If we keep this up, we may actually elect a democratic senator. Never thought that would be possible pre Donald.
No one cares anymore... people are going about their lives. Nothing has changed other than the original panic is over.
Gee, it is as if something happened a week or so ago...what could it be, what could it be...? It's the damnedest thing, but for whatever reason, "Thursday, 5PM" keeps coming to mind but what could such a specific time and day have to do with a spike in COVID-19 cases? Eh, probably no big deal, right?
People are getting complacent. Tater stressed the mask mandate for a while, but then it fell by the wayside. State fair still a go, no masks required there. Bars and nightclubs packed with people yelling over loud music are just fine. We'll likely see it go even higher as the school viral spread works it way into the older relatives. God help us as we approach Thanksgiving. You can bet that is going to be a superspreading event in multiple households with many older people getting the disease.
Washington Post has us at 17th for infections and 6th in mortality over the past week. Multiple school football programs are experiencing COVID outbreaks and having to cancel games. We're going backward from a position of weakness. Good job guys.
It is amusing to witness all this. I have lived a rather monastic life since March; both because I’d rather err on the side of caution, and because I have embraced the chance to just flat-out ditch the boring social obligations. In the Before Times, one needed a polite excuse to say NO to things one didn’t feel like doing. And frankly, that includes hugging people. I always hated that, and now we all have a bulletproof excuse not to.
Things are different these days, and they shall remain different. I’m getting used to it, and so should you. Wear the mask, though, if you want to enjoy the Brave New World. To come...
So I understand that a number of people at the Madison County S.O. have tested positive. Two are in the hospital. This was traced back to a party the Sheriff hosted at his house. Good job Sheriff!
Some of the biggest spikes are in liberal states and cities but keep defecating on them good old boys. How many have gotten Covid in the beloved jackson.
Eli Lily has requested emergency approval for an antibody drug similar to what the great MAGA took the other day. Shown promise. Maybe TRUMP is the left's Guinea Pig.
3:09 That Eli Lily drug will only have 50,000 doses available by the end of the year. Antibody drugs like that work best when given quickly after exposure. By the time the disease has progressed enough to hospitalize a person its effectiveness is greatly reduced. You'll need to give it to all 40,000 people a day that are being confirmed with COVID to make a difference. That is doing absolutely no good as we start to spike now with even worse expected into November and December.
We've got to take mitigating action for a while until treatments like that, or better yet an effective vaccine, are widely available.
The sky is falling, the sky is falling, run for your lives!!
12:33, it MUST be! 6 days from infection, to incubation, to first symptoms, to downward spiral to winding up in the hospital on a vent. Gotta be the mask thing. Lock down the state! Shred the Constitution! Jail everyone that won’t wear The Talisman!
Why are two of the biggest private schools in the metro area, JA and Prep, not reporting their COVID numbers to the department of health? Or is the department of health not publishing them? What do they hide? Whose kids go there?

Total cases: 7,346
Deaths: 166
Any other dumb questions?
1:49, why don't you just check into hospice and expedite the inevitable. In the meantime, you're just producing CO2 and taking up space.
And here comes the state fair, our cleanup hitter, to ramp up those numbers. Go, Mississippi!
Hold my beer and look at muh big azz cowboy hat!

Yes, despite what Pence said, we have topped 3 years prior ordinary flu deaths and the year's not over . 2017,18,and 19 would be lower if not for the anti-vax crowd ( CDC's historic figures and statement , not mine).
Those years, along with 2016 depleted the supply. And, we sent that 18 ton shipment to China.
And, China travel was not " blocked", Chinese citizens were blocked. American business people and citizens in the 100's of thousand flew here from China after the so called "shut down".
We owe it to the gullibility of Trump supporters who believe everything he says or tweets.
Putin thanks you.

1: Yes, when you use diagnostics that aren’t designed to detect what they are pretending it does, absolutely. Makes cases and related deaths much higher when you rely on false data.
2: You are correct, we should have shut ALL traffic from china, US citizens as well. Shouldn’t be in china period.
3: Gullibility, like a man wearing a mask outside, alone, away from people, because “muh COVIDs in the air” (You)
4: Ignores declassified documents that PROVE Brennan knew the Russia collusion was a scam and coordinated with the FBI, then President Obama, and the Clinton campaign
@8:29
So you would have preferred that US citizens abroad would have been locked out of their own country? I'm sure that would be met with wild acceptance in your lunatic kingdom.
