Why should the proletariat have to follow the laws the ruling class are unwilling to live by? https://twitter.com/akoseff/status/1327308053151051776?s=19 Nathan Click, communications director for Newsom, defended the birthday celebration because it took place outdoors at a restaurant, which must fo...

There *are* fans at CFB games so I don't see a distinction.

And that's ignoring the gathering of the players/coaches/staff/support themselves.

Every State has the option to do this. There is no Federal law requiring Winner Take All. Right. I just had this conversation with someone the other day. If PA decided to split it's electoral votes, do you think it would get more or less campaign time from candidates? It would lose it's "swing stat...

Is that a problem though? Couldn't you flip that and point out all that farmland is also half the population? More along the lines of what makes sense to dedicate energy to. Something that is approximately 5-8x the area or focus on the huge population centers and be happy with your base that you pu...

They aren’t coming back down quite yet. Looks like they are starting to plateau.

You can save/bookmark this post.

My guess is we start plateauing around 11/27 +/- 2 days.

But yes I agree this isn’t from that yet. These numbers aren’t even from 11-10. States report numbers from weeks ago to that day.

Those were the numbers on 11/10 which is 3 days after the celebrations. What's the percentage that show symptoms in 3 days? That would be more accurate. More than half would not be showing symptoms yet. Halloween was 10 days before these numbers. I'm willing to bet it's a mix with most of the cases...

I know we love sarcasm and I told you so's, but on the serious side we're four days out from celebrations in the streets, which as has been pointed out is too early to expect a spike. Even 8 days post election day is the early part of the window. Exactly. There will probably be a surge in cases we ...

That's not a lot of treatments for the winter...
It took 9 months to have 685k hospitalizations. So if you can target the right people you will substantially reduce hospitalizations.

How fast can they produce this antibody treatment?
A million by EOY and then substantially more at the start of the new year. That is just Eli Lilly. That doesn't include Regeneron's or GSK's antibody treatments.

Per CDC there have been a total of around 685k hospitalizations due to covid so far. These antibody treatments are showing a 70% or more decline in hospitalizations. They know who the high risk people are that need to get these drugs.

Allegheny Co. is at a 15.7% positive rate today after three days of being around 14%. Today was also the worst day of the pandemic with 366 new cases, 44 hospitalizations, and 5 deaths.

But then you'd have a large chunk of the left refusing to get it. Have to think of something both sides would like to have injected in them.

I think all vaccines should be like this. I only think you should get exemptions to go to school and etc. is if you have a legitimate allergy to certain shots. No religious exemptions.
