Recently on Douyin, I saw a lot of Americans saying that they lost their jobs and their families were almost in trouble. Don’t Americans have the awareness to save money?

After mid-April, large marches and rallies demanding the resumption of work broke out in many states across the United States. Similar protests broke out in the capitals of Minnesota, Michigan and Virginia, as well as in parts of Kentucky and California.

On April 19, the cumulative number of confirmed cases in the United States exceeded 740,000, and the cumulative death toll exceeded 38,000. There were 4,593 new deaths the day before, making it still the country with the worst epidemic in the world. Medical institutions in the United States randomly tested 200 passers-by on the streets of Massachusetts and found that one-third were confirmed positive for the new coronavirus, and most of them were asymptomatic infections.

The COVID-19 epidemic in the United States is far from reaching its peak and turning point, but the two different views of requiring resumption of work and insisting on isolation are fiercely confronting each other at all levels of society. And the "provocation" of US President Trump has made the differences in American society even more torn!

1. Demonstrations demanding resumption of work broke out across the United States

According to the British Reuters report, when US President Trump tweeted, urging his supporters to "liberate" states, a day later Various large-scale protests broke out in various states across the United States.

Protesters in front of the Texas Statehouse

On April 15, a driving protest was held in Frankfort, Kentucky, USA. Protesters drove cars and walked in the state People circled around the Capitol, denouncing the governor's stay-at-home measures and demanding a return to work, with most people not wearing masks.

In Huntington Beach, California, about 100 demonstrators gathered in the city center despite the ban, holding signs that read "Give me liberty or give me death" to protest against the state government's quarantine measures. Most of them People don't wear masks.

In front of the governor’s mansion in Minnesota, 400 protesters wore various costumes supporting Trump and wore little red hats with the words “America Great Again” and Trump’s name printed on them, demanding Return to work immediately, lift quarantine, and most people don’t wear masks.

In Austin, the capital of Texas, about 300 protesters gathered in front of the Capitol, holding a huge Stars and Stripes flag, opposing quarantine measures, demanding a return to work, and holding up slogans "Fire Fauci". Most people don't wear masks.

The above are only some examples of states in the United States that have begun "return to work demonstrations." This week, many states in the United States have witnessed similar demands, marches and rallies of varying sizes and numbers. Many of these protesters are die-hard fans of US President Trump, and their actions were even praised by Trump on Twitter!

On April 17, in the face of protests against quarantine and calls for resumption of work activities in various places, Trump took a very positive attitude. He sent three tweets in succession: "Liberate Michigan", "Liberate Minnesota", "Liberate Virginia and save your great Second Amendment, which is being blocked."

Top of Power believes that the contents of these three consecutive tweets are concise and concise, and all use eye-catching capital letters. This move encouraged Trump's most ardent far-right supporters, as if they heard a call to arms. So the next day, on April 18, larger demonstrations in support of resumption of work took place in various states across the United States. and rally!

2. Random street testing in the United States, nearly 1/3 of the confirmed cases

Why did Trump mention Minnesota, Virginia, and Michigan separately in his tweets? ? Because these three states are swing states that are neutral to both parties, Trump still does not forget the November general election while fighting the epidemic, intending to win votes in these three key states!

Random testing of passers-by on the streets of a small town in Massachusetts

According to a report by the US media Fox News on April 18, a medical research institution located in Massachusetts has only 40,000 residents in the state. On the streets of the small city of Chelsea, 200 passers-by were randomly tested for COVID-19. The participants were anonymous, but the test results were "worrying."

Among these 200 random and anonymous testees, 64 tested positive, accounting for nearly 1/3 of the confirmed cases, and did not show any symptoms. They had never been tested before! Currently, Massachusetts is the third most severely affected state in the United States.

Experts from U.S. medical institutions said that this random test shows that the number of confirmed cases currently announced in the United States is far lower than the actual number of confirmed cases. Many people do not take the initiative to get tested when they do not have symptoms of a crisis. These people have become asymptomatic carriers of the new coronavirus, but they can still infect those around them.

Top of Great Powers believes that from the above, it can be seen that the United States is already the number one in the world in terms of the COVID-19 epidemic. The actual situation is even more serious than the announced number of confirmed cases of more than 740,000. Asymptomatic viruses have already appeared. Carrier! However, many Americans can no longer withstand the economic and loan repayment pressures brought about by quarantine, and demand that they start returning to work before the epidemic reaches an inflection point.

Just 2 weeks ago, most Americans supported chief medical expert Fauci’s anti-epidemic measures. He did not appear at the White House press conference for a day, and the trending tweet was "Fauci." Where have you gone? Fauci is back." However, amid calls for resumption of work, "Fire Fauci" has become a hot topic on Twitter recently, which has to be said to be a kind of irony.

Look at these individualistic protesters in the United States. They all think that they will not be the unlucky person who gets sick. The American elite has been promoting happy education policies and an extreme liberal spirit for decades. Now that this is happening, I am afraid that the great "wisdom" seems to be a fool!
