I have come to the point with covid where we are seeing extreme incompetence or we are seeing people with very evil intentions. And, to be honest, I could careless which the reason is, - we are coming to a very bad place.

I have spent many hours working with @JTUGS on the trends in the city of Columbus, Ohio She was/is much more eloquent articulating the current trends in Columbus than I am. Yet, time for eloquence is over. But the time for eloquence is over, its time for complete directness. https://twitter.com/jtugs/status/1285793427851018242

I will be showing you two graphs. There is no way you can look at these two graphs and come to the conclusions that Dr. Birx has come to in regards to Columbus, Ohio unless being ignorance of data or wanting to destroy our state. https://www.dispatch.com/news/20200726/columbus-could-be-next-covid-19-hot-spot-says-dr-deborah-birx-in-visit

Here is the first graph. It comes from the date the test are reported.

She is not looking at real trends It’s like looking at your two week paycheck and saying “Man I didn’t make any money the last 9 days, but I did great today!” It’s idiocy.

This graph shows when the symptoms started or when the test was given. Remember - the right side will fill in. But it’s clear. Columbus peaked in late June.

Now Mike Dewine, I personally know these two charts have been placed in your administrations hands. And yet your administration denies that the peak happened in late June. That makes you either a fool or evil. Either way you are dangerous.

Now to make it worse Columbus is closing bars and restaurants at 10pm. Where’s the proof that virus spreads worse at 10pm? Once again this is an arbitrary decision made by foolish people.

We can no longer allow people like this to have power. They are too dangerous no matter their intention. This is clear. It’s black and white. I am right. They are wrong. @JTUGS
