!! Joe Biden does care, he has heart and soul, wich don sorely lacks.
      Sad.., but true!

    2. @bibia666 Listen, you dog faced pony soldiers, when I worked at that pool,
      my leg hair would stand up and the kids would jump on my lap and
      I loved kids jumping on my lap. But those AR-14 machine guns were
      loud, man. If you don’t believe that, you’re full of malarkey because
      families need to listen to records after dinner and Corn Pop was
      a bad dude, man just ask my sister…or my wife… which one are you, man?
      Hi! I’m Andy Biden and I’m running for the senate!

    1. True. It’s THAT simple. Even if u love trump…come on folks, u know he hesitated to take it seriously, dozens of government officials say the same (many left AND right wing intelligence officials agree)

    2. Yep, good example is Germany. Merkel (with a scientific background) did an excellent job!

    1. @Vvoh vaelez You mean like right to choose to wear a mask; the right to take hydroxychloroquine? Or perhaps, the right accept risk; or go walk on the beach; or go to work? Good point.

    2. Nancy Pelosi visited San Francisco’s Chinatown to encourage tourism there three weeks after the Trump administration imposed a partial travel restriction on persons entering the U.S. from China

    3. @ihave35cents That’s a fact. She made a mistake; it was a politically motivated stunt and, she didn’t listen to the “experts”. Nancy Pelosi is a danger to all.

    4. @ihave35cents Hey Dunce. The Virus entered the US from Europe, Not China. But what do facts matter to a Trumpateer puppet.

  2. 22 January: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. We have it under control. It’s going to be just fine.”

    24 February: “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA… Stock Market starting to look very good to me!”

    26 February: “We’re going very substantially down, not up” and “The 15 [cases] within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero”

    27 February: “One day it’s like a miracle, it will disappear”

    6 March “I think we’re doing a really good job in this country at keeping it down… a tremendous job at keeping it down”
    “Anybody right now, and yesterday, anybody that needs a test gets a test. And the tests are beautiful. They are perfect just like the letter was perfect. The transcription was perfect. Right? This was not as perfect as that but pretty good”
    “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”

    1. All those weeks he denied the severity of this virus, so many lives lost because he wanted to save the stock market not people..

    2. Soupy Sales rule apples here. “Kids, we want to hear from you. Please keep your letters to 25 words or less.”

  3. We people can learn.., the orange-utan has shown (time after time) he can NOT learn.., not in a thousend years!

    1. @The best channel All you have to do is watch him. He addresses problems, like reporters’ questions; supply chain needs (PPE), and other things, as soon as the arise. Why am I telling you? You’re a liar, adhering to a lie.

    2. john emeigh Why would I want to watch him, he whines like a child and is annoying to even hear

    1. Which is why it’s referred to as “pathological lying.” It’s a sickness that keeps feeding itself… the more he lies, the more he needs to lie, in order to cover for all of his past lies.

    2. As in Stephen King stories, he predicted that someday Satan will lead America. The day has come. The Satan is orange.

    1. @Muddy Water is that the troll comment of the day. Can you vote from a Russian bot farm?

    2. @The Geek Is Strong… you made a comment about Trump’s reelection and I asked if you can vote in that election. How is that trolling?

  4. Enough with the music! I’m trying to get some news, and here you have this annoyingly loud music competing with the Doctors trying to give us the news and information. The news is somber enough!!!

  5. “If you build it they will come.” – Field of Dreams (1989)
    The federal government MUST build up the confidence of we the people (red and blue) before we will come back into the economy.
    Thus far, the Trump Regime has failed to build that confidence.

  6. Elect someone that know what they are doing? Or at least someone that knows when to listen to expert.

  7. 0:19 Nancy Was Dancing In The Streets Of China Town San Francisco. That’s the first I heard of that one. Even from Trump. It’s everyone elses fault but Trumps. For his whole career that’s been his MO.
