OUCH! Here Comes The Next Pandemic Wave For Spring 2021 In The USA

PoliTalker said:
More dying. More death. More loss. More heartbreak.

More parents and grandparents lost.

More Americans with preexisting conditions being lost.

In case you have never checked it out, I have been keeping track of the Coronavirus Pandemic progress in the USA in a daily thread called

Corona Virus Peak Watch Thread

I had no idea when I began that thread almost a year ago how long it would take until we reached the peak.

I also had no idea that when we reached that peak, there might be more than one peak.

Well, we reached a peak at the end of January 2021.

Hooray!

But that wasn't the end of the virus.

It merely meant that we finally stopped adding more new cases than were resolved.

The number of Active Cases peaked and began to fall for the first time. And that felt good.

***

But our progress just halted.

Yesterday, for the first time since the end of January, we began to see the numbers start to rise again.

Yesterday showed more Active Cases than the previous day.

Gov DeSantis of Florida deserves much of the credit for killing our progress.

He foolishly dropped all restrictions in Florida.

And now Florida is recording more New Cases per day than California, even though California has nearly twice as many people.

Spring Break has not been just college kids. Many adults have gone there to get away from the stress of fighting the virus. That has created an epicenter.

Spring Break has become Florida Spring Super-Spreader.

We have not learned our lesson. More pain, more dying, more heartache, more loss are all on the way.

We have got to do better. We have got to be more responsible. We must stay the course until the job is done.

Just remember, Poli,
in words spoken by both you and the exiled orangutan,
"There are good people on both sides."

You might want to consider having your ashes spread; if you're buried, this might be carved on your tombstone.

So Biden is going to kill more

The CDC does not have the science to back up continued wearing of a mask once vaccinated or with antibodies. There are several studies showing that the vaccines do indeed show preventing spread.


Yes, St. Fauci lied three times about masks. He is not to be trusted.

I am not my brothers keeper. I am not going to wear a mask to convince an unvaccinated or person without antibodies to wear one.


No, I disagree, I don't have to dumb myself down. Not my job.

No, you don't.

Mission Accomplished on that score long ago.

You are already at rock bottom.

There is no more down left for you to go.
 
Thank the fates for Tennessee crackers willing to lend their perspective to our discussions.
"Good people," I'm told---right, PoliTalker?
 
Hello Darth,

I know, right lol?

Where is the OP on that? What good is it going to do getting stubborn Trump supporters to obey Fauci’s every dictate if we are, first, going to allow tens of thousands of economic immigrants to flood across our southern border; then second, force them into cages, boxes [whatever they call them now] that effectively become mass incubators for the dreaded CCP virus.

What the hell kind of sense does that make? Seems to me, if the Biden administration was really serious about controlling the CCP virus, they would *shut the border down*.

Shut the border down? What a big surprise that your idea to help with the pandemic is some callous insensitive thing you wanted long before there ever was a pandemic. I'm surprised Trump didn't deliver for you despite having majorities in both houses of Congress for the first 2 years. Must be pretty disappointing.

And no, I don't think turning our backs on needy people reaching out to us for their last desperate chance at being productive members of society is representative of this great and diverse nation.

Will you welcome them into your home? Even temporarily? If not, why not? Who should?

Functional nations have secure borders.

National leaders who aren’t derelict in their duties, realize that ‘governing 101’ entails providing for secure borders in order to protect their citizens.

One Hispanic majority border town swung 55% towards Trump from 2016 to 2020. Democrats will eventually lose the Hispanic vote and/or lose enough of it that it that it cripples them.

If Republicans get their way, it will eventually destroy the USA. Republicans, the party of no, the party of rumors, selfishness and xenophobia, have almost completely eroded confidence in our own government and most institutions. When the people no longer have confidence in government or institutions, society is living on borrowed time.

America is a diverse nation. If the rich white men with the most power refuse to recognize that, they will run the country into the ground. Most of the Senate is controlled by a minority of rural white Americans stuck on old short-sided values and disinformation. Most of the people in the nation live in diverse urban metro areas. It is an imbalance that is not sustainable. We need a government which is representative of the people of the country.

You can't ignore your way out of a pandemic. It takes coordinated action. It will have to be coordinated all across the world. Shutting our borders isn't going to rid the world of COVID.

Do to think that is a good argument? They go to relatives for temp shelters until they get jobs and paychecks. they pay taxes and start businesses at a greater rate than regular citizens do.

That would only be the job of patriotic Americans who care about their fellow Americans; or even just humanity in general.

Thanks. Apparently not my job either.
NOT patriotic.
DON’T care about fellow Americans.
DON’T care about humanity in general.

Besides I’m retired. Don’t need a job.
 
What righties really fear is Biden will solve the problem. He has the desire to. Trump did not care about the kids.

The rich powerful white men are named Bezos, Zuckerberg and etc. Democrats no longer represent the little man and working class Hispanics are fast figuring that out.
 
Brazil and India are starting to experience it. Brazil is getting slammed with over 3200 deaths today. Meanwhile, India had gotten its daily number down to an average of 100, which might as well be zero for that population. Now it is over 300 for the first time this year.

Care about kids? Gimme a break.

Biden won’t even stand up to the teachers unions and demand that all schools be open, everywhere.
