1. This thing moves like a nuclear chain reaction once a critical mass of infections are met in an area

... we're heading towards 50,000 cases a day and these bastards still wont shut down

[LastDemocratInSC]

2. They always said the South shall rise again.

3. Fake news. It's no big deal. And it's going to miraculously

disappear.

[ProfessorGAC]

10. Just Like The Flu

Except for the part about being 30 times deadlier. (Based on extrapolations of actual case count estimates, not just confirmed)
Otherwise it could be way more than 30x.

4. I'm listening to Gov. Ducey right now

-Arizona -and he is urging his populace to Stay at home, wear masks.

I've been following AZ a little (family member there) and he has sounded pretty weak until now. I think he's pretty alarmed.

5. Only A Few Weeks Late

Hey Dunce Ducey. THE HORSE HAS LEFT THE BARN, YOU FUCKING MORON!!

The virus is way ahead of you already. You're going to be a lot more alarmed in a couple of weeks.

You and all your Fucking repub pals deserve to die for your actions.

6. He should be.

He’s awfully late, however. I am not cutting him any slack.

7. I'm shocked! Shocked! Well, not that shocked.

In fact I'm not shocked at all. As soon as the pandemic became political, this was inevitable.

Belief in the virus, belief in its mortality, its contagiousness, its severity, and how to deal with it is now political. So the lead Republican decides the virus is no big deal, and his rank-and-file followers and other subordinate elected Republicans follow suit.

And because the pandemic does not give a shit about American domestic politics it's mowing right through all those people.

8. Amazing....Trump's negligence is going to wipe out his own voters......

[mnmoderatedem]

9. Oklahoma

hmmmm....

[Ms. Toad]

11. Ohio has only two higher than today -

and that's only because those two days were massive prison reports.

[Warpy]

12. AZ will be showing peaks on Sat-Mon

That megachurch worship service for Big Dummy was packed.

[gratuitous]

13. Boy, those Soros-paid hoaxsters are really committed to the bit, aren't they?

Who knew there were so many in Oklahoma, Texas, South Carolina, and Florida? Maybe they're being bused in, you know, to embarrass the Republican governors.

*Blink* Nope, even when I type slowly, it still doesn't make any goddam sense.

[Pacifist Patriot]

14. The single day total reported on the 24th (yesterday) was higher than the one today in FL.

But not by much, and we're still very much fucked.

[Gothmog]

15. The Texas GOP state convention is scheduled in Houston in July

This could be a true super spreader event

16. It's starting relatively slowly but continued inaction will soon lead to an acceleration

Where I live it’s been taken fairly serious but even here there are plenty naysayers. I’ve been getting out a bit more lately finally went to a doctor and dentist appointment. Those facilities are pretty strict but stopping in the grocery store I can see things relaxing quickly. Traffic has picked back up to where it was before.

Most of the people I associate with are older like myself so are being careful. But the younger crowd seems to have decided it’s over, at least as far as they are concerned. I suppose many of those won’t get sick, or just minimally sick, but they’ll be spreading it. Americans have a very short attention span. We’ll just keep tooling along and in a couple weeks we’ll have 100k new infections per day. We might get a reaction then, but by then the cat will be out of the bag. It’s going to be real hard to get it under control, and impossible under the current administration. People have forgotten that the early efforts have been to flatten the curve and it was working. Soon we’ll have hot spots where medical care is overwhelmed. What will trump be saying then? Who will he be blaming? I’ll take a guess that the BLM protests will get a lot of blame. But I’ll be interesting to see how his little get togethers pan out.
