OH but the media say there is a rise in covid cases!!! Geee I wonder who is lying!!!
I just which you all would STFU or die already over this crap, so we can more to get it the way it was before socialism!!!! And once more, what is funny is how you all are demanding we wear masks everywhere, yet the rate is dropping... I bet you retards thing it is the masks that are lowering the rate right? Even though the side of the box of the very own mask you wear says in bold letter on top, this will not protect you from a virus!!!
Let’s get this straight:
4 out of 100 Marylanders test positive
Unknown number actually have a symptom
548 people are in hospital with the virus
(Keep in mind hospitals are incentivized to call it COVID)
How many people live in Maryland?
Question: are auto accidents more dangerous than COVID?
Crazy!

True reason:
Testing suspended due to results not meeting the narrative.
So weird because outside mask law was not in effect until the 31. Almost like the mask don’t do anything Nooooo
4% of the public is positive?
548 people in the hospital?
And the entire economy was closed in Maryland for that?
Come on . . . . .
I've been tested three times. I know people that are tested weekly because of their jobs. Are we being counted as one person tested or multiple people? Don't believe 15.9% of MD population has been tested.
Now, now. Hogan won't like that. He like other Democrats don't believe in science.
You need a quality mask. And a better education.
Eci has 3 positive staff that have COVID 19 now. It’s going to spread like wild fire at the institution. Warden what are u going to do when the administration replaces you?? Eci is gonna be a COVID hotspot.
So if science isn't good enuf....when will God end this?
Oh no he didn't!!!!
No I really didn't, but there are those who are waiting and that's hard to grasp more than science.
(snicker snicker)
