There's places that will send a nurse or whatever to your home to get a rapid test done, really helpful for testing to go back to school
This was the place, I assume most cities have this or something similar.

One of my best friends' daughter-in-law died recently- she was pregnant and got covid, so they did a C-section and got the baby out, but then she got a staph infection from the surgery which killed her.

Not disputing that Sturgis was a super spreading event. Just, that's not a recent map of Covid hot spots.

I'm guessing you knew that, so am wondering what was your purpose?

A pregnant woman has a ten times higher change of ending up in an ICU with covid. If they didn't feed antibiotics to livestock by the tons because of greed, she probably wouldn't have died from the staph infection.

So, any of those "friends and family" wanna step up to the plate and take responsibility for their words and deeds? Crickets from the moral failures.

I must say, I'm impressed with the republicans, under Donald's leadership, they are doing as well as his businesses. Someone would have to be pathologically insane to vote for these treasonous fuckers! Not to worry Baldrick, the first serious subpoenas have just been issued and Donald has a large pile of documents to review before they are given to the house select committee and they will get them all.
Donald is already flailing and beginning to freak out, the heat will grow much hotter soon and Donald will freak out with the rising temperature. He's habitually throwing shit against the wall and hoping something sticks, but the walls are closing in and the shit will end up on his face. Meanwhile he needs iron control over the GOP and will eventually have them storm the committee room at the capitol, or the courthouse where he is will be tried. Congress people or senators who don't show up will be finished with Donald's base, they weren't loyal enough to take a bullet for him!
Meanwhile the republicans in the senate are looking to destroy the filibuster over the debt ceiling, it's one issue that might just fuck them, a government shutdown and not paying debts already incurred. I can't wait for their 2022 slate of candidates, they will clean out the nuthouses of America. But I expect a close election, but not as close as 2020, this shit since the election must be having an impact on some folks, mostly right leaning independents, 1/6 will come with a price for them.

The wife spends most of her time online, but she does keep the tv on for sound. She just came in to tell me two of the ladies on the view tested positive and had to leave the stage on live tv. This happened minutes before the vp was coming on the show. So they now have two hosts for the interview.

I see the American cold civil war casualty rate is between a thousand and two thousand a day, with the confederates taking a pounding in the daily battles, along with some of the innocent. Cold civil war 2 has probably taken as many victims as civil war 1, the cause is the same, human rights for brown folks, the struggle of patriots against those who would destroy the country and themselves, to prevent liberal democracy from flourishing in America. Liberal democracy means equal rights and social participation of all people under the protection of the government and courts. The people who are waging this war against minorities, their country and the constitution are fascists, motivated by racism and nothing else, that is the correct label to apply to them as a group.
Many of them are like suicide bombers now, willing to die while spreading a deadly disease to others, they are delusional and disconnected further from reality. Existing increasingly inside their own media pseudo cultural bubble and safe space, that supplies them with "alternate facts", manipulative opinion and reifies the disinformation that is killing them in large numbers. This bubble includes themselves, as the internet allows them to form tribes over a wide geographic area to give each other social and emotional support, as well as reinforcing disinformation and group discipline among themselves. If they got vaccinated, they would in most cases be ejected from the tribe and lose many of their pseudo friends in the process, the same goes for masks. In some places where racism is endemic among the white people in America, the vaccination rate is low and there is open public hostility to those who wear masks. Doctors, nurses and public health officials have been attacked, received many death threats and vaccination sites are attacked in these places too. In these places the stakes are higher, people will lose friends and family in the real world and experience the pain of social rejection acutely.
In Canada we don't have the political component to the pandemic response they have in America. In Canada, it is primarily a problem with young people, those between 18 and 39, the immortals, who assume they are strong enough to survive covid and the large scale maiming that results. They feed on the American disinformation system and they too have formed tribes online for social, emotional support and to reify disinformation among themselves. They too exist in a pseudo cultural information bubble, eschewing accurate and truthful information and attributing conditions and causes to a vast global conspiracy(s). We should not conflate them with the American anti vaxxer crowd, the causes and conditions are different here, the victims are young, so compassion shouldn't be too hard a lift.

"Sure. But wait until the 5G networks are set up. You will change into a communist under Chinese control. Democrats will notice no difference."
Right on the head of the nail, that's why they were the "Greatest Generation" and the way they rallied and sacrificed deservedly so.ccguns
Seems like the terms "national duty" or "for the greater good" no longer exist today, terrified to contemplate an even greater challenge requiring an "all for one and one for all" approach to overcome it would result in perish the thought.ccguns

Nearly 2 years into the pandemic, anti-vaxxers finally want people to stay home—from the hospital
According to NBC News, anti-vaxx groups, including those on Facebook, are encouraging members not to go to the emergency room. Their reason? Conspiracy theories that claim doctors are preventing them from receiving a cure, or that they are being killed on purpose.
The deadly advice follows multiple reports of COVID-19 deniers dying in hospitals after refusing to get or advocating against the COVID-19 vaccine. While many of them regretted doing so, some stayed persistent and despite being on their deathbed still advocated against being vaccinated. Instead of receiving a free jab, these people would rather face death or harm themselves by taking unauthorized treatments. As one doctor told NBC News, patients in the hospital “just keep denying until they’re dying.”
Facebook groups are not only encouraging violence against health care professionals but pushing for individuals not to go to the hospital. According to NBC News, many anti-vaxxers are using the encrypted messaging app Telegram and offering instructions on how to get family members released from the hospital. Viral videos have even been shared in which some allegedly successfully moved family members from hospitals to hospice care.
This Twitter thread sums up the entire phenomenon pretty well:
Who knows when anti-vaxxers will realize they are killing off their own. But until then, we can only hope the stories of all the famous anti-vaxxers dying and regretting their decisions to follow conspiracy theories make a difference.

Remember the anthrax attack after 9/11? Who was the prime suspect, the one they figured who had a screw loose? Who was really running the pandemic response? Who was behind HCQ after the evidence clearly showed it was of no benefit? I can't wait for his turn on the hot seat, it was the Bush administration that busted him for anthrax too, no conviction though.

Putin already owns most of them and they are in effect a 5th column, he just needs to use his mouth piece, Trump, or some other psycho republican politician, there are many to choose from.
Is it any surprise? This is just a continuation of the civil war, with 100 years of KKK terrorism and institutional racism providing the buffer. Obama really started this by simply becoming POTUS and causing racist America to lose it's mind, Trump purified the republican party and drove out all the decent people with brains, leaving the dross that is their base and they are base in deed, dumb too.
