Tom Wolf on Friday rejected a subpoena by Republican lawmakers for records related to the administration’s coronavirus waiver process, potentially sparking a constitutional showdown in the courts, but did release a list of thousands of businesses that received approvals to reopen amid the shutdown.<br />“This information should be sufficient to address your committee’s concerns,” Wolf wrote in a letter to Sen. Mike Regan (R., York), who signed the subpoena.<br /><br />I wonder where Gov. Wolf learned such behavior?

It shows a maturity level of an adolescent. I saw a poll that 60% of Democrats blame Trump more than China for the virus. Not a big fan of Trump, but quite frankly that tells me just how unhinged my former party is. China is at fault here, they lied, and for 6 days allowed international travel from Wuhan Province while shutting down domestic travel. <br />May 8, 2020 at 4:33 PM<br /><br />I have not decided what to think of China. If the Trump Virus originated there as has been said , I still don't know the precise circumstances of that. I also don't know what to believe about the extent to which China hid the truth./ On that one, time will tell. I certainly don't give credence to the Right Wing Noise machine on this issue, and in the short term I don't think it's important to resolve this.<br /><br />But whatever proves to be the case, Trump was warned about the virus and did very little. Even now, that's true. He's dead to me. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-91365180696743694802020-05-08T17:27:37.988-04:002020-05-08T17:27:37.988-04:004.44

Kids starving who cares 4:24 got his. Such a nice person. How is me going back to work putting little ole you at risk?? I understand that people have medical problems, that 35% of our society is obese,(which I suspect many arguing to stay closed are) they can stay home. Boomers are the most selfish generation in the history of this country, not all but many. SMH. Too bad. Wow, it's mind boggling. You want to argue science? The science says if you're healthy you have about as much chance of dying from this virus as getting hit by a car. Two thirds of the deaths in this state are people in nursing homes. Average age of deceased is 79. Almost all deaths involve at least one cormorbidity. There's your science, straight from the transgender pediatrician masquerading as an infectious disease expert. <br /><br />@4:28 what do you tell the families of the possible up to 150k, according to USA Today, dying from addiction, suicide, and other deaths of despair due to the economy being closed? Life has risks, nothing is risk free. As someone who is healthy and in good physical shape I will take my chances on the .0003% death rate for someone like me. I will social distance, wear my mask. Nobody is saying bars and restaurants, concerts and sporting events. A common sense approach with precaution is in order here. Shit, I got a better chance of getting hit by lighting than dying from this flu.

Treatments have improved since the start of the pandemic which increases survival rates going forward. Hospitals are using less than 7% of their capacity. The hospitals potential for being overwhelmed was the main indicator for the high death rate forecasted by the Imperial model and why the shutdown was initially enacted. Elderly with mulitple comorbidities have perished and while sad, that also will lower the go-forward death rate.<br />So on May 8 if you are not in a nursing home, you have statistically zero chance of dying while shopping at a non essential store that sells similar wares to what one would find at BJ's, COSTCO, Home Depot, Lowes, Target, Wal-mart but are locally owned.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
