I believe he didn't know, because Faux News hadn't mentioned it.

(14,974 posts)Let me add this, though: If one were to accept this "excuse" at face value, it is an admission of such gross negligence and incompetence that resignation is mandatory under these circumstances.

You ignored science. You are an idiot, and a failure.

(49,445 posts)It's your fucking job to know this stuff as soon as it is known, not when you finally yank your head out of Trump's ass.
God, it's like the Imperial Japanese Fleet sailing down the shipping lanes from Japan to Hawaii in late November/early December 1941, transmitting their intention to attack Pearl Harbor Naval Base by air on December 7th on a continuous loop, filing a flight plan for all the fighters and bombers with the Civil Aviation Board (now the FAA), registering the plane's machine guns and explosives with the Treasury Department, and getting temporary immigrant work vistas for the aircrews.
And Admiral Kemp, in charge of the Pacific Fleet, says "we had no idea" after the fleet is wiped out.
Well, if Kemp is lucky, the body count in Georgia will be less than Pearl Harbor.

(2,336 posts)Who is voting to reelect these idiots who can't even be bothered to watch coverage of the pandemic? We've known for a very long time that you can pass the virus before you realize you have it. How can the world be reminded of their ignorance when time comes for them to run again?

(43,419 posts)or is so rare that it doesn't matter. That fucker Anders Tegnell said it again yesterday as justification for why they are STILL refusing to shut schools under high school level down.
Now, per a very good friend of mine (he is a teacher at an elite gymnasiet ie. high school) there is this new disastrous news; one of his student' parents who is very high up in the national health care system said that by this Monday Stockholm will be utterly out of ventilators and will start to triage people off them and will deny older patients in favour of younger ones.
This is after we sent a bunch off to Asia and elsewhere in February!
Do NOT think that RW MAGAt scum like Kemp are the only idiots in terms of COVID response.
