COVID-19 Outbreak (Update: More than 2.9M cases and 132,313 deaths in US)

Not sure where the disconnect between the Keen County site and the Bakersfield paper is. However, as far as central California is going, nowhere in the valley is seeing a decline of any sort at this point, if anything we are all having a post easter bump.

Now, like in anything thinking of these 2 doctors. They run private clinics. Ok. Now, clinics and hospitals are getting hammered in California because if you’re just feeling bad, no way are you going to a hospital at this point. Every hospital
Is hurting economically, most of the major ones have laid off hundreds of employees because of this. So, of corse they are all for opening as they haven’t seen huge numbers being rural and very spread out, and they are also hurting economically because of this. Also, as I said, politically Bakersfield is much more representative of Oklahoma, which is who settled Bakersfield. Oakies from the Great Depression moving into the area.

I also think some of it is tunnel vision. People are just looking around and thinking everything is fine and not seeing the bigger/broader picture. I think there is some of that.

I also think the anti-vaxxers are still out there. Sure there are fewer of them these days, but, they're still making some noise and justifying their irresponsible actions by their ongoing use of bad science.
