If they were able to take the bus over to their car and go home, their immune system could have prevented the infection, but the exposure caused them to get infected

Cull the herd. Even if it's your own. It's their fault if they die, not dear leader's.

republicans just don't care, even about other republicans unless they got big money to donate to the campaign coffers.

not feeling bad for the old people wondering around looking for their cars, and my heart DEFINITELY goes out to the first responders in the 'shit show.'

Is that they used the parking lot around the baseball stadium then bussed them the 4 miles to the airport. Those logistics should have worked great by reversing the process, including police to direct traffic including running the stoplights. Not sure how something this simple could be screwed up so royally.
