who else doesnt even bother to watch the media videos tho, just here to see the public opinion

[mananasr]

Why are we preparing for second wave even though we can’t get rid of the first one
🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨😷😷😷😷

[e.t.o.]

Pat attention folks. It really is okay to say "I don't know." We have to adapt to uncertainty and human existence is the ability to adapt and coexist with the unknowable. It's what makes us great. The scariest person you can meet is one who tells you they have all the answers.

[aditya]

Wait when did first wave end??? Was I under rock?

[kathybee]

What's so hard about washing your hands, not coughing, yelling or spitting in peoples' faces and not invading someones' personal space?
I was raised to have some courtesy for others, I guess my parents were just psychic, getting me ready for 2020. 🤷‍♀️

[RyanScottForReal]

We just don't know? Please. We are at the highest level of infections TODAY yet we are opening things back up. It never went away and yet we talk like it has!

[petes.]

They can't even develop enough accurate tests and I doubt they will by the fall.

[danielbartlett]

If you listen closely. That’s what false hope sounds like

[Filmedby_rose]

Why are we worrying about a second wave? When we can’t even handle the first one. Take care of the CURRENT problem.

[hudsonabrahams]

During the second wave I am going to work because starving kinda sucks too.

[bethalicia]

I think we’re already in the 2nd wave, China had cases since the beginning of 2019, remember a lot of people were sick around oct-dec in the US but couldn’t get a diagnosis. I think we’ve had the virus here for a while but they don’t want to take accountability 🤷🏽‍♀️

[immortalsoul]

If I die I die. But I refuse to go out in fear

[bigpaulie]

I'm hoping for a second stimulus check at least. One for each wave. I might as well enjoy the pandemic as best I can

[stevelikesgummybears]

Breaking News: common sense can protect you from covid 19. 🤦

[BLAMBERRY]

“I think we just don’t know”
First 15 seconds of the video...

[anubis]

Every time I click to see if there are good news on sight, it is always the same answer: we don't know, we are not sure, probably, perhaps, it depends....Nobody knows jack!!!

[sarahsorensen]

How come they are talking about a second wave when the first hasn’t even ended?

[youdeserveabundance]

When her stats came up on the screen to set conviction about the words she said, that was so funny. This type of media is increasingly obsolete, and the light of history will glare upon it.

[MichaelMadcock]

We can expect more media lies and manipulation. Also, more articles like "How to destroy your shirt to make an even more ineffective mask than the N 95".

[perropulgoso]

If there is a second wave, for sure we can expect the government to be as incompetent as on the first one.
