Wouldn’t it be nice if they broke out the Pitchess convict number out of the general population???!!!
Also, wouldn’t be nice to publish the ICU copunts and the number of people cured after being confirmed?
Seems like fearmongering to me.
Masks half off. No mask at all. Loose fitting masks. I can’t believe people think they’re “protected”. Its a false sense of security. If you are truly high risk you should take precautions. The rest of the world isn’t and shouldn’t live in fear. Newsom is power mad! He needs to be recalled for his abuse of power. One size doesn’t fit all. Every community is different and should be allowed to operate accordingly.
One would wonder why a jail in CASTAIC is included in “Santa Clarita” numbers anyways.
This online paper needs to hire more intelligent decision makers.
You gotta watch out for those 86% asymptomatic and 95% mild symptoms, their dangerous!! Ha ha ha ha ha.
What a joke! You’re seriously gonna tell me, we have a virus putting out asymptomatic cases and mild symptom cases LEFT AND RIGHT….and we shut the world down for that??
Who’s in charge these days, jeez….one would look at the numbers and say, what’s really going on here??! This stuff only happens in election years….oh wait…
And the worst part is, the sheep fall for it. Did you watch news Carol, “Oh my god”, they said this and you can’t do that, and you must do this! Were all gonna die Carol!!! Don’t wear a mask, it does nothing….3 weeks later, wear a mask “we think” it helps. Ridiculous.
