what would a good leader have done?
which mayor, governor, or national leader was good and saved their people?
the Governor of Utah because their fatality rate is 0.87%???
For Arizona, and you may not know this, because everyone's dealing with their own shit, local leaders (mayors) were FORBIDDEN from instituting required mask-wearing ordinances. It wasn't just a case of the state doing nothing, leaving it to each city and town - our governor actively prevented them from taking action,no matter how bad their area was.
The governor has suddenly reversed basically everything he's previously said, suddenly appearing on camera wearing a mask, etc - basically waiting until the ship is sinking to acknowledge his ankles are getting wet.
Add that to back in early May, where the state tasked a team from ASU with gathering COVID data, was provided the data, didn't like what they saw, then produced their own, invented data, which was obviously different and wrong. All of this was immediately known (not even good at cover-ups).
Our governor is trying to be Trump Jr and the results are precisely obvious.
Instead of doing what many of you have suggested a wise tactic nationally - treating each region in accordance to it's number of cases, AZ has been acting as one big, uniform place. Yuma is at max capacity and sending people to Phoenix. As per the graph I shared yesterday, it's getting bad.
And Mr. Brilliant himself, Trump, holds a rally at a church in Phoenix, full of people, no masks, all sitting together, laughing at his "kung flu" line like it's music to their ears.
Bars have been open under the guise of restaurants because they serve food. No specifics to stop them, no enforcement if they're breaking rules, just more spread.
