These guys and all the other data sources are still tacking how bad it is getting
So much for "herd immunity"

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/

Worldwide
Deaths:
1,355,875

United States
Deaths:
256,262

I have to wonder how accurate those numbers are +/- 200%?

1848 dead just yesterday and now mayors of several cities in FLorida are getting to together to start suing the governor to re-establish mask wearing as new cases surge there

Interesting that Trump was apparently pissed that Pfizer didn't announce it before the election. Obviously Trump's plan was to take credit - as he's done all his adult life - for something he had absolutely nothing to do with.

It was Trump - not Biden - who was extolling the virtures of Mara-Lago's Chocolate Cake with Chinese president Xi Jinping as well as celebating what he (Trump) called "the great chemistry" between them.

Above ignored by 46zilzal...didn't get a "Bravo" as well? Shocking...

I think he should have to go to Canada to get the much anticipated Covid-19 vaccine shot.

That seems pretty incredibly asinine. Almost DeBlaisio level stupid.

DeBlasio would be proud.

So although Sweden is a Socialist country, you pandemic deniers latched on to misinterpreting their laissez faire approach to the virus as the heralded "herd immunity" solution for all time. Think again deniers

Sweden’s Covid infection rates soar above Spain and UK as hospitalisations double every week after shunning lockdown
https://www.the-sun.com/news/1831831...bove-spain-uk/

SWEDEN’S coronavirus infection rate has skyrocketed ahead of the UK as its second spike continues to rise.

The number of people hospitalised with the virus is almost doubling each week, after the country shunned the lockdown restrictions imposed by its neighbours and opted for a 'herd immunity' approach to the pandemic.

[rastajenk]

But all three lines are on a dramatic rise at nearly the same time. It's almost as if the lockdowns didn't work at nearly the same rate that no lockdown didn't work. So why lock down?
