1. I heard that, too, & it about knocked me over

2. It was a misspeak

Not worldwide, nationwide.

3. Yep, it MUST be!

Watching the briefing now:

Delta variant 83% of cases in the US. (Dr. Rachel Walensky)

Yes - it was 40% of all new cases nationwide. From the man heading the briefing at about 48:00 in this video:

Now, MSNBC has up the banner "40% of all new covid cases in Florida, Texas & Missouri" - while Andrea interviews Marco Rubio.

5. Literally digging their own graves just to "own the libs".

Fucking pathetic.
