Dr. Megan Ranney told CNN that a person who has COVID-19 is at the highest risk of infecting others during the two days before symptoms begin to appear. She said Giuliani "could have potentially exposed hundreds and hundreds of Trump supporters" to the virus during his December 3 visit to Atlanta. In a tweet today, delusional Donald said Giuliani "has been working tirelessly exposing the most corrupt election (by far!) in the history of the USA." Giuliani has exposed nothing. There was no corruption. You lost, Donald! Get over it!!!

CNN, Dec 6 2020 5:40 PM ET
Rudy Giuliani, the personal attorney to President Donald Trump, has tested positive for Covid-19, Trump announced. "Get better soon Rudy, we will carry on!!!" Trump wrote today on Twitter.. Giuliani has not announced his diagnosis. CNN has reached out to him for comment.
The former Mayor of New York has been crisscrossing the country to battleground states, leading the President's long-shot legal battle to overturn the results of the 2020 Presidential election. Giuliani has repeatedly disregarded public health guidelines, appearing maskless in state capitols, hotel ballrooms and at indoor news conferences in recent weeks. At many of the events, most of the other people in the indoor settings were also not wearing masks. At some of those events, Giuliani was spotted shaking hands, hugging and taking pictures with people while not wearing a mask.

GOP Congressman-elect praises maskless Trump supporters: 'This is a phony pandemic'
HuffPost, Dec 12 2020 11:12 PM
Looking out at the largely maskless throng of attendees at a pro-Trump rally in Washington DC on Saturday, Republican Congressman-elect Bob Good dismissed the coronavirus pandemic as "phony." Good, who was wearing a Trump 2020 hat but no mask, lauded the crowd. "I can’t tell you how great it is to look out there and see your faces," said Good, who won Virginia's 5th Congressional District seat last month. "This looks like a group of people that gets it. This is a phony pandemic. It’s a serious virus, but it’s a virus, it’s not a pandemic." Good's remarks come as the United States reports a record-breaking number of COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations and deaths.

Reuters, Jan 22 2121 9:34 AM
Canada’s Justin Trudeau and US President Joe Biden agreed to meet next month, the Prime Minister’s office said on Friday, following a call between the two leaders in which they vowed to join forces to combat coronavirus in North America. Trudeau, who has been keen to embrace the new President and move on from the often tumultuous Donald Trump years, was the first foreign leader to speak with Biden since Wednesday’s inauguration. The two “recognized that both countries’ fundamental priority is to end the global COVID-19 pandemic,” Trudeau’s office said in a statement. They also discussed collaboration on vaccines. It is not clear whether the meeting will be face to face or virtual.

It's been one year since Trump boasted 15 COVID-19 cases would soon be 'close to zero’
"That's a pretty good job we're doing," he gloated. One year later, the US coronavirus death toll has passed 510,000.

More than 543,000 Americans have died of COVID-19. More than ten million Americans are unemployed. Today, President Biden signed into law a $1.9 trillion COVID relief bill which includes $1,400 stimulus checks, extends weekly unemployment benefits and increases the child tax credit. The bill was passed by the House, 220 to 211. Every Republican – every one! – voted against it. As we learned from Donald Trump's 2017 tax overhaul, Republicans do not care about the poor and the middle class. They care about banks, big corporations and the wealtheiest Americans. Not even a pandemic changes that.

In January, Donald Trump privately got a COVID-19 vaccination in the White House. He tried to keep it secret because many millions of his blindly loyal supporters are anti-vaxxers. A perplexed Dr. Anthony Fauci noted that vaccines "have rescued us from smallpox, from polio, from measles. What is the problem here?" The COVID-19 death toll in the United States is now more than 547,000. I wonder how many of those were Retrumplicans.

I am very interested in what people who refuse to be vaccinated think?

I think the main reason people do not want to be vaccinated is because they are afraid of side effects, but any side effects would be very mild and certainly would not be as bad as the virus. What I do not understand is why Republicans are more opposed to the vaccine than Democrats are.
