I’m looking through my states nursing home statistics and WOW! This virus is wreaking havoc. At least half a dozen facilities have over 100 cases. The number of staff infected is mind boggling.

A 182 bed facility near me has 89 resident cases / 29 Staff / 10 resident deaths. Just....wow.
I read that Gov. Hogan is now ordering mandatory coronavirus testing at all of the nursing homes.

Likely why these stats are a mess! More testing means more positive cases. One facility found out more than 80 residents were positive on the same day! Another facility has 43 staff members infected! How do you replace that many workers??

I imagine these workers (many asymptomatic) live or shop near these facilities. That’s kinda scary.

Yes, it's scary. I will continue to stay in the house. I don't have a problem with that at all.

I am concerned about the covidiots storming the govt house in MI. What message is that sending to the rest of em?
These folks are armed with semi automatic weapons and God knows what else. Frankly it looks like ish is about to pop all the way off. They are setting the stage for a massacre the size of which we havent seen since our last mass shooting.
Its triggering. This country is falling apart by the second....

The incident in Michigan is revealing a prism of how a certain facet of Americans feel. I’m confused because are they up in arms because they feel their civil liberties are being tread upon or are they really financially strapped and need to return to work ASAP?

No matter which way they lean towards the guns are unnecessary. Michigan and any other state that allows guns to be in a governmental building needs to rethink such a law.

I too used the ignore button too for the first time...it makes a world of difference:look:

Well not to long ago, 45, sent out 3 tweets and one of them said to Liberate Michigan. Since this Pandemic started, he's been nothing but inflammatory, riling up citizens and his fanbase. People are scared, tired, and want normalcy. But not once he has given an air of assurance or calm.

Okay so DD’s workplace now have two patient with Covid-19. I asked how did that happen? She stated they are tracing that but believe it is due to two evening nurses that work at more than one facility. She stated management is pissed considering all the safeguards and protective measures they took early in the process. Plus having to explain this to their high paying clientele. As expected, some sent their private planes or cars to pickup their family member.

Hello Ladies,

I live in Michigan. I was just horrified at this news. First of all these MAGA people are feeding into Trumps maladjustment in a woman disputing him. The pandemic shelter in place is to save lives. I think this criminals need to be identified, arrested and prosecuted. These I dare say were white officers faced with arresting white people with this second amendment deception. I think it is illegal to pull guns on elected officials. They wished to intimidate. Our elected officials are wearing bullet proof vests to work. The people screaming to be let into the street cannot be accomodated in a hospital. I'm sorry I do not care if they live. Forgive me. People from Michigan blew up the Oklahoma Federal building.
I don't appreciate attempts to threaten our lawmakers and don't back down governor Whitmer. :detective: trump's failures to act are linked to voter suppression

People in Canada who do not qualify for a stimulus check are still applying, and getting it. One woman who is a pensioner applied, she also applied for her 2 disabled children (or grands kids?) who are not working and got 12K in one month (6k was retroactive). you have to be working previously, and laid off because of COVID-19. I don’t qualify because I was unemployed before all of this. One guy I know is still working and collecting his 2k per month. The gov agency doing the payout are aware of these scammers and they’re like “oh, well” we will decide what to do with them later... I hope they get a huge tax bill next year. Do I sound salty? Maybe I am lol. I’m too chicken to even go there. I also worked too hard to put my license in jeopardy. They say they won’t prosecute but who knows. They may change their minds...
