But we all know deaths lag infections so I expect well stay over 1000/day for awhile.

about 20 days after Governor Free-dumb closed the Bars again. Masks are much more prominent too. Its almost like the science is real

Today: 734

It will be interesting to see the numbers the rest of the week since numbers spike from Tuesday through Friday in Dallas

I think you'll see the numbers continue to rise in the far suburbs and rural areas because they don't get it

Bars are by nature crowded and people are consuming a drug that makes them stupid and uninhibited.

The 🦠 loves bars.

I would occasionally go to bars with coworkers, and watch decently intelligent people become more stupid with each subsequent drink. Then they would start spitting a little with each word spoken.

I remember Trump saying, back in February, that there only 15 cases in the US. Everybody but him knew that number was going to dramatically increase. Or is it right to say that everybody, including him, knew it?

Either way it demonstrates what a disgusting person he is.

the fact that he stood by and did nothing, or did all the wrong things, and watched tens-of-thousands of people die because his priority was running a campaign based on a strong economy.

He said we were warriors, like we should all be willing to fight Covid and die for the economy and his re-election.
