"WELLINGTON, New Zealand — New Zealand appears to have completely eradicated the coronavirus — at least for now — after health officials said Monday the last known infected person had recovered.
The announcement was greeted with joy around the country and means the nation of 5 million people will be among the first to welcome throngs of fans back into sports stadiums, embrace crowded concerts and remove seating restrictions from flights.
It has been 17 days since the last new case was reported, during which time an additional 40,000 people have been tested, bringing the total number tested to about 300,000. Monday marked the first time since late February there have been no active cases." LATimes

Great job Kiwis! If only duh-merica had a great leader like PM Jacinda Ardern.

Just wait for Bunker-Boy to say those who didn't get sick should thank him for it.

I'm watching a Harvard doctor on Chris Cuomo's show and he dropped a bombshell, 200,000 dead American citizens by September!

I hope my number isn't in there. You see, if I catch this shit, I'm fucking dead. I have COPD amongst my other ailments and I use two different inhalers every goddamned day and they aren't cheap.

T'rump and his rabid followers can go fuck themselves.

Pardon my francais, Sister.

Big new case numbers out. 2nd wave cranking up. There's still most of the populace susceptible, more cases and fewer precautions. It's going to get worse and worse and worse.

A sentiment I've been seeing on the internet where the wild conservatives roam is to blame the increased cases of Covid-19 on the George Floyd protesters. You know, those people. Despite the fact that the protests are occurring in every state of the union and new Covid-19 cases aren't tracking that. I've also noticed from the coverage I've seen a lot more of the George Floyd protesters masked-up versus the open up the states protesters. I also noticed this of the George Floyd protests in person.
