Not the local elected leaders?
These nurses and doctors are in the front line battling an infectious disease where’s their Ammunition Trump.
That’s a good point. With John Hopkins and Gates running the exact scenario out in event 201 and Fauci and Gates both predicting a pandemic. It’s unbelievable that the hospitals didn’t prepare better for this. I mean they cannot say that nobody saw this coming right? Kinda funny how they predicted it down to the type of the disease isn’t it. Also kinda funny the very people that predicted it are the ones who funded the Wuhan lab and are set to profit from it and push their agenda.
If I was a conspiracy theorist I would go as far to say that they could have had a hand in releasing it. Funding the lab that it supposedly came from, funding the WHO that lied to us about the severity, pushing their vaccine agenda and even predicting it? Fishy to say the least isn’t it?
Does anyone know if “management” is on the front lines, or far from the action, at desks with computers, moving staff around like chess pieces?
“I spoke with several levels of management and was told I could not go home,” Mumford said.

@Jacob Moncrief (during this last mont I haven’t hear deaths from regular flu but covid 19 got more 46,800 + in usa ,but okay let’s leave that behind )
you’re missing an important word,CONTAGIOUS , does it worth if people go to work 2 weeks and get sick on the third one and maybe die ( I dont think so !!), even worst if they pass the virus to their family , friends ,neighbors or even an stranger ,idk about you but I’m sure lot of people will have nightmares if they know that someone die because they got bored in their house ,and wanted a hair cut .
Do we want to work ?,ofcourse we want that, and the only solution is stay home , minimize the virus and if everybody do that , and as soon as we got less contagious ,we will back to work soon .
But now there are lot of morons protesting , and because of them there will be more cases and the quarantine will extend
@leo G You are the moron. This virus is admitted to be just as bad as the flu. If you can’t figure out on your own that you are being played I can’t help you. The information is out there. You have doctors from California coming out and saying the mortality rate is not bad enough to stay home and quarantine. You have studies coming out from top universities proving the mortality rate to be 0.1 to 0.3 percent . The CDC sent letters to doctors encouraging them to mark down deaths as covid19 even if it’s a hunch. And don’t even get me started on the test that has an 80 percent false positive rate. They sold us in a strict lockdown saying millions would die. Then that said with social distancing it would lower that to 200 to 300 thousand dead. So far today the death numbers are 50k in the USA. Less than the flu. You are so brainwashed that you can’t even think for yourself you just repeat talking points you heard in the news. I bet you have no clue how the testing works and why some doctors are speaking out against the lockdown because of the testing procedures. Whatever. When the dust settles I will come back to this post to rub it in your silly face about how wrong you are
@Jacob Moncrief dam relax dude? You can’t even have a conversation ? Did you make up that info?
During a March 11 hearing of the House Oversight and Reform Committee on coronavirus preparedness, Anthony Fauci, MD, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, put it plainly: The seasonal flu that we deal with every year has a mortality of 0.1%, he told the congressional panel, whereas coronavirus is 10 times more lethal than the seasonal flu(he minimized that because they didnt allowed him to say the true )
Do you want to talk about testing ? Okay , did you know that trump privatized the development of tests from private labs , CDC was the only one allowed to do that (so he can take all the credit , that’s why he said that there are tests for whoever who wants to take one ). CDC made more than 160k and only used less than 4k and threw away the rest because they didnt work . Then they change the game and allowed every company to develop test and cure .
In your opinion,doctors are saying that covid is not that bad ?more than 9,000 health care personnel have been infected and at least 35+ have died for covid ( those people are putting their life in risk and there are morons who want them to put their life in risk again ,because they cant stay home )
But if you dont believe that ,that’s fine but promised if u get infected do not go to the hospital and put in risk the life of the health care personnel
Listen to the science not the orange liar, stay safe USA.

this is how you protest durring something like this. Face masks social distancing. Looks like adults doing adult things.
@Cliff Medina Buttar was born in London in 1966 and immigrated with his parents to the U.S. at the age of 9. He attended Washington University, graduating with a degree in biology and theology, and then earned his degree in osteopathy at Des Moines University. According to his website, he worked as a surgeon with the U.S. Army for several years but did not achieve any medical qualification.[3]
He came to public attention in 2009 when he used chelation therapy on a woman named Desiree Jennings, who claimed to have lost her ability to walk or talk normally after receiving a flu shot.[1][4] He has been criticized for his use of chelation,[1] and for his use of intravenous hydrogen peroxide to treat cancer.[5]
In 2007, Buttar was charged by the North Carolina Board of Medical Examiners with unethical treatment of four cancer patients.[6] The panel recommended that Buttar’s “license be suspended indefinitely, but that the suspension be immediately stayed”.[7] In 2010 the board, in response to this and other concerns, chose to formally reprimand Buttar but allowed him to continue to practice.
paid props behaving correctly , nice job
@C gatz ya they are paid to keep everyone alive. Your rite.
@ECLECTIC AGITATOR Dumb bot.
ECLECTIC AGITATOR What are you on buddy? You don’t seem very well.
This is the right way to protest…take notes covid/trump rallies 😂
@Mind Freshener haha not everyone can be a peasant like to you to beg money, all they want is proper equipment while treating patients. But oh but you got the job of boot – licking politicians right.🤣🤣🤣
Even Your level person Calling others whores is just funny seems like a self troll.
@hey elite All they want is to get paid for the PsyOp, you dumass. 😁 😂 🤣
Jacob Moncrief It spreads faster than flu and is as deadly as it even with social distancing and lockdown. Isn’t this scary enough? Last time we had something like this we lost up to half a trillion people worldwide.
@Jacob Moncrief so the flu killed 45,000 americans in 4 months last year did it? the flu kills 2000 a day in peak season? your mass shooters can only dream of numbers like that. but hey, as long as yanks are dying, who cares. saves china the trouble of nuking you later, they can just watch you infect each other and pretend it’s not happening 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Stay away from them there liberal 5G towers and you’ll be plum fine, Cleetus.
Trump rallies are peaceful, its the lefties, antifas and libs that are usually violent , and you know it. nice try though
This is the only protest that should be happening!!
The rest of the world is incredulous that the Trump lackeys are protesting measures to save their lives.
@David Guelette You are propagandized. One can see that from the fact you think only Trump supporters support the 1st Amendment
Afterwards, they went on tik tok and danced
And reported on every day!
No, they should be at work.
Now this is a protest that makes sense
No. They should be in the hospital helping sick people instead of wasting all of our time.
Real nurses don’t protest
@Cahoula exactly.
@Nestle Snipes Your ignorance is showing. You have no idea what nurse do you troll
You are ignorant saying that Nestle Snipes don’t know what nurses do.
Thats exactly where people need to protest. Trump needs to see this. Trump has blood on his hands.
@SPZ Aruba They should have been put in quarantine, how good is a ban if more than 40 000 possibly infected people go about the country unchecked?
@Gilles Charbonneau Nobody knew then, what we know now. We can should, would, could this for years, but the CCP didn’t even confirm there was a problem to their own people until 24 January.
@SPZ Aruba does not change the fact that Trump’s ban was full of holes, and that those who came from China infected the US, Trump lies, again, when he said he blocked travellers from China, and you know it!
Where were you during H1N1 when thousands were dead before Obama lifted a finger?
@Nestle Snipes The Obama administration declared swine flu, or H1N1, a public health emergency six weeks before H1N1 was declared a pandemic.
No H1N1 deaths had yet been recorded in the United States.
Six months after that initial declaration, when more than 1,000 deaths had occurred, Obama himself declared H1N1 a national emergency.
Check your facts, stop listening to Rush Limbah and the likes!
Its bad enough in the Uk but Trump even makes Boris Johnson look good .
Miguel De Adeje Dwumpf even makes PolPot look better.
Putin must be very happy with Trump screwing the America people 👎
China bootlicker
@Have a nice Dave Inbred, mouth breathing trailer trash
Grumleback, you are a China bootlicker too. Go move to China and take your baby killing party with you.
Wow 😳
I’m with the Nurses ❤️🙏🏼✊.🌊 . Protect our Doctors and Nurses please.
Trump is a pitiful excuse for a man and a President.
SouthSide Chicago aren’t they sad, what a bunch of losers !!
Yess
He’s accomplished more than you ever have.
I won’t subscribe to that. He has to complete his terms. But no Romneys, Bushes, or McCain types.
Thanks for the SPAM comment and not replying to anybody.
It’s very easy trump! Just RESIGN! That way you don’t have to worry about helping people, just RESIGN!
@Cahoula How do we know who died from coronavirus in Jan when they did not testing?
Because the hospitals and clinics were not being filled with sick people all the way out the door. Were there hospitals setting up beds in the hallways for the sick people in January?
@Cahoula We are talking about being informed and doing nothing to prevent it. He knew it was on the way and did nothing. He made it seem like the democrats were just trying to get him again.
He did more than any other leader including the leadership in China. How can you say nothing was done? Are you living under a rock? The impeachment attempt was still the topic. Yes Democrats and probably yourself were out to get him. Any other thing you would like me to explain?
@Cahoula Put down the crack pipe
This is what i called a protest. Asking for protection to saving people lives is good.
I bet this will not be reported in Fox News because this will make Trump upset
Fox and Trump should be “LOCKED UP”!!!!!
@Larry Nelson DOA
MS. Parker you should be lock up!
You are sexually obsessed with the president.
“Fix” reality show is a propaganda tv program how much money has those billionaire kids who own that station giving back??
How shocking, people in a peaceful protest without flags, guns, and BS. Someone get this footage to the deplorables and let them know that this is what civil means.
The US flag?? Comrade.
@Jessica H I’m not your comrade. That flag has more meaning than oh poor me I’m quarantined.
No doubt Trump will accuse the nurses of being Democrat agitators and never Trumper’s.
No, he places blame Soros Loser’s MSM Propaganda. All this ‘noise’ is George getting back at Trump for losing so Bigly to him and not having his chosen one in office.
@TILT Super nurses!
You gone learn today. 😂
@Noodles Foodles Must be………..
” The AVENGERS NURSES”
I say the doctors and nurses just walk off before the secind wave hits.
So true….karma will check on him
“home of the brave, land of the free” just can’t protect the medical staff.
Free to catch corona, and not have free healthcare…
Compare this protest to the rabid, mob-rule, profanity-hurling gangs that support Trump. (One woman was outraged because she couldn’t get her nails done and hair styled!) OH! The suffering!!!!
