Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp announced Saturday that the state had the lowest number of hospitalized coronavirus patients it has seen in just over a month.

"Today marks the lowest number of COVID-19 positive patients currently hospitalized statewide (1,203) since hospitals began reporting this data on April 8th," Kemp tweeted.

"Today also marks the lowest total of ventilators in use (897 with 1,945 available). We will win this fight together!" he added.

This can’t be true. The liberal media told us a few weeks ago that tens of thousands of Georgians would be dying in the streets by about now.

No problem. The media will just come out with fake news lying about it. Problem solved.

If GA doesn't see a meaningful uptick in cases by the 31st, we're probably safe to rebound, given the incubation period.

If you tried to goto a grocery store yesterday in GA, it was probably packed with people. When I saw the parking lot I thought it was Thanksgiving all over again.

Oh, noes, aren't they getting hair cuts and nails fixed in GA?

Did they count they all deaths for chi-com virus or did they blame some on other causes?

Where is loud mouth hannity and while I hate to say it, President Trump abandoned the GA gubbernor and said, "I'm not happy with him".

I love Trump, but he sold out on this one.

Haircut in Arkansas last Thursday. Stores packed yesterday except for Best Buy. They said corporate rules are not to allow people in. Just drive up by appt. Better change that dumb approach soon or they will lose business. I went to WalMart and got what I wanted. We are seeing almost zero cases around here

I would unplug my vent and crawl to the polls to vote for him again, Still, hard to deny he got rolled on this one. Looking forward to all the “experts” admitting “we were wrong”. Maybe as all fall to their knees at the second coming. Maybe

Trump was infected by the virus and it turned him into a politician. The only cure for Trump is getting re-elected.

Gov Kemp made Trump a centrist. I don’t know if it was planned that way. But that this exactly the strategy and tactics that the left uses. By some staking out an extreme position they make the Joe Bidens out to be centrists.
