With nurses and doctors working around the clock over the past three months to try and save the lives of people who have caught COVID-19 and the US just reaching an unprecedented 100,000 deaths, you would think people would be able to put partying aside for just a little longer.
That was not the case over the weekend however, when hundreds of Missouri residents hit the Lake of the Ozarks for a Memorial Day celebration. Standing together in a pool it seemed that attendees cared little for the advised 6ft rule, with many of them forgoing masks. Check out the footage below:
Current US death toll: 97,414
Incubation period: 2-14 days

My wife and I are agonizing over whether we can go to a very good friend’s birthday dinner at another friend’s restaurant on Friday where they are not open to patrons for seated meals and we are guaranteed to have table distancing. Meanwhile at Lake of the Ozarks: pic.twitter.com/tUm0B38AAi

I don’t think health care workers, who have been risking their lives & working burnout hours for 3 months, should have to treat these pompous dumbasses who flocked (irony🐑)to Ocean City and Lake of the Ozarks this weekend. Never ceases to amaze me how selfish Americans can be pic.twitter.com/4j9uww0Itd
