MarySchmermund It’s Hell out here. I’m touched by the love so many people of every shade of skin color and race have shown for our late brother, George Floyd’s murderous end, and people are going to pay for it! But, we still have the Coronavirus Pandemic mountain to climb. God Bless You George!

Oh we're back on this is the media growing tired of riots?

1 in 3 deaths is American, we are 1/25 of the world's population. There are some very real reasons why so much of this pandemic is paved in American blood. Cutting medicaid funding before this pandemic hit and record unemployment. How about focusing on those?

The number isn't even close to 'immense'

Now do cancer, or heart disease

Dont go to the beach you terrorists. Loot and steal and riot in the name of racial equality, but wear mask to protect others.

I think I had an aneurysm trying to scroll through that.

Y’all still talking about this!! Drop the bull shit, it’s you guys destroying this country

Wait three four weeks the numbers with be treble possibly more especially after the riots and protests

Message from the one who predicted coronavirus. Dr. Anthony R. Fehr, Assistant Professor of Infectious Disease at the University of Kansas. He was one of about a hundred people in the country studying the coronavirus full-time.

Immense? The number who died is statistically insignificant. Immense, LoL Wha a joke. Show it next to the number of US who died over the same period these Covid deaths occurred.

Did NBC ever try to 'visualize' the 80,000 people killed by last winter's flu or write bleeding heart pious articles about them? Apparently only people's deaths that can be used for partisan political purpose have any value at NBC.

I'm old enough to remember when social distancing was a thing.

Apparently--the riots cured it.
