Stop playing silly, Silly !

shambolic behaviour from Trump and others
Paul1405,
By others I assume you're referring to those indisciplined mutts rioting & then blaming Trump for it ?
You really need to land back on Earth every now & then !

"There seems to be a genuine disappointment from the Trump supporters on the forum because we haven't hit American levels of death and infection with Covid". Paul.

Well that lefty bloke in Victoria has certainly been trying to correct that now, hasn't he? You have to ask, was the sending all the infected oldies to nursing homes with no facilities to handle them, a simple act of stupidity, or premeditated?

Hassy, the responsibility for nursing homes/aged care is in the hands of the Federal government. ScumO' has tried to abrogate that responsibility onto the States, whilst doing what he can to protect that fool of an Aged Don't Care Minister Old Richie Cockup! When Little Johnny Howard changed aged care so private operators could reap vast profits from it something had to give. You can't had operators driving around in Rolls Royce's and living in million dollar mansions and at the same time expect even the basics for the old folks! That is why it is a case of aged we don't care, poor treatment and facilities, inadequate and poorly trained and paid staff. All put in place so some can reap vast profits from the elderly. I hope for your sake you are NEVER put into such a "facility" for the last years of your life.

I'm not saying that every "facility" is at that level, but the bottom end of the market sure is!

Paul1405,
I'd have thought common decency by everyone would be responsible. John Howard realised that the Labor supporting Public Service could not be relied on so, he put the service into the hands of private operators.
I can easily imagine that reasoning when one looks & observes the doings of Public service unions which only concern themselves with their members' whims !
Now, again the leftists are dictating & interfering/meddling in matters private enterprise via 'free speech' & 'one size fits all' & political correctness etc & yes, the blame gets awarded to Govt.
Ask yourself, who is working in Govt ? Your mates, the Public funded Superannuation chasing bureaucrats !

For a relative example Breast cancer in America.

In 2019, 268,600 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and 41,760 will die.

Covid-19 death claimed 181,791 in America since November. According to Johns Hopkins University, there are 3.30 million confirmed COVID-19 cases in the U.S. as of Monday, July 13. The country’s census bureau reports the current population is 329.9 million.
