Central America 2,933,536 - Deaths 1,087 Per Million

East Asia 384 cases per million and death only 6 per million, not that a trust the media numbers in Asia




There's no reason to trust the numbers anywhere.

500,000 is a number.

On September 26, the White House held a Rose Garden event to announce the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court. Again, masks were not required, and very few attendees wore them. Five days later, the President and First Lady tested positive for the coronavirus. The next day Trump was taken via helicopter to Walter Reed.

His three-day hospitalization gave him an opportunity to recraft his coronavirus message. He didn't. In a recorded statement from the hospital, Trump said: "Don't let it dominate you. Don't be afraid of it." Upon his return to the White House, the President made a show of walking up the curving steps to the Truman Balcony. As he stood facing the South Lawn, the former president dramatically removed his mask, saluted Marine One, and then turned and, actively infected with the coronavirus and unmasked, he entered the Executive Residence.

Three weeks later, the University of Washington's Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation issued what would turn out to be an astonishingly accurate prediction. IHME estimated that there could be 500,000 US deaths by the end of February. Their analysis also suggested that 130,000 of these deaths could be prevented if the country adopted universal masking.

I've got time, going all the way back to the Vietnam War, to explain what I mean. The highly disciplined pro-Nixon/pro-Vietnam War Americans consistently plugged their ears and covered their eyes and ignored what was happening or else they'd have to admit that Nixon's war, which they wholeheartedly supported both President and his war, was a fiasco that killed around a million South Vietnamese. Jump forward 50 years to 2021.

Today's highly disciplined Trumptards wholeheartedly supported President Trump and his strategy to fight Covid-19, but if they paid attention they would have seen his war was a disorganized fiasco which will kill around a million Americans. (Nixon's war kept killing after Nixon resigned and Ford took charge of the Vietnam War; Trump's war keeps killing after Trump lost and Biden took charge.)

Countries as disorganized as Trump's America have huge Covid-19 death tolls, while countries that went about their war with Covid-19 in an organized fashion have small death tolls. But you can't know which countries are doing a poor job of fighting a war unless you count the number of dead. Trumptards don't want to know the number of dead Americans, just like pro-Nixon/pro-Vietnam War supporters didn't want to know the number of dead South Vietnamese.

Covid-19 deaths sorted by countries: www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
Trump's America is looking bad, but true Trumptards wouldn't want to know that.

FYI, Trump will be running again for President and his past mistakes, just for two examples, his Covid-19 War and his tax returns, will still be worth discussing with the people who would vote for him a third time. But I've noticed that those people won't discuss, other than to say those are not important.

Nope. Not important.

I already told you before the fixed election results came in that it would be a pleasure to vote for him a 3rd time. Now that your second fake impeachment failed chances are looking good.

Biden is going to be a 1 term president. He's going to fail to deliver on the impossible amount of promises he made, and the ones he's choosing to make are only serving to embolden the opposition.

2022 is already shaping up to be a Democratic Party bloodbath, and we're just a litle more than a month into it.



You should probably start worrying about fixing your party like I've been telling you for over 4 years now instead of doing nothing but talking about Trump and Russian phantoms.

California’s coronavirus strain looks increasingly dangerous: ‘The devil is already here’

The Los Angeles Times reports:

A coronavirus variant that emerged in mid-2020 and surged to become the dominant strain in California not only spreads more readily than its predecessors, but also evades antibodies generated by COVID-19 vaccines or prior infection and is associated with severe illness and death, researchers said.

In a study that helps explain the state’s dramatic surge in COVID-19 cases and deaths — and portends further trouble ahead — scientists at UC San Francisco said the cluster of mutations that characterizes the homegrown strain should mark it as a “variant of concern” on par with those from the United Kingdom, South Africa and Brazil.

“The devil is already here,” said Dr. Charles Chiu, who led the UCSF team of geneticists, epidemiologists, statisticians and other scientists in a wide-ranging analysis of the new variant, which they call B.1.427/B.1.429. “I wish it were different. But the science is the science.”

Californians, along with the rest of the country, have been bracing for the rise of a more transmissible coronavirus variant from the U.K. known as B.1.1.7. But they should know that a rival strain that is probably just as worrisome has already settled in, and will probably account for 90% of the state’s infections by the end of next month, said Chiu, an infectious diseases researcher and physician.

The U.K. and California variants are each armed with enhanced capabilities, and the likelihood that they could circulate in the same population raises the specter of a return to spiking infections and deaths, Chiu said. It also opens the door to a “nightmare scenario”: That the two viruses will meet in a single person, swap their mutations, and create an even more dangerous strain of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

The new evidence that the California variant could make people sicker, and vaccines less effective, should spur more intensive efforts to drive down infections, Chiu said. Those should include both public health measures, such as masking and limits on public activities, and a campaign of rapid vaccinations, he added.

Dr. Peter Hotez's battle against the 'anti-science confederacy' is a lifetime in the making

Updated: Feb. 27, 2021 8:03 a.m.

The antivaccine movement taught vaccine researcher Peter Hotez not to ignore conspiracy theories, no matter how scientifically unfounded. But in late spring of 2020, the virulence of the made-up stories he began hearing about COVID-19 astounded him.

One hoax held that Bill Gates had created the new coronavirus to force all Americans to be vaccinated with eensy devices that would create a sci-fi global-surveillance network. Another said that the launch of a 5G network in Wuhan, China, had spawned the virus. Some people claimed, falsely, that Gates, Hotez and Dr. Anthony Fauci stood to get rich off patents related to the COVID vaccine.

Hotez watched as the anti-vaxx movement — with its hippie roots in liberal distrust of chemicals and Big Pharma — connected with groups on the far right. “Vaccine choice” became an issue at protests that opposed mask requirements and business shutdowns. He was particularly alarmed that in Michigan, in late April and early May, supporters of President Donald Trump, wearing camouflage and carrying guns, protested on the steps of the state’s capitol.

Worse, some of the disinformation was coming from the White House: that COVID-19 was no more dangerous than a seasonal flu; that masks weren’t necessary; that the U.S. could have a safe vaccine by October. Hotez worried that the White House might wreck the public faith in vaccines with its impossible promises. He couldn’t imagine why a president wouldn’t at least acknowledge the hundreds of thousands who’d died.

But should he say anything about that? The pandemic had made Hotez a constant presence in the media, particularly on cable-TV news shows. He has a talent for conveying science to regular people, and as a top vaccine scientist with experience with coronaviruses, his credentials are impeccable. “He’s got tremendous credibility,” says investigative journalist Brian Rice, “because he’s done a huge amount to draw attention to potentially vaccine-preventable diseases that are less of an issue in the highly developed countries of North America and Europe: diseases that are often less likely to be profitable to the drug industry but nevertheless kill a lot of people.”

On TV, his appearance is a bonus: Forever rumpled and bow-tied, he looks like a scientist from central casting. But unlike a stereotypical scientist, his emotions are on surprising display. When a grim subject transforms his usual smiley warmth into anger or dismay, the effect is potent. He doesn’t come across as a normal talking head, auto-furious about the topic du jour. He looks like a teddy bear forced into battle.

Now, Hotez was wondering just how much battle he should take on, how frankly he should speak. He worried that he’d alienate Fox viewers, leaving them with one less source of credible scientific information. He worried, too, that scientists who criticized the Trump administration might be targeted — maybe just on social media but maybe in the real world as well.

He asked his wife, Ann, what he should do. Speak out, she said. “You don’t want to wake up in a year and see the body count and know that you didn’t do all you could to prevent it.”

Trump got vaccinated in secret in January. Here's why this matters:

Dr. Peter Hotez says that if former President Donald Trump and former first lady Melania Trump had decided to reveal to the public that they received the Covid-19 vaccine it would have helped "melt away" a lot of vaccine hesitancy.

Trump is well tuned to the mental aberrations of Trumptards. For the anti-vaxxers he made his vaccination a top secret but he also kept the benefits of being vaccinated for himself. Likewise, by paying bribes, Trump kept his adultries a top secret and loudly denied paying the bribes and even the fact of the adultries, which Trumptards are most comfortable not knowing. Same thing with cheating on his taxes. He kept his tax returns a top secret, but he did cheat and Trumptards don't want to know about it. Trumptards have strange mental aberrations when they think about Trump. But then again, Trumptards have mental aberrations about many things and it gets them constantly into trouble and keeps them on the lower rungs of the economic ladder.

The Trump administration quietly took around $10 billion from a fund meant to help hospitals and health care providers affected by Covid-19 and used the money to bankroll Operation Warp Speed contracts, four former Trump administration officials told STAT.

The Department of Health and Human Services appears to have used a financial maneuver that allowed officials to spend the money without telling Congress, and the agency got permission from its top lawyer to do so.

Trumptards wouldn't care if Trump stole 0.5% of the $10 billion and placed the $50 million in his own bank account because they are Trumptards and can't think straight. For all we know, he did because his top lawyer gave permission.

Trump did spend $10 billion unauthorized by Congress. 6ix, Trump could skim his usual 0.5% fee for arranging a deal. Since his taxes are top secret from his time as President, you won't know what he did with his fee. Maybe to charity? As the article said: "GOP aides for both the House and Senate Appropriations Committees did not return requests for comment." In four years we still won't know what happened to all that $10 billion, but Trump knows now.

None. By the way, Congress hasn't issued a declaration of war since 1942. But Congress continues to shape U.S. military policy through appropriations and oversight. Unlike any previous president, Democrat or Republican, Trump ran away with $10 billion outside of Congressional appropriations and to do that he had to sneakily evade Congressional oversight.

Unmasked: When Identity Politics Turns Deadly

Will Republican politicians kill some Texans to own the libs?

Relieving yourself in public is illegal in every state. I assume that few readers are surprised to hear this; I also assume that many readers wonder why I feel the need to bring up this distasteful subject. But bear with me: There’s a moral here, and it’s one that has disturbing implications for our nation’s future.

Although we take these restrictions for granted, they can sometimes be inconvenient, as anyone out and about after having had too many cups of coffee can attest. But the inconvenience is trivial, and the case for such rules is compelling, both in terms of protecting public health and as a way to avoid causing public offense. And as far as I know there aren’t angry political activists, let alone armed protesters, demanding the right to do their business wherever they want.

Which brings me to my actual subject: face mask requirements in a pandemic.

Wearing a mask in public, like holding it in for a few minutes, is slightly inconvenient, but hardly a major burden. And the case for imposing that mild burden in a pandemic is overwhelming. The coronavirus variants that cause Covid-19 are spread largely by airborne droplets, and wearing masks drastically reduces the variants’ spread.

So not wearing a mask is an act of reckless endangerment, not so much of yourself — although masks appear to provide some protection to the wearer — as of other people. Covering our faces while the pandemic lasts would appear to be simple good citizenship, not to mention an act of basic human decency.

Yet Texas and Mississippi have just ended their statewide mask requirements. Refusing to wear a mask has become a badge of political identity, a barefaced declaration that you reject liberal values like not peeing in public with everyone watching or moving your bowels in the grocery store aisle next to canned vegetables. Cleanup Trumptard spill on Aisle 7!

I don’t know how many people will die unnecessarily because the governor of Texas has decided that ignoring the science and ending the mask requirement is a good way to own the libs. But the number won’t be zero.

Texas Gov. Abbott's deadly pattern of failed leadership

Even in a state that celebrates limited government, most Texans can agree to this much: Gov. Greg Abbott’s top duty is to protect Texans’ lives, and at the very least, do nothing to put them in harm’s way. He has woefully failed.

The governor blindsided the medical community, business leaders and millions of Texans in his decision to drop all state restrictions on Wednesday that had been aimed at slowing the spread of the deadly novel coronavirus. While the desire to allow struggling businesses to open fully is understandable on some level, there can be only one motivation for dropping the simple, commonsense requirement that we all wear face masks: the governor is putting politics over people’s lives.

Such recklessness in the service of political expediency has become a pattern for Abbott. His cynical calculations, and the deaths they cause, will define his legacy.

In his latest move, Abbott may be hoping to distract Texans from his equally failed leadership regarding the catastrophic collapse of the state power grid during last month’s deadly winter freeze.

Voters must not allow the diversionary tactic to work. Abbott’s failures related to the power crisis cost lives — dozens and counting — and so will this week’s decision to toss out the only meager tools local leaders had to require Texans to protect each other from a virus that has already killed more than 500,000 Americans and roughly 44,000 Texans. There’s no doubt that some, perhaps many, lives would have been spared had Abbott simply waited a month or two before easing restrictions.

Did Abbott even ask any medical experts to model how many deaths could result? If so, did he deem the losses justified if they would score him temporary political points with Republican voters who have come to equate cloth face coverings with tyranny?

The calculation is beyond chilling. At his press conference in Lubbock last week, Abbott crowed about the state’s reopening like he were announcing a new corporate relocation. A small friendly crowd even cheered him on. All the while, he was completely aware of the facts and the science even as he turned his back on them. Deaths and cases are still increasing in Texas. All five worrying new variants are present in Houston, including one against which the vaccines have proven much less effective. Texas ranks near the bottom in the nation for per-capita vaccinations.

Abbott’s pandemic announcement — modeled after Florida’s months’ long foolishness and mirrored this week by Mississippi — was just the latest in a cynical pattern . . .

Every living former president has urged Americans to get vaccinated in a new ad series — apart from Trump, who's demanding credit for the vaccine.

-while-trump-demands-credit-2021-3


China and Russia had the vaccine before America, but Trump said "I hope everyone remembers when they're getting the COVID-19 (often referred to as the China Virus) vaccine, that if I wasn't president, you wouldn't be getting that beautiful 'shot' for 5 years, at best, and probably wouldn't be getting it at all. I hope everyone remembers!" Remember, if Trump wasn't President, China and Russia would not have a vaccine for 5 years. Sure, fatso! You did it!

AP FACT CHECK: Trump wrongly takes full credit for vaccine

President Donald Trump is wrongly taking full credit for Pfizer's announcement that its COVID-19 vaccine was robustly successful

TRUMP: “As a result of Operation Warp Speed, Pfizer announced on Monday that its China virus vaccine was more than 90% effective. ...Pfizer said it wasn’t part of Warp Speed, but that turned out to be an unfortunate misrepresentation.”

THE FACTS: Not so much. Pfizer notably did not accept government money to develop, test or expand manufacturing capacity under Trump’s Operation Warp Speed initiative to quickly find a vaccine and treatments for the disease sweeping the country.
