Clearly, COVID is racist. It has affected the black community much more than any other. Black communities all over America have ignored stay at home orders and social distancing suggestions, and that virus seems to attack them. Wish Kit was here to discuss.

Deputies hit by bottles at massive block party in Florida

"Deputies in Florida said they were hit with cups of alcohol, bottles and bar stools after they made arrests at a weekend block party involving thousands of party-goers, officials reported Monday....
Glass bottles were thrown at patrol vehicles while the arrests were made. A deputy injured his knee, and an police officer who was hit by a jar had a minor head injury, the sheriff's office said.

A passenger in a vehicle pointed a rifle or shotgun in the direction of a deputy and pedestrians gathered at a gas station, according to the sheriff's office... Some party-goers said they were targeted because the crowd was largely African American, but Sheriff Mike Chitwood said in a news release that the actions by deputies were aimed at keeping the public safe. Deputies were at the block party for crowd control and to keep cars from blocking traffic, not for enforcing social distancing as a result of the coronavirus, the sheriff's office said.

Nursing homes are the ideal candidates for catastrophic breakouts, and unless they get serious about protecting them, it's going to keep happening all over the country world. Washington State SHOULD have been a wake up call about the vulnerability of nursing homes. Some people are just sound sleepers I guess.
And the attitudes of a lot of people who couldn't give a flip about a "bunch of old people" dying is atrocious.

Emails reveal slow response to nursing home's deadly COVID-19 outbreak

The vendor informed the state on the 27 that he had been told that the nursing home would not test anyone, even if they were symptomatic -- and that, he added, "just does not seem right, clinically or ethically.

We had one nursing facility in my area hit pretty hard by it. The others fortunately have stepped up and are doing regular testing of residents and staff, and following other precautions.

Meharry doctor says COVID-19 drug stops virus from spreading

“When the virus gets inside the cell, the protein layer around the virus somewhat opens up and allows the virus to drift inside the cytoplasm," said Dr. Alcendor. "Our reagent will interact with the virus at that moment so that if you interact at a very early stage, there’s no downstream viral proteins that are going to be made. So, it will shut replication down at the earliest stages and there are no viruses going to be made. We shut the virus down completely.”

Apple and Google Release Chinese Virus Contact Tracing Tech

AP News reports that tech giants Apple and Google released smartphone technology on Wednesday to notify users that they may have been in contact with individuals who have been exposed to the Wuhan coronavirus. 22 countries and several states in the United States are planning to build voluntary phone apps using their software.
https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2020...e-release-chinese-virus-contact-tracing-tech/

Which U.S. states are using Apple’s Exposure Notification API for COVID-19 contact tracing?

And how pray tell can a phone app know if you have been in contact with infected people when nobody is being tested daily using instant serological tests? This is asinine.

I can tell that people think "reopening" means "don't need to be careful anymore."
