It’s almost as if lockdowns do nothing to stop the spread of the coronavirus.
California has some of the nation’s strictest restrictions when it comes to COVID-19, yet it is one of America’s epicenters for the virus, Politico reported. The state has at times instituted “a complete ban on restaurant dining to travel quarantines and indoor gym closures.”
Politico reported this “hasn’t been enough,” even though these measures have decimated California’s economy while clearly doing little to stem the virus.
“America’s most populous state has become one of the nation’s worst epicenters for the disease, setting new records for cases, hospitalizations and deaths almost every day. Things are so bad in Southern California that some patients are being treated in hospital tents, while doctors have begun discussing whether they need to ration care,” the outlet reported.
To date, California has had 2.06 million known confirmed cases of coronavirus and 23,964 deaths in a population of 39.51 million. To put that in perspective, New York has had 909,000 confirmed cases and 36,739 deaths (24,889 deaths in New York City alone) in a population of 19.45 million. Florida, which has been under attack from the media for its handling of the pandemic because the state has a Republican governor who hasn’t taken unconstitutional and extreme measures to lock down the state, has seen 1.25 million confirmed cases and 20,994 deaths in a population of 21.48 million.

It would be worse without a lockdown.
It may be the more infectious strain
Or maybe people are too stupid to listen to instruction
Take your pick
California, the most liberal state, has the most strictest restrictions. Any surprise? After all, lockdowns = arresting the criminals. Boy do they have Deep State criminals in CA.
How odd…The math in the last paragraph proves CA is doing so much better than both NY and FL if you adjust for population… What is the point of this article again?!
