    I chose NO OPINION because none of the options fit my humble opinion.

    I also did not render an opinion because there are 50 states and the states are running the show.

    Poorly is an understatement. Every other first world country (well - maybe second now) aced it.

    Trump FAILED.

    Hence, we are no longer welcome in the EU. Sad

    No government can stop a virus. We have to learn to live with it.
    When Donald Trump said to protest “peacefully”, he meant violence.

    When he told protesters to “go home”, he meant stay for an insurrection.

    And when he told Brad Raffensperger to implement “whatever the correct legal remedy is”, he meant fraud.

    War is peace.

    Freedom is slavery.

    Ignorance is strength.

    It will be Amazing to see the miracle that will happen on November 3 if Joe Biden wins. The Corona Virus will become the common cold in this country and we will return to normal is my prediction

    As for me I put poorly because

    1) We have damaged our economy in irrepairable ways, ignored the Constitution, effectively had state kings ( about as unamerican as it gets) for months.
    2) Still didn't do much better than at least one country that did not over react, Sweden.
    3) NYC despite being quite restricted became the world epicenter due to unchecked world air travel, a near total reliance on public transport and an unwillingness on King Andy's part to focus on slowing the virus getting out of NYC. Clearly restrictions didn't do the job in a modern mega city. If this had been the real killer virus the northeast would have been devastated due to NYC.
    You make some valid points. Except that the numbers are not rising just because of more tests, because the number of hospitalizations is also rising, and the percentage of positive tests is going up, too.

    Carolina73 is right otherwise Mayor DeBlasio and other mayors would not be allowing these violent gatherings. It's the parades, fairs, Mom&Pop restaurants, churches that are the real problem. Covid is as deadly as it is intelligent.

    I agree with that. We could be "living with it" better, though.
