Estimates say Over 2 million Americans have recovered from the Chinese virus. :clap:
Antibody Tests Point To Lower Death Rate For The Coronavirus Than First Thought
Where did you get the figure that 2 million Americans have recovered from this virus? Where did it refer to "the Chinese virus"? That wasn't in this article. The article was fairly good news. It does say that there are more people infected in the population than what earlier testing is telling us. That wasn't really good news. They are still infectious. The article also had this quote:"But even a virus with a fatality rate less than 1% presents a formidable threat, Rivers says. "That is many times more deadly than seasonal influenza," she says." That seems to contradict right wing talking points. Oh my, who to believe?

Dr. Marcus Zervos, who heads infectious disease work for the health system, said, "The findings have been highly analyzed and peer-reviewed."

New study documents that hydroxychloroquine does work - WND
The Henry Ford team wrote that 82% of their patients received hydroxychloroquine within the first 24 hours of admission, and 91% within the first 48 hours of admission.

They wrote that in comparison, a study of patients at 25 New York hospitals started taking the drug "at any time during their hospitalization."

But patients in that New York study, published in May in the Journal of the American Medical Association, started taking hydroxychloroquine on average one day after being hospitalized.

"Maybe there's a little bit of a difference, but it's not like patients in New York were being started on day seven. That's not what happened," said Eli Rosenberg, lead author of the New York study and an associate professor of epidemiology at the University at Albany School of Public Health.

Rosenberg also pointed out that the Detroit paper excluded 267 patients -- nearly 10% of the study population -- who had not yet been discharged from the hospital.

He said this might have skewed the results to make hydroxychloroquine look better than it really was. Those patients might have still been in the hospital because they were very sick, and if they died, excluding them from the study made hydroxychloroquine look like more of a lifesaver than it really was.

DC police union buried in mockery after accidentally revealing their own incompetence in stopping crime

On Friday, the Twitter account for the Washington, D.C. police union posted statistics on a recent upswing in crime rates in the area — trying to imply that police accountability reforms in the wake of the George Floyd killing are preventing officers from doing their jobs.

There was just one problem: D.C. hasn’t actually implemented any policing changes yet — so, as many commenters on social media swiftly pointed out, all these numbers meant were that police officers in D.C. were doing a poor job.

Neighbors From Hell? The Insane Drama Behind the Gun-Toting St. Louis Lawyer Couple

Before they were photographed brandishing guns during a Black Lives Matter protest, Mark and Patricia McCloskey had made a name for themselves in their St. Louis neighborhood, suing and writing angry letters to community groups, and even accusing a neighborhood association of trespassing for taking a picture of their house.

Appeasing lawless thugs will not end well. It is funny tho.:bang:

Deroy Murdock: As crime soars, Democrats pick $1 billion from NYPD's pockets

In normal times, this would be a risky move, at best. Amid Gotham’s soaring crime rate, this is akin to firing lifeguards while a beach gets lashed by riptides.
Republicans are hypocrites. They happily 'de-funded' the police we actually need | David Sirota

Republican leaders would have us believe they love law enforcement and cops, but that is belied by an unmentioned fact: These are the same greedheads who have eagerly pushed to defund the police charged with protecting us from the world’s most dangerous and powerful criminals.

Trump supporters shouted ‘go home’ at Native Americans protesting Mount Rushmore rally on their land: report

“
It is their land according to the U.S. government, according to the United States Supreme Court, which ruled in 1980 that the original Laramie Treaty of 1868 was not held up by the U.S. government, the U.S. government did not hold up their end of the bargain,” Perry reported. “That treaty ended a lot of the conflict in the northwestern part of this country, it wasn’t even fully formed at that point, but these Black Hills were given to the Lakota people, and it was less than ten years later when people searching for gold came across these hills and the Lakota people were starved and killed and run out of these hills, and ever since then they’ve been on reservations and they’ve been fighting for their land back.”
