They don't care. This isn't about a virus, it is about communist control. The liberals found they can invent a boogieman and the feeble minded of all political persuasions will fall in line.
Our government agencies, experts, and Congress have been a large part of the problem by giving bad advice, dragging their feet, creating distractions, and so forth. President Trump, even after having been misled, fought at every step, lambasted, and correcting fake news from our MSM, has served America in exemplary manner. Americans are very fortunate to have DJT as our president during these times. But it's not the flu...it's much worse. If fewer Americans die from this than the seasonal flu, it will be due to heroic efforts and and by the grace of God.
