We are officially entering another spike. The past few days the cases have been rising.

That means more death unfortunately. I am not cheering for this to get worse. None of us are but our fake leader is a super spreader.

Check out the numbers on world of meters.

Seems like the upper midwest is on fire. I noticed NC is not doing well.

I don’t trust our numbers in FL. Cases are “down” but deaths remain fairly high.

But let’s not overlook the bleak reality that we seem to be averaging 50,000+ new cases daily throughout the US.

No state is in the green, only a few in the yellow, with many in the orange, and a too-high percentage are still deeply in the red in terms of cases and deaths. This is terrifying. And the buffoon is still not taking it seriously.

Near Clearwater, according to a friend who worked there. Friday was her last day at that job but she will start to work home health on Monday. She had a bad case of Covid in February, has lingering issues. Her new job will be less risky and easier on her physically.

As numbers are the increasing in the majority of states, we are and will see dramatic increases as opposed to a steady increase. Florida opened bars, younger people mingling and getting infected, spreading it to friends, to parents, grandparents, clients, etc. I expect their numbers will shoot up, especially among the cult 45 members. If they follow his example they're going to get sick.
Other states will see a slower but steady increase as things move indoors and certain folks choose or continue to ignore CDC guidelines and protocols, not wearing a mask or social distancing.
