Scottsdale, Arizona Bars Three Weeks Ago

Everyone was celebrating Arizona's early reopening I guess:

1. And Arizona has it worst by far of all U.S. states -- daily new cases per capita

(7 day moving average)

What you'll see when the page loads, and sometimes it takes awhile for all the stick charts to load of all 50 states -- be patient -- is little charts for each state on an equal per-capita basis, 7 day moving average of daily new cases. Arizona stands out as the tallest, next is Florida. (Tallest means most new cases per capita).

Arizona doesn't quite make as many headlines as Texas, Florida, and California, because its not as populous as these states, so the total number of new cases in thousands is smaller than the more populous states. But again, on a new cases per-capita basis, it's number one.

Trump: too much testing too much testing too much testing

2. Can't blame any of their skyrocketing CV on "snowbirds"

Bet a few down there would love to stick the blame and excuses on "foreigners".

3. So the crisis is over in Arizona?

Idiots.

6. Well Trump said that COVID-19 is mostly harmless...

...so when you have the President continuing to cheerlead for an immediate reopening.

4. good

I go into the public with masks and gloves and people try to give me the stare. I give it right back to the maskless idiots. Don't care if they get sick and die. Good riddance in my book.

5. I will continue to wear a mask.

If others want to play Russian roulette with their health, oh well. With the numbers of new cases, it is stupid to go maskless, for everyone's sake.
