    1. 🙂 Days until you get biden!!! He will not help you in anyway. Idc because I work and pay taxes. You need to acknowledge that.

    2. @Slothy
      Well i am glad to hear that one more trumpunzee acknowledges that Emperor hiro cheeto cheetolini lost. Good for a start.

  1. Only 39,385 minutes left to go till January 20th/2021 when Donald tRump has to leave the White House!

    1. Slovenly Sloth : I can break it down for you into seconds except the number is too high for you to calculate, compute & imagine.

    2. I make it 38, 880 mins., it’s just gone 24th., midnight, London, GMT.
      Happy Christmas 🤶 🎅 😷☃️🦌😷

  2. If people don’t believe they have COVID on their hospital bed, give them a box of hydroxy chloroquine, a bottle of Clorox and a UV flashlight (not to be administered orally but shoved up their planet Uranus) and send them home telling them you’re right, it’s a flu…that’s what they wanna hear anyway.

    1. Agree!!! People spread this by ignoring how serious it is!! I’d have a hard time treating someone who doesn’t think it’s real!!
      Would love to shove a UV light where the sun don’t shine!

  3. 2,355,860 seconds to go until January 20th/2021/12:00 noon. After which Donald tRump has to vacate & quit squatting at the peoples White House. Either tRump goes peacefully or he’ll be dragged out bonespurs feet first!

  4. Christmas will make it worse. I am hoping to see the numbers start to level off by Ground Hog Day and start to decrease by Valentines Day. Until then, don’t have a heart attack or an automobile accident if you can help it. Hospital care is going to get shaky.

  5. “ICU Nurse Shares Story Of Losing Her Father To Covid” motivating us, the people of America, to redouble our efforts to rapidly find out at any given moment, including even while On-Line, who among us are unwittingly contagious (i.e. pre-symptomatic or asymptomatic) in order to #ConvinceItForward for them to call their doctor and to self-quarantine per CDC guidelines in hopes of stopping this pandemic instead of having more #MourningInAmerica even for the worse-case scenario of the #UKvariant strain mutations and others like the #Cluster5Mink mutations rendering current vaccines no longer effective.

  6. This nurse is one of thousands of people giving up everything to help others with out even a second thought, working 12 hour shifts and longer every day. I’m in the VA hospital right now, honestly stunned by what I’m seeing. These people ( nurses and doctors ) not only in the VA but all over our country are true hero’s self-sacrificing and barely getting the recognition they deserve. I thank my nurses every day for being here and taking care of everybody, I don’t have covid I have other issues, I’ve been here since Sept, haven’t seen my family ( locked down because of covid ) missing my wife’s birthday, thanksgiving, Christmas and both my grandsons birthdays. The nurses are here with me every day. Please let’s not forget what these people have given up and even lost to be at the hospitals making life as good as they can for.the people in need. I am, We are in their debt.

    1. Hope you can get well soon.
      I agree that all the nurses, doctors and other essential workers are heroes and should be recognized as such.
      Good wishes to you for the holidays.
