    1. @52 80 “All thugs who committed felonies” 1- We do preemptive arrests now in America? 2- What felonies have they committed? 3- What make them “thugs” their skin color? 4- Haven’t Trump committed many felonies like sexually assaulting dozens of women, Trump University scam,Trump Organisation shut down for fraud, named co-conspirator by the the Southern District of New York alongside Michael Cohen for illegal hush money payment to Stormy Daniels…he even got impeached by the House for violating the Constitution so gtfoh fool 2- Obama was harassed by Trump for years with that racist conspiracy theory and Trump ended up saying he was lying but we African Americans will never forget how racist that was and how racist his cult was for spreading that debunked conspiracy.

    2. @brian woodward democrats are loyal to their country republics dont know who their enemy is i mean Trump.

    3. Mass animal, bird, and marine life deaths worldwide have been taking place, now along with humans with the Coronavirus and other plagues which many believe corresponds to the prophecy in Hosea 4:3: “Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.” More information: http://www.end-times-prophecy.org/animal-deaths-birds-fish-end-times.html

    1. People need to start asking themselves why are they running from something has that has killed less people in the United States than last years influenza flu virus, and that was with a vaccination already in place. In 2018 1.8 million people died worldwide from tuberculosis, highly infectious and contagious disease of the lungs. Where was the social distancing and mask wearing then? Didn’t exist folks, and the economy was not affected. You sheep need to start doing your own damn research stop regurgitating what you hear on the news.

    2. Oh we have a clown alright. We have Boris Johnson. The promoter of herd immunity. He’s like Trumps mini me.

    3. @Matt S the death rate of people infected with covid is much higher than flu. Thats why we are locking down to stop the spread.

  1. May God continues to protect all the Drs, Nurses, cleaning ppl, and all rest who are constantly helping all the patients worldwide. It is an amazing and incredible dedication. Our Heroes now and forever.Will continue to pray for their safety.

    1. My eyes are so dead and glasses over it would be a welcome addition, my alzheimers needs company.

    2. You can wear a Visor, like the one a character on Star Trek wore. But, use a clear visor so you can see through it.

    1. _dotConnector they’re just getting you ready, you know how impatient people get when they were waiting for Their ticket to the great beyond.

  2. I’m a nurse from Germany and when l saw your visiers l was happy to see that you’re protected as far as can be. I hope the second wave will begin when medicin is found or worldwide it could be found a vaccination for all and haveable for all, rich and poor, for people with and without health insurance, with or without flat, due to humanity! I’m out of work cause chronicly deseased by working too hard like so many of us, docs, too, suffer on working till the border of falling out completely, l pray for you!

    1. ​@Fox 400 Fox 400 USA same like Germany. Nobody in the United States can not safe from the activities of jihad terrorists.

  3. Trump didn’t prepare for the first wave of the coronavirus

    Trump is not ready for the second wave for sure.

    1. Giovanni Soave Because the Democrat Governor of NY with the most populous city in the nation was prepared? Zero prepared. It’s not the federal government’s responsibility. It’s the state and local that are responsible.

    2. You muts! The US is giving ventilators to other countries which had been in a state of emergency long before the US. Quickest and the least invasive tests ever developed also… How’s Italy doing, Giovanni? Dum asses!

    3. They finally did randomized testing in California. The infection rate is far higher than was claimed by only testing deathly ill patients in the hospitals. It puts the death rate at 0.15%. The death rate of the seasonal flu is 0.1% to 0.2%. Corona is equivalent to an average flu season.

    4. @rolback absolutely correct. The governors are more powerful within their individual states than the President is. Maybe people will start to learn a thing or two about how their government had always worked.

  4. Our NHS Staff are absolutely wonderful, we owe them such a huge debt, I doubt that we will ever be able to thank them enough. THANK YOU NHS FOR EVERYTHING there UK salutes you all.

  5. These are the best of us, surely. Those who go against the current and run towards the fight for others voluntarily as the world runs away. Bless them.

  6. The morons baying to get back to normal should be forced to watch this doctor. It was heartbreaking.

    1. Sweden is one of the biggest countries in Europe in size with one of the smallest populations. They have 9 million people compared to England, Italy, etc there are much smaller in size but with a huge population. Population density matters a lot.

    2. urbanimage Exactly! Not enough is known about this virus, so predicting how it will behave in a person’s body who has recovered, is pure speculation. There are so many variables to consider – what part of the world are you in, what pathogens are in the air at any given time, is there something about the person’s fitness, genetic makeup, blood type, etc. It’s going to be months if not years before we really start to get real answers.

  7. No one will ever understand the impact of watching someone die…..the feeling of helplessness is overwhelming.

  8. It’s little consolation, I know, if you’re dealing with the sharp end of this pandemic, but the severe cases make up only 3 per cent of the total hospitalized. 20 per cent of those, sadly, will die. But the vast majority will eventually recover, thanks to this incredible care – which, as Americans must agonizingly know, in our country is free at the point of delivery. You get no bill.
    Most who die are elderly with underlying conditions. Many have been weakened over a lifetime of exposure to inner-city and industrial pollution. The real horror is hidden – those who die at home or in care homes that have no protections, and whose deaths have not even been counted. Our government was warned of this in remarkable detail less than a year ago and, obsessed with Brexit, did nothing to prepare. Yours has been led by an ignorant, self-serving sociopath – a man with no experience of crisis management or real leadership. We can only hope that one day there will be a reckoning.
