WASHINGTON, D.C., USA The director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has warned that the United States could be in for the "worst fall from a public health perspective" we've ever seen if Americans don't follow COVID-19 safety measures.
Dr. Robert Redfield told WebMD that all Americans need to do four simple things to help the fight against coronavirus: wear a mask, practice social distancing, wash your hands and be smart about crowds.
More at link. Does "be smart about crowds" mean open the schools?

I never watch football. To me, personally (not judging others), football personifies what is wrong in the world. And too many brain injuries.
Absolutely! If repukes had not stolen election & coconspirators had not refused to do their jobs, Hillary would have stopped covid BEFORE it becane an issue in our country.
But her emails...

They would be calling for her impeachment and talking about indicting her for her actions.
Repukes are ridiculous!

(202 posts)I believe that would have torn her apart. Meanwhile, the Rethugs would be ripping her to shreds for it and screaming for her impeachment, while STILL complaining about masks and social distancing,

My god the list of benefits this woman had in mind for America were far & future thinking.
The fools that repeated Putin's propaganda to discredit her, are a disgrace.
Shame on them all as we face the abyss of Trump's catastrophic decisions that reach every corner of American society as well as our foreign allies..
Their selfish short sidedness is astonishing.
They should hang their heads in shame forever.

She tried to warn what was coming, with Trump.
