from a report of some of the troops that got deployed to the protests in DCquote:A day later, the Immediate Response Battalion finally re-deployed back to Fort Bragg. However, social distancing was virtually impossible during the deployment. Once returned back to Bragg, enough soldiers tested positive for COVID-19, showed symptoms consistent with the virus, or were exposed to those who did have the virus, that two companies of IRB 1 had to be quarantined, according to the source Connecting Vets spoke with. Connecting Vets reached out to Fort Bragg's public affairs office, who directed us to the 82nd Airborne's public affairs officer, who directed us to the brigade public affairs officer, who did not reply to phone calls or voice messages. Connecting Vets also reached out directly to the Pentagon. A spokesperson declined to comment citing operational security concerns.

Bernie Panders posted:there’s nothing wrong with being outside if you’re distancing. very little data supports outside infections as being common Yeah me know that now and you don't see anybody with posts making fun of people going to a non crowded park or anything like that. Just the 'I went to the gym and there were a bunch of idiots there' type posts.

A lot of Canadians are in a full on panic because Americans travellers at the border are claiming they're travelling up to Alaska (which they're allowed to do) and then taking a "detour" to stop and camp at some tourist spots in the Rockies.

Brazil is racking up a LOT of reported cum deaths and rapidly shooting up the leaderboard. They overtook Italy for 3rd place ten days ago and they just overtook the UK and claimed second place, and their curve is looking pretty ugly: It'll take them a hell of a long time to catch up the the US though, you guys have established a shockingly steep lead:
