The Way Back Machine....
- Mayor Lori Lightfoot said Wednesday she’s “very disappointed” in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for fanning the flames of fear about the spread of the coronavirus in the United States.
Dr. Nancy Messonnier, director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, is warning Americans to start preparing now for “the expectation that this might be bad,” triggering a severe disruption in their daily lives.
[...]
Wednesday, Lightfoot essentially accused the federal officials of fear-mongering.
With Chinatown restaurants already suffering from a dramatic decline in business tied to coronavirus fears, the last thing Chicago needs is a premature alarm from federal officials, the mayor said.
“I will candidly tell you that I was very disappointed with the comments of the CDC yesterday and members of the Trump administration around coronavirus,” Lightfoot said.
“We feel very well prepared to address this issue. And I don’t want people to take from the comments … at the federal level that, somehow, they should be worried and that we’re not prepared in this city. We absolutely are prepared.”
Hmmmm. And there was plenty more:
- The mayor assured skittish Chicagoans that city, state and county public health agencies are “in constant contact” with the CDC and Homeland Security and have a “well-planned,” coordinated and frequently-tested response in the event the virus reappears.
All impacted agencies and local hospitals are “engaged in table-top exercises on a regular basis,” she said.
The "table-top exercises" consisted of Groot and Fatass sitting at a table passing a single sheet of paper back-and-forth that said "Orange Man Bad!" about fifty times - kind of like the typing that Jack Torrence did in The Shining.

Authentic liberal jibberish....
Ha. Priceless
When you don't know what the hell you are talking about. (Insert foot in mouth Lightfoot)
I just saw a video about the things these dem leaders said back then about CV and social distancing. They all seem to do the same things and with their head in the same hole. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WslBRY9B-n4
This is something everyone should take a hard look at. These are projections and you can drill down to each state. This is nothing to play with. I understand these are only projections but doesnt look good mid April. Buckle up.

Fuck you, Larry.
You’re a clueless, lying piece of shit who hasn’t clue the first just how in over your head you are. Same with that fat ass Gov JB.
These statements and articles need to be archived in the event they’re ever necessary for legal proceedings brought forth against the city and state by officers and/or their estates as a result of sickness or death because of the unpreparedness and lack of protective gear for first responders and front line workers.
This elected “leaders” of this city and state are utterly disgusting. Fuck them all.
And the CDC itself was a month later than it should have been.
We should have known exactly what was coming because this wasn't the first country to be hit by it. And now we're seeing what's happening in NYC and plenty of other areas are still pretending it's not real.
People go into Law because they can't get into Medicine.
Thank you Doctor Lori
OT
Radio news must be on LSD. For the few people who have
died in NYC from Covid-19 we hear that "funeral homes and
cemeteries might not be able to handle the load." Really?
It's NOT an exponential increase in deaths. The Media is
making a bundle off this shit and the ad dollars flow like water.
Shit don't just disappear down the memory hole like it used to.
Mayor Dipshit clearly is untrained in the art of staying on point and following a continual line messaging as evidenced by her statements. Unfortunately her incompetence, her incoherence, her inability to control events whether of her making or not makes her wholly qualified to be mayor of the City of Chicago.
Someone should ask her if they have a big supply of body bags. Saw where the Chinese Virus is hitting the homeless on the West Coast. Is she prepared for that. Speaking of which why hasn't the incompetent Commanders ordered the police lobbies emptied and shut down? Yea I said Chinese Virus, FUCK PC language.
LMFAO!
She must have forgotten all about that....
Frequently tested response????? Looking for the training video on that. Because it wasn’t covered under the procedural justice, implied bias or use of force inservice training this year.
'Jack Torrence did in The Shining'
Does Chicago have a REDRUM problem?
I have not looked at the West and South side data so I can only assume... No. Democrats in charge = no worries after all.
This is a well coordinated effort by the Democrat governors and mayors to smear Trump and blame their shortcomings on him. About a week ago Gov Cuomo NY was slamming Trump because they didn't have supplies (masks, gloves, ventilators etc). But it was Cuomo in 2015 was told the state needed to replenish the stockpile, especially more ventilators. But instead he spent the money (millions) on two green energy projects than failed. He just complained that Trump was holding up the delivery of 4000 ventilators when they found that they were sitting in a warehouse waiting to be picked up. Trump delivered a US military hospital ship to NY harbor to treat the sick and much more.
As to our own progressive/socialist mayor how dare she say what she did when she is sticking this illegal alien/sanctuary city nonsense up our asses as well as a host of other things. There is a concerted movement among the Democrat Party to do anything to smear Trump. It’s all about power and more control over our lives. The mayor and governor were not prepared but they are great at projecting. And the news media is part and parcel to this. So on Tuesday at Pritzker’s Coronavirus (lets pat each other on the back and thank each other for what a great job we are doing) briefing he applauded the news media “for your commitment to accuracy and truth in reporting. That’s when I had to turn it off before I barfed.
Lets see that plan on paper, the mayor has. She is for transparency right? Maybe they can print it in the news media to see if it’s doable.
“I will candidly tell you that I was very disappointed with the comments of the CDC yesterday and members of the Trump administration around coronavirus,” Lightfoot said.
Not because the information coming from the Federal level is based on science, but because Social Justice Warriors have a strong distain for facts, the truth, or reality.
Prepared, my ass. They’re never prepared for anything.
NOT A LEO
Question,
Has Chicago in its entire history ever had a "good" mayor?
At least I can think of one in more modern times who I did personally like, and did vote for. Harold Washington.
Ahhhh - Larry and Jaba are nailing the Illinois coffin shut. F*cking democrats
Groot go back protesting ICE... no one is even listening to the gas coming out of your throat
Groot any more medical advice or foreign policy adjectives that the USA should put at the forefront. What made this dude qualified to do shit?
As a whole, Chinatown eateries have filthy kitchens anyway. I wouldn't eat there for free.
LORI is still trying to be a kingmaker out in the real world.
She has not collation.
She has no affect on this State elections either thanks to MAdigan.
Keep on closing beaches and begging for ventilators like the good mayor that U BE.
How dare they not contact Lori before every speech. She's a big town mayor. She should have copies of every speech for her approval. Does she really think anyone believes that she and Jaba are prepared for anything. A city and a state with no money and no leadership. Sure thing Lori.
Lead foot knew the NBA allstar game was coming to town didn't want to loose 💲
Explain the Dart logic again in releasing prisoners? I seem to be missing something.
This shows that Pritzker and Lightfoot are in over their heads by being in leadership positions. Their leadership skills consist of blaming Trump about their inadequacies. Who would they blame if Trump wasn’t there? They’re lucky that we have a Republican President. If there was a Democratic President, they would have to take their lumps from the media. Elections have consequences. These two are a glaring example of that.
“We feel very well prepared to address this issue. And I don’t want people to take from the comments … at the federal level that, somehow, they should be worried and that we’re not prepared in this city. We absolutely are prepared.”
THANK YOU SCC for this reminder, now "Toady" is doing what most politicians do best blame someone else for their very own shortcomings, but alas she has a ghastly meme we can all enjoy in our time of need...
Two of the dumbest jagoffs on the planet say they got this!
The democrats are playing the publicity game and they are winning with certain segments of our society. The democrat game is to blame Trump for everything, for ignoring the early pleas, for not doing enough fast enough and for having " blood on his hands". They seem to ignore the early democratic warnings that this virus is nothing to worry about . The liberals also ignore the concept of Federalism; that is, the states and local governments are responsible for planning and taking care of their own , for equipping and planning medical services, not the federal government.
When you’re a failed lawyer, you go into politics. Doesn’t require any IQ higher than a hamster.

Oooooh looks fancy. Unfortunately, this is from The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME). Paid for by Bill Gates and the pharmaceutical companies. The CompStat of medicine. When any doctor tells you really bad news...get a second opinion there sport. Trust but verify. Covid-19 is a serious health crisis but not the "pandemic" the left was hoping for.
All impacted agencies and local hospitals are “engaged in table-top exercises on a regular basis,” she said.
lol that's the thing with office desk jockeys and book worms, they don't know that dude and the rest of social media society don't gives a fuck about how the scenerio plays out on paper or during talks cause they are human beings governed by their own wants needs and desires cause everyone gets a fuckin trophy
I hope they spring the plan in to action soon.
You know, it’s not practical to tell/train individual
officers.
Yea right the words sound good. To bad the actions will not match the words. Just like the Chicago First Responders have adequate PPE protection? Liar liar your oversized pants are on fire. We can only hope.
REDRUM. REDRUM. REDRUM.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
who in their right mind is going to take health advice from a 500lb governor?

Fellow officers......
This shit WILL go bad......check out THE GUARDIAN online for the U.S. state by state
totals....great graph that is readable. This shit is exploding.
Don’t touch your face!
Wear glasses, any kind.....wear masks, to cover your nose and mouth, any kind
Wear gloves, disposable if you can....carry a zip lock, use them, put in zip lock, then wash heavily
with soap and hot water....you can reuse them.....
And do the best you can to avoid EVERYONE......
May St Michael protect you all......
Even as our own mayor won’t!
I’m scared shitless!
We don’t need to be hearing from Pritzker and lightfoot, let the doctors on stage handle what the public should know, not those to incompetent ass holes

Rikers Island is offering inmates $6 an hour and face masks to dig mass graves as coronavirus deaths in New York City rise to 1,096
Rikers Island inmates were offered $6 an hour to work on Hart Island
The island is the home to a public cemetery owned by New York City
It was also the proposed location for a mass grave if a pandemic hit the city
A 2008 contingency plan said inmates would dig a mass grave on the island that could accommodate 51,000 corpses
The news comes as makeshift morgues are established on NYC streets
The coronavirus death toll rose to 1,096 on Tuesday
Rikers Island faces its own coronavirus outbreak as its chief physician issued a stark warning that vulnerable inmates should be released

When is Lori and fat ass going to stop the dope boys and the feral predators on Michigan Avenue and the gangs riding the el? Never, she can’t offend her base .
Walking down Michigan Ave. at rush hour last Friday, as you know about 8 or 9 CTA bus routes converge on that area, especially the turn around at Congress, saw at least 30 buses, 7 out of 10 were completely empty and none had more passengers that couldn't be counted on one hand.
Even the city admits that CTA ridership is down 75% but they're still running at full capacity?
Is the CTA a transportation agency or a jobs program?
Plan? She needs to go. She is clueless little troll. Chicago is not special nor immune from Covid-19. And let’s be honest if shit hits the fan like in Italy or New York with the respect to the victims and their families she will start blaming president and his administration for it.
Trump bad, he NOT listen to experts

https://covid19.healthdata.org/projections
I hope you all understand that in doing numerical projections they are inherently designed for a "worse case" scenario. Remember in WWII they projected 1 Million dead to invade Japan, justifying the atom bombs. During the Normandy invasion there were 209,000 total casualties with 51,000 Allied dead. What everyone needs to start paying attention is this: 80% of the people being tested do NOT have the virus; a large number of people are being released from hospitals, surviving the virus; and good portion of the population that has it are recovering at home. Just do this - assume you have it, follow CDC guidelines to protect yourself and others, and don't get overwhelmed. In the U.S. we've survived AIDS, SARS, Mers, H1N1 bird flu and the yearly flu. We will get through this.
This is coming from one of the IDIOTS who encouraged people to go vote. Her, along with that moron governor have now created a virus hotspot, aka, the State of Illinois! Now they cry foul, blame Trump and beg "save me"! Meanwhile,the two fake news rags, Slum Times and Fibune keep praising them for the great job they did! No credibility, shit newspapers. Funny how all the hotspots are in Democrat run cities and states. All have the same policies in place that put them in this position....
Groot hasn't made decision 1, all the stuff comes from Jabba da Hut down to her , she is got a Black Belt in deflection and mitigation . But when the shit hits the big fan she is gonna get browned up big time cause Jabba ain't gonna take any heat for her
Democrats have no shame. As China was being ravaged by the virus and Europe stared to see infections, the Democrats said nothing was wrong. Pelosi was walking through Chinatown in San Francisco and telling the media filming her visit that nothing was wrong. In New York City a city councilman and US congressman held a press conference in Chinatown and said nothing was wrong and it was racist to think there was. They encouraged people to come to Chinatown to celebrate Chinese New Year. The mayor of NYC said social distancing was unnecessary, and the HEALTH COMMISSIONER of NYC told people to ride the subways and attend the St Patrick’s Day parade. I don’t fault them for not understanding the severity earlier (though it’s hard not to fault the NYC HEALTH COMMISSIONER) because they were not the only ones. But now they blame Trump and say he was slow to act. When Trump stopped flights from coming into America from China he was overreacting and racist according to Democrats.
When all is said and done, Groot will be remembered as Chicago's Corona fashion model.
While Trump was closing borders at the end of January in response to this virus, all the dems, groot and jb included , were more focused on the impeachment of Trump in the senate. They are still focused on his removal at any cost, especially with their bungling and the loss of life.
Do not waste a crisis if it can give you cover for your own incompetence!
Gov Fat Ass and the Toad Princess are chronic liars. They and the Socialist Democrats have no control of the events They are terrified at their exposure to the sunshine of truth. The only game left is blaming Trump and the federal government. They are Master Pricks.
It's true, I found some video from a while back showing the mayor in one of those table-top exercises: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMxTFqPET5I
The FakeNews won’t question the mystic shaman DrEvil Larri ShortFuse M.D. (mad dingbat) how she came about her flip-flop.
40,000 will be hospitalized ! People are going to die !
It means they pandemic is here to stay, for Gods sake, Stay Home-Stay Alive™️ !
Larri competing for a Nobel Peace medallion or what?
No wonton for you.
Even Nanny Pelosi did a tour of her SF Chinatown district around the same time as chicken little touting the safeness.
Both of these stunts were in response to the President’s swift decision China travel ban.
Listen to the two assholes JB & Larry with their scripted palaver is disgusting.
It’s obvious they rehearse beforehand, they are never off balance or without a reply to those invitation-only daily pressers.
Their bullshit it getting worse, even as these medical supplies are piling in. They created a false shortage. Like goofs buying up all the toilet paper.
Hospitals are private for profit enterprises, if they’re short on supplies ITS THEIR MANAGEMENTS FAULT. But I highly doubt they’re supplies are exhausted. Hospitals are required to be stocked and staffed for any disaster as is the State-City Emergency Management services.
We know JB &Larry squander money for the sake of sanctuary and there are not any reserves, maybe some outdated over purchases but no stock rotation or logistics tracking is ever done. If it is, it’s not being reported. They FAILED.
Interesting is that California has a $21 billion dollar reserve fund for disaster relief services. But they still were looking for handouts during the droughts, the forest fires, the homeless, the earthquakes.
Illinois has no jobs and Gov Piggly Wiggles is relying (as he’s suppose to) on foreign manufacturing to finally buy supplies he was to already have on hand.
Breaking the budgets.
No panic at the disco when 500 died by murder every year since 2015. The feral are still robbing, still shooting and there’s no urgency. JB is saving the jailbirds, are they really sick or just excuse emptying the prisons? A George Ryan dire stunt.
Donald J Trump is not scared. The Democrats sure are. This pandemonium of fear will hurt the Dems in November nationwide and I’ll bet the GOP will regain the US House of Representatives by taking back at least 3 IL seats we lost in 2018. That’s troubling for JB, Turpin Durban & DuckWorthless too.
A weak floundering and ruined economy is a proven method to get change in White House administrations.
But people aren’t that stupid as Dems play them to be.
Dems and FakeNews will continue to make this DJT fault, it’s all they got and if it can’t last until October as they hope, they have another impeachment plan stewing.

What a coincidence, Rod Rosenstein, the one who wanted to wear a wire to entrap President Trump, has a sister, Dr. Nancy Messonnier, who is Director at The CDC’s National Center for Immune & Respiratory Disease.

no other city or county in the state gets any federal aid. Only Shitago.
There is no plan. Bosses refusing exposure and IOD reports. Larry should call Pelosi for directions.
"The "table-top exercises" consisted of Groot and Fatass sitting at a table passing a single sheet of paper back-and-forth that said "Orange Man Bad!" about fifty times - kind of like the typing that Jack Torrence did in The Shining."
Great writing! I'd like to see this "plan" published somewhere. All I've heard is how JB says he can't get anything he asks for from Trump. Why are so many people suddenly walking around wearing face masks? Maybe JB should ask them where they are getting them. I agree the press conferences are a waste of time. A bunch of pre-prepared questions and answers.
Gov. Fatfuckster is organizing an airlift from China to Chicago of medical supplies.
Even during a pandemic these assholes just can't help themselves. Helped by the local rags I wouldn't wipe my ass with. And they expect you guys to risk your health and professional lives by shutting down blocks against the constitution for their stats?
They tried that once right? With the contact cards. Next time its on you.
I just got off the phone with my sister who works for one of the downtown banks in government bond underwriting. She said that their bosses have tasked them with developing bond price projections for new issues for the city and state (interestingly not County) if there was an across the board cut in their budgets by 3%, 5%, 7% and 10%, which includes personnel costs. I asked her if that meant layoffs or pay cuts and she said they weren’t told those details at this time. One or both will have to take place. So I guess that’s how they’ll pay for all the give aways and loss of revenue in taxes and fees.
Is it true the city employee that passed away was from OEMC? 911 center on Madison? That’s the reason why they split them up between Madison and 311 center. City is not being very transparent.
Pritzker was mad at Trump . Trump said what do you need. reply was masks. He got them but Pritzker got pissed because they were not what he wanted. a day later he brags about sending masks throughout the state. Most likely the masks the Feds gave him but won't say that.. Will not give any kudos to Trump.

Of course the MSM is on their side and whitewashes everything they can for these two progressive idiots. They are Twins, one tall, one short, both lying sacks of crap democrats. That fool mayor in NYC is one reason why the city is experiencing all the CV cases they are. Same leadership and smarts as Groot, none. She likes the TV appearances, makes her feel important like a dictator. And besides she can show off her new pantsuit disasters.
So the rest of the states gets nothing, only Chicago gets money? Real fair indeed. "Everyone’s equal, just some more than others". Yes that old line still as true as ever. The Epoch Times refers to the virus as the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus. Good name for it, as the name matters so much to some, still the dems would cry and whine.
"Rikers Island faces its own coronavirus outbreak as its chief physician issued a stark warning that vulnerable inmates should be released". To rob or injure citizens, to infect more people on the outside? Place them in single cells, They deserve nothing special at all. The progressives want the prisons and jails emptied one way or the other. But remember their hypocritical motto, Not In My Backyard or Neighborhood. Put them up at de blowhole's house to start with.
Is that the same tabletop exercises that they did, when they told the Michigan ave merchants Assoc that they were prepared for the Mass inter city teens wilding and causing havoc?

Yes these morons chant Orange Man Bad, it's a favorite tune in dem cities and on the college campus. Then last week, 70 UT Austin students decided to ignore the inconvenient pandemic and chartered a flight to Cabo San Lucas because "Spring break dude". Of course, 28 of them (so far) have tested positive for COVID 19. Worse, a good number of the infected little turds returned via commercial flights, no doubt infecting hundreds of innocent people along the way. If any CV death can be traced to this little outing, each and every one of these walking Petri dishes should be indicted for negligent homicide. But they will sing the Orange Man Bad song even louder now they are sick. AKA It's All Trump's Fault.
No more public paid graves anywhere. Didn't make a money plan for death, cremate.
Saw Groot on Chicago Tonight. Says she's appalled that Trump's stockpile only has 4000 ventilators. She says that the city has been preparing for just this type of emergency and thus was ready for the pandemic when it struck. Conversely, she says "what was the Trump administration doing for three and a half years that they've failed to plan a sufficient amount of ventilators. Well Larry, if you planned for every contingency, and thus knew there wasn't enough ventilators, why didn't you sound the alarm? I'll hang up and wait for my answer.
I’m scared shitless!

Yep. It is true.
2fm. Fleet facilities on 39th has one person from security test positive about 2 weeks ago and they waited 5 days to send out notification to the employees leaving them possibly at risk
Now a machinist and his wife have tested positive along with a plumber foreman who up until a few days ago were required to sit on the 4th floor in a 25 x 30ft office with at least 25 cubicles
Some people who worked within or near them have been given doctor noted for quarantine but the new personal director Shirley Fischer takes her time processing things and it’s been taking 2-3 days of continual emails asking for approval or clarification if all the paperwork has been properly submitted
A labor is waiting since this morning for a simple answer
And right now we hear that the workers who are setting up the temp 311 center and working in close contact have not been provided with the proper safety devices as they are touching everything
And to top it off the commissioner seems to be a self appointed doctor with him blaming the workers for this problem
The Director of facilities said that masks, Sanitizer gloves are not required as part of PPE and will not be provided But I’m sure she has plenty of them for herself in her office
Per OSHA regulations this is a recordable illness and it should not be confused with PPE equipment

Subject: AIS COVID 19 Response
++Supervisors - be sure to distribute to staff who don't normally access e-mail.
Over the past couple of weeks I've been preaching CDPH's recommendations to help control the spread of the COVID 19 virus: cover your cough; wash your hands; don't touch your face; maintain social distancing; and stay home if you don't feel well.
It's pretty clear based on recent positive COVID 19 tests in AIS that not everyone is following these recommendations. Here are some additional thoughts to encourage you to take these recommendations to heart.
RECOMMENDATIONS TO PROTECT YOU
"Wash your hands" and "don't touch your face" are recommendations primarily intended to protect you. Per CDPH the COVID 19 virus is spread when saliva or mucus from an infected individual gets into another person's eyes, nose, or mouth. In the event you become exposed to the COVID 19 virus by touching a surface that has an infected person's saliva or mucus on it, following these recommendations will help prevent transmission of the virus into your eyes, nose, or mouth.
RECOMMENDATIONS TO PROTECT OTHERS
"Cover your cough" and "stay home if you don't feel well" are recommendations primarily intended to protect others. As I wrote above, CDPH indicates the COVID 19 virus is spread via saliva and mucus from infected individuals. Covering your cough will help reduce the dispersion of saliva and mucus if you are infected. Staying home if you don't feel well is the best way of preventing the spread of COVID 19 since if you are home you cannot expose others.
RECOMMENDATION TO PROTECT YOU AND OTHERS
"Maintain social distancing" is a recommendation intended to protect you AND to protect others. If you are infected and you are more than six feet away from someone who isn't the likelihood you will transmit the virus to them is greatly reduced. If you are not infected and you are more than six feet away from someone who is the likelihood they will transmit the virus to you is greatly reduced.
On this point, let's talk about six feet. I am a little over six feet tall. So if you are maintaining good social distance I should be able to lay on the ground between you and another person and not touch you or the other person.
Here's another way to think about it. All of our mothers taught us not to point at other people; they'll give us a pass in this case. If you are standing or sitting near someone and you extend your arm to point at them, and they extend their arm to point at you, and your fingers can touch, it's very likely you are within six feet of each other, so take a step back!
CONCLUSION
As I wrote earlier it appears an AIS employee who recently tested positive for COVID 19 was not following these recommendations: they stayed at work when they didn't feel well and they did not maintain social distance from at least one of their coworkers (who is okay thus far).
Not to put too fine a point on it, but not following these recommendations is pretty foolish. Not doing so increases the likelihood you will get infected or, if you are infected, you will infect others - which could include your coworkers and your family.
People are dying from COVID 19. Following these recommendations could, literally, save your life and/or the lives of those around you.

Democrats do not prepare or think realistically. All they think about is scamming the tax payer and whats in it for me...always take care of me. They are walking talking disasters in a Disaster.
