Weird that CA has millions of homeless people but they aren't dying from covid

[jackie.esqueda]

The government is the main reason, why all these innocent people have been dying.

It’s so serious that all the Airlines are still open, airports are busy, and on the flights passengers are sitting 12” apart breathing the same air. What a ruse.

oh yall forgot about the "protestings" ? the people w no masks? and the gatherings / parties w no masks? oh makes sense

[jaynelson]

"Cases" don't mean squat. Hype and scare are not science. All that matters is Covid19-only hospitalizations, and survival rate. Turn off CBS, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, FOX.

Meanwhile, Lord Newsom is enjoying Christmas with his friends & family like nothing has changed. Way to trade freedom for the illusion of security, people.

But they're one of the strictest states when it comes to covid. How is this possible. It's almost as if it doesn't matter

[mykaylahawkins]

Not like California has 40 million people in it or anything like that.

One year from now: News: The US has now surpassed 500M covid cases.

Population: But there are only 300M of us....
