Maybe because it's getting tiring hearing all the "blame Trump" crap since before he was sworn into office. Over and over again for four damn years we've been hearing allegations but nothing ever turns up. It's a "here we go again" scenario. Did you ever stop to think that perhaps Trump isn't to blame?Not sure why my post triggered a fake news response.
So I Googled it as you suggested....OMG, those darn Republicans, always saying no to the well intentioned liberals.Yeah, conservatives never tried to get in the way of Obama's presidency either, did they?
Google "The Party of No" re: Republican plans starting immediately after the 2008 election.

That won't work....Google is in the DNC's back pocket. Am I suggesting skewed, left-leaning search results?So I Googled it as you suggested....
This is a huge load of bullshit, and while @Oceanslider may actually believe this to be true, it's complete and utter bullshit none-the-less.We have been leading the world, by a huge margin, in wide scale testing for over 4 weeks now. And it just accelerates every day. And your 3-4 months is fake news exaggerating.
48-hours after this experience she gets her test results posted on the website: "Invalid Test: New specimen required".She arrived at 5:25 PM. Major military and police presence at the test site. NO ONE ELSE IS THERE TO BE TESTED. That's right...NO ONE...she's the only person apparently present to be tested. But even though she's the only person/vehicle present, she still has to drive though multiple Military/Police check points. "DON'T ROLL DOWN YOUR WINDOW LADY!" and "TURN OFF YOU AIR-CONDITIONING!" they direct. There are multiple checkpoints to traverse and her identity is confirmed at each checkpoint. She finally reaches the final stop and a person in full Contagion PPE tells her to roll down her window and does a nasal swab on her. "Results in 24-48 hours...move along!" She needs to create an account to get her test results; her password must be "at least 8 characters, 1 uppercase letter, 1 number, and 1 special character"...fuQin' Fort Knox, eh? No results to date; I'll let ya'll know when her result comes in. As I've said previously...she'd be JUST ABOUT DEAD had she been at risk and infected when she first called to get tested many moons ago.
FuQin' A...you got that right brother; spot on.Here's a @Q™ special....fuQn ridiculous what it takes to get a test.
No it is not. Once Trump cut through the red tape, after the CDC error, and got the private sector going, and they were online, we were doing more tests daily than any country had or has been since. We were leading the world in overall daily testing by mid March. And it is just keeps accelerating to this day.This is a huge load of bullshit, and while @Oceanslider may actually believe this to be true, it's complete and utter bullshit none-the-less.
The developed world leads a decadent life. What you put inside your body is a tremendous factor in your overall health and the factors that lead to the conditions of co-morbidity.Many of the cases are involving individuals with co-morbidity. Also, the efficacy of vaccines varies from individual to individual. Again, keeping co-morbidity in mind. It not just COVID-19, its in terms of every virus.

Truth has been spoken!The developed world leads a decadent life. What you put inside your body is a tremendous factor in your overall health and the factors that lead to the conditions of co-morbidity.
If truth be told, diet is also the reason for this pandemic. It is just not right to be containing in the same area and be eating, with very lax hygiene, exotic wildlife of all types from around the world. But I'm still torn on this one. SARS for sure was diet, wet market related. My gut is telling me this one was possibly a mishap related to that Lab south of Wuhan.Truth has been spoken!
American print, television, and Internet advertising media -- in concert with broadcast/cable television and Hollywood -- has spent the past 50-years selling/brainwashing Americans that there are no limits...that Americans can have whatever they want...that we can eat whatever we want...do whatever we want...and we can have it all without consequence. But the truth is that there are consequences to everything we do, and to every action we undertake, and -- as a result -- we now have a lot of obese/sick Americans, and a lot of folks who believe they are entitled to...and deserve...whatever they want...along with a lot of pissed off Americans who are disillusioned because the message was/and-is complete bullshit. Hard, cold, and ruthless as it is to say...perhaps America needs to cull the societal herd and realize a massive die-off to reset the norm and eliminate those whose lazy, indolent, decadent lifestyles have put our entire country at risk. But I guess that's a bitter pill to swallow if it's your mom, your brother, or your friend who falls to the societal death-cure.

The fact was true only for those believed what WHO said.You got the facts wrong. The entire world didn't know about human to human transmission until the very end of January. And South Korea who did get going early, started testing about February 10th and wasn't ramped up until February 17th.
We lagged about 2 weeks behind because our "career officials" in the CDC messed up.
The Asian world has been mask wearers for quite a few years now compared to the USA and Europe and other parts of the world.The fact was true only for those believed what WHO said.
Before mid January, after the news of the Wuhan Pneumonia (that was its name at that time) or new SARS, people in China, Hong Kong and Macau started to stock up medical masks. When there were confirmed case in Hong Kong, Taiwan around 1/21, more and more people started wearing masks.
Just think about how it got spread so quick when there was no human to human transmission? (my response when reading the news of WHO was WT...)
No one in the area believed in that joke, not event the HK SAR and Macau SAR government. People had been asking to close the border.
Before Chinese New Year, which was 1/25, government officials already warned about the crisis of people were traveling to go home and told people not to visit relative familiies.
People from China even traveled to Japan and Korean to buy masks (think about they're also spreading the virus).
Taiwan banned export of medical masks on 1/24.
People in US started scooping up masks from stores and Amazon and shipped them back to China or Chinese area around (some for profits , some for their relatives)
By around 1/27, it's already difficult to buy regular price medical masks from Amazon when my dentist friend offered to buy masks from their medical supplies for our friends.
Those should be the dust masks, not medical grade, I could find still those (unrated) for shipping in Feb or might be Mar. But now even those are long gone.I still saw full pallets of masks at Home Depot locally on February 21st, the last time I went there. I did have a gut instinct saying maybe I should grab a box, but just like the rest of the world, especially Europe, I just did not know that this virus was so infectious.
Japanese have the habit of wearing masks when they're sick, that's really considerate for others, but it's not for protecting from others. Also, common practice for allergic to pollens.The Asian world has been mask wearers for quite a few years now compared to the USA and Europe and other parts of the world.
No they were the 3M P95. I know for sure.Those should be the dust masks, not medical grade, I could find still those (unrated) for shipping in Feb or might be Mar. But now even those are long gone.
Wow, should have had taken the pallets. They're more valuable than toilet papers.No they were the 3M P95. I know for sure.
