If you say so. It must be a hard life being you. Always fighting a fight you can’t win and just crashing face first into on brick wall after another.
Don't be an idiot. You think you are a savant or karnac by pointing out what any thinking person knows is the end-goal here? Don't give up your day job putting caps on toothpaste just yet.
If you say so. I however am not arguing the stupid side. It doesn’t take a brainiac to recognize a global pandemic is a national emergency.
Anthony Fauci: ‘It’s Horrifying’ to See CPAC Audience Cheer for America Not Being More Vaccinated https://www.mediaite.com/tv/anthony...-cheer-for-america-not-being-more-vaccinated/
""This isn't the boogeyman. This isn't something we made up to get a rise out of people," he said. "There are 120 real human beings in the hospital right now struggling with this illness. ... And every one will tell you — this isn't fake." Yeah, we smart people who understand life, understood that it was not fake. That's why we got vaccinated. I am hopeful that they will become martyrs for the anti-vax cause. I mean, if you are going to die for a stupid belief, let them become enshrined in martydom for the other believers of said caus...Oh, wait, all the others just got sick and are dying as well. So much for the cause. Fukin' Arkansas.
'Surprising amount of deaths' will soon occur in these US regions from increased Covid-19 cases, expert says https://www.cnn.com/2021/07/12/health/us-coronavirus-monday/index.html As the Delta variant rapidly spreads, US hotspots have seen climbing cases -- and an expert warns a "surprising amount" of Covid-19 deaths could soon follow. The US is averaging about 19,455 new cases over the last seven days, a 47% increase from the week prior, according to data from Johns Hopkins University. And a third of those, CNN Medical Analyst Dr. Jonathan Reiner said, come from five hotspots: Florida, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri and Nevada. "In places like Missouri where ICUs are packed, you're going to see a surprising amount of death," Reiner said on Sunday. At Mercy Hospital in Springfield, Missouri, 91% of ICU patients are on ventilators and many are in their 20s, 30s and 40s, Chief Administrative Officer Erik Frederick told CNN Saturday. That is especially concerning, he said, because at the peak last year there were only 40 to 50% of ICU patients on ventilators. Typically, increases in Covid-19 death rates follow three to four weeks behind spikes in cases, Reiner said. It takes a week for patients to get sick enough to need hospitalization and then often another couple of weeks for the infection to become fatal. "We will start to see an increase in mortality in this country," Reiner said. What is particularly frustrating for many experts, Reiner said, is that the deaths are "completely avoidable" now that vaccines are available. But about one third of those 12 and older in the UShaven't received the vaccine yet, CDC data shows. "The vaccines we have work really well against this variant. It doesn't need to be this way," Reiner said. Experts weigh whether vaccinations should be mandated Much of the rising cases have been attributed to the now dominant Delta variant, which is believed to be more transmissible. And the variant has sparked discussions over local vaccination mandates. Across the US, 48% of the population is fully vaccinated, but in some states that number is much lower, according to CDC data. Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Wyoming and Mississippi all have around 35% or less of their populations fully vaccinated. Experts say vaccines are key to managing spread. With information changing rapidly, it is important to be smart about how vaccinations are mandated, Professor of Medicine George Washington University School of Medicine Dr. Gigi El-Bayoumi said.
