Biden just made his sleeper speech on how badly Trump has handled this situation.
A POLITICAL campaign speech.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Will you only care when it is your parents or other older relatives that are dying alone in a hospital?
Will you only care when it is you?
Again, stop playing this like it is politics. It is a virus. And the only way to stop it is to do what will stop it from spreading. And the only way to know what that is is to listen to the science and the data.
Right now we need to keep our distance when we can and wear masks properly, diligently, when we can't
I never said anything "antiscience" - I was just referring to how the liberals are the one's politicizing the virus. There were "studies" that showed that the riots did not increase COVID cases, but they were warning that Trump's rally would increase cases, and only a few days after the rally they were claiming it did so when there is no way it could have been tallied that quickly since the incubation period is up to two weeks.

Gov. Abbott establishes statewide face covering requirement, issues proclamation to limit gatherings
AUSTIN, Texas —
Texas Governor Greg Abbott has issued an Executive Order requiring all Texans to wear a face covering over the nose and mouth in public spaces in counties with 20 or more positive COVID-19 cases, with few exceptions.
The governor also issued a proclamation giving mayors and county judges the ability to impose restrictions on some outdoor gatherings of more than 10 people, and making it mandatory that, with certain exceptions, people cannot be in groups larger than ten and must maintain six feet of social distancing from others.
"Wearing a face covering in public is proven to be one of the most effective ways we have to slow the spread of COVID-19,” said Gov. Abbott. “We have the ability to keep businesses open and move our economy forward so that Texans can continue to earn a paycheck, but it requires each of us to do our part to protect one another—and that means wearing a face covering in public spaces. Likewise, large gatherings are a clear contributor to the rise in COVID-19 cases. Restricting the size of groups gatherings will strengthen Texas’ ability to corral this virus and keep Texans safe. We all have a responsibility to slow the spread of COVID-19 and keep our communities safe. If Texans commit to wearing face coverings in public spaces and follow the best health and safety practices, we can both slow the spread of COVID-19 and keep Texas open for business. I urge all Texans to wear a face covering in public, not just for their own health, but for the health of their families, friends, and for all our fellow Texans.”
Additionally, Gov. Abbott released a new video message to coincide with his Executive Order, encouraging Texans to do their part to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and keep their communities safe.

to be sure... the numbers of death in that analysis remained below flu-death levels of other years. the number of deaths did not increase after quarantine ended nor after Memorial Day. So masks have proven to be unnecessary all along.

My big concern is that if all these draconian measures are believed to be able to check something as supposedly deadly as the China flu, then think of how it could stop other less serious diseases dead in their tracks. Will we become a permanently masked and socially distanced culture? After all, if it can save just one life then it's worth it, right?Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
