There's so much false and disinformation going around, you don't know what to believe.
Every two bit politician has to voice an opinion, whether it makes sense or not, just to get his/her ugly mug on a camera.
First they make everyone stay home for several months, then they come out with a study that says you're more likely to get the virus if you stay home. What the heck?
You can't get decent medical care for routine stuff 'cause the doctors and nurses are too preoccupied with the virus to take any ailment seriously if it's not somehow connected to the virus.
The scary part is, with federal money in the system, there's an incentive for the various medical facilities to over report the number of cases and deaths. Case in point: Last week Texas over reported the virus deaths by 225. Was that an honest mistake, or were they trying to get more federal (taxpayer) money? Have there actually been 160,000 deaths, or is the number actually half of that? Who knows?
Also, I heard locally recently that a fellow was killed in a motorcycle accident, and when it was learned that he'd been exposed to someone who tested positive for the virus two days before the accident, his cause of death was changed from motorcycle accident to COVID19. Don' know how true it is, but it's believable if the reporting agency could get more money by reporting it as the virus.
I hate wearing a mask, 'cause I have yet to find a mask, or a method of wearing one, that doesn't fog up my glasses. Then, too, I've been in politics and other high profile positions most of my adult life, and people I don't recognize routinely greet me by name and begin a conversation. I've learned to cope with it, but multiply it by about ten when everyone is wearing a mask.
People are jumping all over our leader and calling it "his" virus, but all he can do is respond to the information he's given, whether it's valid or not. I think he's done the best he could under horrible conditions. Considering the beating he's taken and survived, you gotta admire him just for that.
The bottom line is, I'm frustrated because you simply don't know what to believe.
