    1 of my friends works in a lab in Houston where they process Covid tests

    she told me she works in batches of 96 samples...she told me at the start of the outbreak, there would usually be 1 or 2 positive cases in 1 batch...these days, she’s sometimes finding up to 40 positives in a batch of 96

    SD has gone all in on staying open. Gov. Kristi Noem has been running ads in other states saying they won't shut down. They've already had outbreaks in Sioux Falls and things are bad in reservations. Pine Ridge reservation isn't that far from Sturgis.

    I'm starting to get the feeling being anti-mask is mostly a "White" thing. . . .

    Trump thinks that map means he's polling well... Everything is red that's good right?

    Then the 250,000 or so bikers will go back to where they came from and spread the virus even more around the country.

    When are you going to get this concept into your pretty little head: "We don't give a fukc about anyone but ourselves."
    This is America. That means "I'm free: f!ck you."
    Am I wrong?

    Truly, the American motto is "**** you."

    Then think about when the trump team squeezes press seats together since "it looks better"...

    Journalist tests positive for coronavirus after covering President Trump’s visit to Tampa Bay
    The press member was in the same room as President Donald Trump, U.S. Sen. Rick Scott and Gov. Ron DeSantis.

    Florida sheriffs event attended by Gov. Ron DeSantis was apparently a hotbed of COVID-19

    I’m white, and I wear a mask any time I’m in a public place (which is as little as possible right now), wash my hands constantly and keep my distance from others. There are plenty of other white people like me that are taking this virus seriously and following best practices for containing the spread (my parents, wife, sister and brother in law fall in that group, too.) It’s a bunch of anti-science Trump supporters that are leading the anti-mask movement. They are mostly white, but their hatred of masks has more to do with their crazy politics and world views than anything else.
