It has come to start shifting the blame to those who are unaffected by the virus. I believe that those tested negative and those asymptomatic will be treated the same as if they were “guilty” of “White Privilege.”
“How dare you feel good when there are downtrodden in our country that will die because of you!”
They are indeed a mentally sick bunch.
It is too early for this crap. I need coffee.

but but “Da Science!!!!”

There’s a lot of handwringing about people doing crazy stuff like visiting family for Thanksgiving.
It occurred to me why this is happening. The reduced death rate is a factor, probably. But I think the real reason is that we’ve been indoctrinated with “do X Y and Z to be safe” and from that conclude “if you do X Y and Z you are safe”. So people are probably thinking “hey, I’m doing X Y and Z on the way to visit Uncle Joe, why are you bitching at me?”
Meanwhile, a massive study (over nine million people tested) demonstrated there is no evidence the asymptomatic can infect others.

“Results of virus culturing and contract tracing found no evidence that repositive cases in recovered COVID-19 patients were infectious, which is consistent with evidence from other sources. “
But, why would the politicians who “follow the science” want to actually…. oh, I do not know…. follow the science?
