Though I certainly believe it started with the orange blowhard and his ridiculous claims regarding "it will just go away" and advising drinking bleach! He really is responsible since we know that he was completely aware of what was going on, thanks to Bob Woodard's tape!

And now that this situation has become so dire, there is no excuse for those who continue to ignore the actual truth. These willful idiots rush to hospitals - when they chose to ignore medical advice to begin with by not getting vaccinated when it was advised by doctors and medical experts! What does it take?!

Not to mention that the orange blowhard lied to the American people and the sick and dying who chose to believe his lies - though he knew the truth before anyone - are paying the price. As for the cowardly Republicans in Congress, someone should remind them of this!
