A rural church wedding and reception on a beautiful day in the shadow of Mount Katahdin was no doubt a happy day. But it has spread misery ever since.
That single event on Aug. 7 is linked to outbreaks in at least two other locations in Maine, with more than 170 people contracting the virus and seven deaths since.
Dr. Nirav Shah, director of the Maine Center for Disease Control, said the single event has the power to undo much of the state’s progress during the pandemic. The virus can become “the uninvited guest at every single wedding, party or event in Maine,” he warned.
Pence had a female assistant.>> President Trump’s response to the pandemic showed a “flat out disregard for human life” because his “main concern was the economy and his reelection."
I'm waiting for the part that will shock me.
Yup. He's also been promising that a "great new health care system is just a couple of weeks away" for about the last 3.5 years or so.Promises of 100 million doses by the end of October, which of course is right before the election and 300 million by January!
Not gonna happen. It's absolute rubbish.
Maybe a placebo in time for November 3.
"end of October" is about 5 weeks away. Unless they have a magic vaccine in the wings, THIS IS BULLSHIT.

“What on earth happened to the freedom-loving, twinkly-eyed, Rabelaisian character I voted for? Oliver Hardy has left the stage, replaced by Oliver Cromwell,” said columnist Toby Young, complaining of a “lack of engagement with the detail”.
Also, all the big drug companies made a joint statement that they will not rush a vaccine until it is fully tested. This is simple business logic. If their vaccine kills a bunch of people, they may lose the trust of everyone, for all drugs. So if these companies are not going to rush into production and distribution, where would it come from for Trump? Nobody else has the capacity or the knowledge to mass-produce it.Yup.
