@@ezfist9204 Saw those vids. What I took away from THIS video is how this Chinese business man went around with a team of Chinese people feeding his most vulnerable people. Is there a black equivalent to this? If not, why not? There are plenty African Americans (either entertainers, business people etc) who have the means to do exactly what he did. Maybe it is happening but it isn't being documented? Or its happening and they are all lives mattering it. Meaning they are giving to everyone. Also, this event should make us think twice about who we are supporting because in time of need they are nowhere to be found. Once we are out of this how can we prepare for the next time this happens. Because it will happen again...
@@ezfist9204 Chinese government doesn't represent Chinese in America. Chinese citizens don't represent Chinese in America. Asians in Asia don't represent Asians in America. STOP comparing. China and all of what's happening does not speak for those of Chinese ethnic in America. These Chinese have been in America for decades and stand by what America represents. Why are you blaming these people when they have nothing to do with China anymore? You are ridiculous. You can't group an entire race together including those abroad. It's like grouping all Africans together from America to Africa and even those in China, there's big differences between all of them and that applies to every other race as well.
Well cause America itself and the country itself hasn't betrayed us, an idea can't betray you. The leadership on the other hand can, when you encourage and fan xenophobic rhetoric instead of stopping it can be seen as a betrayal but that's why we have elections and it doesn't help that the Asian American community always has the lowest voter turnout.
@Andreana Calhoun You need to stop spreading the hate. Because haters don't have a place in the world, and there is no one to blame for something the whole world is suffering. America failed all their citizens by failing to respond effectively.
@Light York Sorry I know the hate has been there for longer than this. If you are American, and learned American history you would know the Chinese Exclusion act of 1882. This act restricts Chinese migration to America much like Trump and the South Americans and Mexicans. Btw I'm not Chinese. 🤯🤯🤯
@@PennyMsElite i don't want to sound as a communist , but this is one of the huge downsides of capitalism , they want to profit instead of giving people free healthcare

My mom who is 73 years old is quarantined alone, no one has helped her, I'm immune compromised and not one person in my development has asked if I needed anything, barely surviving. People who care about others are the people who care and make a difference, just don't forget about those who are being ignored. I'm 45 minutes from NYC on Long Island and here there has been no one here that cares! Be safe everyone♥️😷
Makes me sad for the people struggling right now, I am too. I have had no work for two months. If it wasn't for my SSD I would be screwed. I warms my heart for the Chinese American guy feeding the elderly, he's a really good guy.
$5000 dollars for covid test?? It's expensive! Here you can pay for RM500-600 ($120) for a test. But it is free when the government find out you are close contact with a positive covid patient.
I mean, where I'm from you can get tested at a private clicic for 250€ and everyone was so mad about that. Still free to those with severe symptoms etc.
Not surprised. As a doctor I just gave a person a script for a cholesterol tablet that costs $30 in Australia but the American chap said that at home they cost $500 ! Corporations ripping people off some ?
Every point that Bernie raised about what's wrong with the richest country in the world in his campaign is proving its validity. The world is watching and criticizing the broken healthcare and education system in this country. Hoping for the best and wishing my Amerian friends a better future. Stay safe y'all.
@Dra O it's not "free". It's paid from your Taxes, first of all. And the rest of the developed world have some sort of nationalized healthcare system provided and take care of by the governments. I don't see them going bankrupt. Please do your research before making such false statements. I live in Austria and have traveled most of the EU. None of these countries are bankrupt (infact doing far better than US in economic terms) and average debt/person is far less than what you have. They just know how to spend their federal budget wisely and what to prioritize before investing in endless wars. Hope that enlightens you.
Remember that American dream we grew up with? Parents, teachers, celebs, all telling us to about that American dream?? Yeah... Never thought it turned out to be a nightmare.

The Coronavirus death rate for 80 years olds is 14.8%. Patients ages 70 to 79 years have a death rate of 8% and those ages 60 to 69 have a death rate of 3.6%. (Younger age groups have lower death rates; 1.3% for those 50 to 59; 0.4% for the age group 40 to 49; and just 0.2% for people ages 10 to 39.)
Its not about the death rate. The problem is if your country supplies will be enough to support a high influx of people getting infected. Even if they are not dead, hundreds of people testied posituve and needing to be in treatwd everyday will wear the medical system down
Sickness and death is STILL sickness and death. Each percentage point is person. A mother, father, sister, brother, and friend. Both people who have a history of medical problems and healthy have died from COVID-19. Testing is the only way to make sure that the virus gets contained.
i don't get it, US$5k for a test?? How much exactly are these people making from these tests?? In my country Malaysia at private hospitals it's just RM800/900, which is around US$200. But at government hospitals it's free. The health ministry are even testing foreigners/migrant workers after there was an outbreak at a place in Kuala Lumpur; for free.. People need to be tested so that they an be isolated & get treatment, how else is the country going to get well if you don't test & get them treatment.. USA is one heck of a weird place. It's as if the President & the government hates it own people.. Greatest nation in the world? I don't think so. I'm so grateful i wasn't born & living in America.
No politician will be held responsible for the suicide of an unemployed young man or woman who has lost hope. But they believe they will be held responsible for the immediate death of a 94-year old from, or with, COVID-19. Should have lived within our means. I remember when NY went broke in 1975 and went hat in hand to DC and was turned down. Tightened our belts for 25 years, then 9/11 then fell back to the old way of doing business.
i live in new york and i am saddened by the xenophobia going on. our local chinese restaurants owner is a good man and the people he fed when they couldnt afford the food attacked him and his wife. its disgusting. racism is disgusting.
$5,000 for a covd test? Isnt that highway robbery? This is free in our country, the philippines. And we are not a rich country. I know its also free in many countries in asia. Govt encourages people to get a test to get a real picture of the situation. Besides if test are not free, people will not want to get a test and if theyre positive they would infect a lot of people. Test and hospitalization due to covid is free in many countries including ours. And i was informed by govt that a korean made test kit cost $150 but a locally developed rapid test kit only cost $25. But of course its free for us, citizens. Also govt is providing relief packs including rice, coffee, canned goods to every family and they also get cash. Senior citizens gets more too. Pres duterte has ordered all tenants to waive rents for a month. Credit card companies have waived fees, interest and penalties and is providing emergency cash assistance. We are a third world country and so we expect US to be better but this video showed otherwise
We are going through and I lost my job and lost my uncle to Covid 19 there’s no income single household parent sad I pray to God that there going to be light at the end of the tunnel I’m hopeful
The numbers of ppl that are tested positive are massive & the scarier thing is that there are SO many ppl who aren’t able to get checked...imagine what the numbers truly are...😳
The response of the states to this is unacceptable. Taxpayers money goes to the city managers and hospitals to prepare for emergencies. For months they could have put a plan in place.
Economic activities should be opened noted that people comply to safety guidelines. But what is happening now, people are not following the safety measures. Some of them are just selfish.
Essential businesses and online businesses will be the backbone of our economy for the while, and taxes/money circulations will begin to reflect that if this goes on any longer. Economically, we will recover, even if it’s not entirely the same as before. Hopefully people will begin to see the system that’s broken and begin to fix it. Our government needs to be for the people by the people. Not for big corporation by the wealthy.
Meanwhile, three quarantines later, I find myself the sole provider for three high risk elderly people, while I, myself am considered high risk, the others rate higher, so I do the going out, like it or not. I’ve no work, lost my medical insurance, don’t qualify for anything.
I have been living a life full of struggling working jobs a they fired me because they don't like me and they think i don't deserve the money so I'm not stressed I'm not caught up I'm brought up ..🌏
I got fired as well last week...For refusing to endanger my life. Idk what's wrong with people in this world... I feel your pain and I'm so sorry you gotta go through this.
Now that was just f#$&%'d up... basically "give us your money or your life" and being around children in a school setting not considered high risk?! OMG poor guy so glad he's okay... what a damn shame...
My biggest fear is that when a cure is found, whoever owns it will charge an arm and a leg for it. Which means that only people with the right insurance or the right amount of money will benefit from it while everyone else will have to fend for themselves. Or it will be made into a treatment instead of a cure where patients will have to take it on a weekly or monthly basis and get charged for it every step of the way.
It's even worse for poor, disabled,elderly,minorities especially those who are homeless and waiting for government housing if you're a gay single guy you're not only lonely but have no one
Mazen Mady Really?? America is suppose to be racial diversity. It’s like going to any ethnic majority country and not expect ignorance. This argument is so ridiculous
Andreana Calhoun I said America is suppose to be a place where all race share equal experiences without bias, hence why we are Americans. We are the place that prove to the world that we can be racially equal. Ok, but then you go off and twist my argument, saying let’s make China racially diverse. I specifically said America, its founding ideals are based on diversity. Unless you differ from that :$
Why dont they call South Korea on speed dial? They have plenty of tests to test people. They just sent 500,000 tests kits to Maryland, thanks to the help of the Governor's wife, who is South Korean, who single handedly negotiated a contract with a South Korean biotech company along with the South Korean ambassador to the US. Is one person can do this. Why cant a major city like NYC do it? Just doesnt make sense.
You could be IN wuhan, doesnt matter, that doesnt mean you get a test. We have limited resources, and limited people who can process the tests. Right now the tests are for people on the front lines, and for patients who are ACTUALLY sick. This guy should be counting his damn blessing that hes not sick and doesnt actually NEED a test
This guy is my life..hanging on the phone when you feel like you can- Trying to make the right moves.. Yep America ..no safety net when everyone is in free fall
Test and quarantine all infected people. DO NOT send infected people home. Quarantine them away from the hospital. Send only the severe cases to the hospital. Send only non contagious recovered patients home. See S. Korea's response. They did it right!
The grass isn't always greener on the other side. We sometimes get sold a whole lot of chicken feed about how greener this or that country is.Now covid-19 has laid bare how artificial some green grass are. It will be well soon,let's hold on for a little while.
Yes, we should care about everyone. We should all have health insurance without going broke. If we all have health insurance it would keep all citizens healthier. We should care about the working poor, remember they want thier kids to do better.
Dissolve Division = we are ONE. Everything must collapse before we can begin again. EVERY SYSTEM. Then we can begin with equality, transparency and community. No more 1%.
It isnt only bad in usa but everywhere the same. I got laid off from. Job & we dont get anything from the govt. So we're living on borrowed time, Its a minus every month.
I suggest to do a video series about Covid in New York and to be honest I’m from the Bronx it’s going north from Manhattan and the area is mostly low income working class people and honestly you should get a perspective from them instead of covering the rich part of New York and in my personal life this virus has caused us to stop working in general and the state of the Bronx is pure panic people buying what little is left in store shelf’s and what little is left the prices for food are rising for some people that can’t afford it
jesus salvador, you’re totally correct! I see it in the Bronx also. There are long lines outside of stores and many empty shelves inside! People are going to have to return to the “old-fashioned” way of living so as not to starve over the next few months!
Sakky Sha you are right and honestly the Bronx never gets any coverage even though we are a part of New York I find AJ+ to be hypocritical when they cover the rich part of New York
Sakky Sha thank you but the reality of the situation is really panic there’s even a video of hospital here in the Bronx that it closed it’s doors to more patients I am not sure what the hell is going on here but like my fellow bronxiets I am scared and in panic
We will never know how many people have been infected with this virus.
Truthfully no we won't ever really know how many have been infected and that's the scary part. Me and my husband were showing symptoms but we're both young and we're told to stay home instead of being tested. So who knows how many cases go unreported here in the US and globally.

I remember when NY went broke in 1975 and went hat in hand to DC and was turned down. Tightened our belts for 25 years, then 9/11 then fell back to the old way of doing business.
Anyone got Junior's IG? I'd like to help if I can.
Please do so the rest of us don't.
I found her as "juniormintt" on Instagram and I'm gonna start following her. It looks like she has a Patreon you can support her on, too.
@@ReverieNightengale That was a man in drag?
@@chownful Junior is trans and goes by she/her.
@@ReverieNightengale Is it common for drag queens to be transgender females?
respect to your efforts with supporting and looking out for the senior citizens! :)
God bless America
i live in new york and i am saddened by the xenophobia going on. our local chinese restaurants owner is a good man and the people he fed when they couldnt afford the food attacked him and his wife. its disgusting. racism is disgusting.
Don, what an incredible man to band the community together quickly to get people fed and safe.
$5,000 for a covd test? Isnt that highway robbery? This is free in our country, the philippines. And we are not a rich country. I know its also free in many countries in asia. Govt encourages people to get a test to get a real picture of the situation. Besides if test are not free, people will not want to get a test and if theyre positive they would infect a lot of people. Test and hospitalization due to covid is free in many countries including ours. And i was informed by govt that a korean made test kit cost $150 but a locally developed rapid test kit only cost $25. But of course its free for us, citizens. Also govt is providing relief packs including rice, coffee, canned goods to every family and they also get cash. Senior citizens gets more too. Pres duterte has ordered all tenants to waive rents for a month. Credit card companies have waived fees, interest and penalties and is providing emergency cash assistance. We are a third world country and so we expect US to be better but this video showed otherwise
We are going through and I lost my job and lost my uncle to Covid 19 there’s no income single household parent sad I pray to God that there going to be light at the end of the tunnel I’m hopeful
The numbers of ppl that are tested positive are massive & the scarier thing is that there are SO many ppl who aren’t able to get checked...imagine what the numbers truly are...😳
It is when you couldnt breath, that's when you will be brought to the hospital. If you have a minor symtoms you need to isolate yourself at home.
What a lovely video of compassionate people!
The response of the states to this is unacceptable. Taxpayers money goes to the city managers and hospitals to prepare for emergencies. For months they could have put a plan in place.
Welcome to Gaza.
Gos bless those going above and beyond to care for those in need!
World has really went upside down. Goes to show how weak the creations are, including human beings
Economic activities should be opened noted that people comply to safety guidelines. But what is happening now, people are not following the safety measures. Some of them are just selfish.
Essential businesses and online businesses will be the backbone of our economy for the while, and taxes/money circulations will begin to reflect that if this goes on any longer. Economically, we will recover, even if it’s not entirely the same as before. Hopefully people will begin to see the system that’s broken and begin to fix it. Our government needs to be for the people by the people. Not for big corporation by the wealthy.
Meanwhile, three quarantines later, I find myself the sole provider for three high risk elderly people, while I, myself am considered high risk, the others rate higher, so I do the going out, like it or not. I’ve no work, lost my medical insurance, don’t qualify for anything.
I have been living a life full of struggling working jobs a they fired me because they don't like me and they think i don't deserve the money so I'm not stressed I'm not caught up I'm brought up ..🌏
get irs relief money & unemployment which has a bonus 600
I got fired as well last week...For refusing to endanger my life. Idk what's wrong with people in this world... I feel your pain and I'm so sorry you gotta go through this.
Now that was just f#$&%'d up... basically "give us your money or your life" and being around children in a school setting not considered high risk?! OMG poor guy so glad he's okay... what a damn shame...
My biggest fear is that when a cure is found, whoever owns it will charge an arm and a leg for it. Which means that only people with the right insurance or the right amount of money will benefit from it while everyone else will have to fend for themselves. Or it will be made into a treatment instead of a cure where patients will have to take it on a weekly or monthly basis and get charged for it every step of the way.
It's even worse for poor, disabled,elderly,minorities especially those who are homeless and waiting for government housing if you're a gay single guy you're not only lonely but have no one
Thank god we🏴 have a free healthcare.
OK so you mention xenophobia against Chinese people in America but not about foreigners in China
Mazen Mady Really?? America is suppose to be racial diversity. It’s like going to any ethnic majority country and not expect ignorance. This argument is so ridiculous
@@nnarcissminator3193 so what your say is racism is allowed along as there is minority
Mazen Mady that’s called begging the question, it’s a fallacy. I did not in nowhere in my sentence said it is ok for minority to be racist.
@@nnarcissminator3193 but that is what was suggested by your statement
Andreana Calhoun I said America is suppose to be a place where all race share equal experiences without bias, hence why we are Americans. We are the place that prove to the world that we can be racially equal. Ok, but then you go off and twist my argument, saying let’s make China racially diverse. I specifically said America, its founding ideals are based on diversity. Unless you differ from that :$
Why dont they call South Korea on speed dial? They have plenty of tests to test people. They just sent 500,000 tests kits to Maryland, thanks to the help of the Governor's wife, who is South Korean, who single handedly negotiated a contract with a South Korean biotech company along with the South Korean ambassador to the US. Is one person can do this. Why cant a major city like NYC do it? Just doesnt make sense.
Shame on the president and his whole team and even the IRS
I would have lied and said I had contact wuhan residents even if I didn't
You have to be lying on a stretcher to get that test. I don;t get it they said it didn't matter if he was working with kids that was't high risk"Duh"
You could be IN wuhan, doesnt matter, that doesnt mean you get a test. We have limited resources, and limited people who can process the tests. Right now the tests are for people on the front lines, and for patients who are ACTUALLY sick. This guy should be counting his damn blessing that hes not sick and doesnt actually NEED a test
I’m only 2 minutes in and I’m on the verge of tears. 🎈
I've been on and off sick since december.
This guy is my life..hanging on the phone when you feel like you can- Trying to make the right moves..
Yep America ..no safety net when everyone is in free fall
I dont like how none of our taxes go to free healthcare
From this video I learnt that why America has the highest cases.
Test and quarantine all infected people. DO NOT send infected people home. Quarantine them away from the hospital. Send only the severe cases to the hospital. Send only non contagious recovered patients home. See S. Korea's response. They did it right!
If I don't find a job soon, jumping out the window Is the best option.
The coughing TRIGGERED ME!!!!🥴😬
The grass isn't always greener on the other side. We sometimes get sold a whole lot of chicken feed about how greener this or that country is.Now covid-19 has laid bare how artificial some green grass are. It will be well soon,let's hold on for a little while.
Yes, we should care about everyone. We should all have health insurance without going broke. If we all have health insurance it would keep all citizens healthier. We should care about the working poor, remember they want thier kids to do better.
May I ask the senior center Don works for? Does he only serve one borough?
Dissolve Division = we are ONE. Everything must collapse before we can begin again. EVERY SYSTEM. Then we can begin with equality, transparency and community. No more 1%.
Actually democracy has come to a borderline in US. Lack of obedience even discipline.
Wow it’s surprising how one call caused schools across NYC closed. Kids must be loving 🥰 him.
Yep and trump is our modern day Nero playing golf while New York viruses down.
Is there a way we can help these people featured in this video?
and yet someone is filming him when he could have covid....
It isnt only bad in usa but everywhere the same.
I got laid off from. Job & we dont get anything from the govt.
So we're living on borrowed time,
Its a minus every month.
America is a developing country.
Great video.
I suggest to do a video series about Covid in New York and to be honest I’m from the Bronx it’s going north from Manhattan and the area is mostly low income working class people and honestly you should get a perspective from them instead of covering the rich part of New York and in my personal life this virus has caused us to stop working in general and the state of the Bronx is pure panic people buying what little is left in store shelf’s and what little is left the prices for food are rising for some people that can’t afford it
jesus salvador, you’re totally correct! I see it in the Bronx also. There are long lines outside of stores and many empty shelves inside! People are going to have to return to the “old-fashioned” way of living so as not to starve over the next few months!
Sakky Sha you are right and honestly the Bronx never gets any coverage even though we are a part of New York I find AJ+ to be hypocritical when they cover the rich part of New York
jesus salvador you’re speaking the truth 100%!!
Sakky Sha thank you but the reality of the situation is really panic there’s even a video of hospital here in the Bronx that it closed it’s doors to more patients I am not sure what the hell is going on here but like my fellow bronxiets I am scared and in panic
Upstate NY has set up a drive up testing sites for free testing
What costs $5000 in a test for Covid 19 ? Why is capitalism always in the way of the public good?
I'm out NYC, not coming back, sorry.
Trivina Negzerial 🖐🏾
The US has turned their backs against God. You think you don't need Him, think again. You pay the consequences.
Amen
Is the test really $5k?
I got mine for ~70
It's free in Brazil
Really sad but true.
