In AZ. we're racking up about 2,500 to 3,000 new cases every day now. Boy are we sure winning. All those people who just had to get out and party over the memorial day weekend are now reaping their rewards.

My ( red) state opened way too soon. 3 weeks ago there had been 3700 cases total. Now it's 16. 600+ cases with 5221 currently active. And none of these rednecks are social distancing. You know it's bad when Kansas issues a quarantine order against anyone travelling in from Arkansas.

This shows up the basics of the republican Health Plan. Die away from where you can be found and counted by another. Thus all will be good and everyone will be healthy.

How much can be traced to street demonstrations by tightly packed crowds, many of them not even wearing masks?

Coronavirus cases spiked in the U.S. sun belt with Republican governors who re-opened too soon.
Packed beaches and conservative idiots who refuse to wear masks.
@LiterateHiker So the street demos and Tulsa rally surges are yet to come? That's bad.
