yeah it looks like the drops in cases and deaths were a xmas mirage. Same thing happened over T-day. Back to the grisly.

We're up to 0.78% of the population vaccinated. After 16 days. Pathetic.

Get ready. Trump has returned to DC and has left his New Year's gala attendees, who paid tens of thousands of dollars to party with Trump, with his Orange presence. Trump has also sent bombers to the gulf area to tease Iran. Expect to so some military action in Iran in another attempt to steal the election by declaring he must remain as war-president because ... because he doesn't want to go to jail and killing Iranians is not something he cares about.

That's Crazy Mama stuff. By the time the states wind their way up to the 50th %, the first 10% who got nailed with vaxx will have petered out their immunity down to imperceptibility (null/void). The medical profession will be chasing its tail on this, plugging gills into fish, indefinitely.

Thanksgiving and Xmas gave little blips that are essentially meaningless. The big picture as far as what is happening at this time and what will happen in the near future is:

1) The rate of acceleration in new cases peaked on or about Nov 17.

2) Percentage increases in new cases have been on a steady decline since then (with meaningless blips at T-Day and Xmas).

3) The increase in new cases declined all the way to zero on or around Xmas Day.

4) From here new cases will be dropping.

5) Deaths will also be dropping shortly. We may have already reached a peak on 7-day deaths. At any rate, weekly deaths will start to drop within a few weeks, maximum.

The vaccination effort has indeed been pathetic. It appears that we may be in a race between the vaccine rollout and the spread of the more readily transmissible UK strain. Which of these "wins" will have a HUGE impact on the overall picture come March or so. But neither of these will have any significant impact on the above 5 facts.

A truly disgusting and unprofessional family

F***ing brilliant! Jordan is getting close to being able to give Gomehrt a run for his money in the “Biggest Dumba** in Congress” competition.

In that case there can only be one answer. The founding fathers were nothing but Hillary loving deep state never Trumpers. Only absolute adherence to and belief in the trumpian anti-lockdown approach is considered patriotic. The will and opinion of most Americans is therefore irrelevant.

Gym Jordan is exactly the type of totally failed and chaotic personally the basket of deplorables love.

Trump’s America won’t go away overnight which means the virus will win out until at least the summer. Trumpers love death.

It ebbs and flows and is predictable. We will shoot up again because of Christmas/New Years gatherings. We will hit our peak in 2-3 weeks, then start to drop down significantly as more and more folks get vaccinated.

I read somewhere that appointed senators like Loeffler have a poor record of being elected when they actually have to win elections.

They have been 10-3 since 2001. McSally, Strange (primary), and Carnahan lost. Ten others chose not to seek reelection.

https://www.senate.gov/senators/AppointedSenators.htm

The 10-3 record is not relevant unless you account for how many of those races were competitive. An appointed senator in a deep blue or deep red state is almost certainly going to win. So a 10-3 record is expected.

The Georgia races are very competitive. Republicans have a decided advantage. It's probably 2% to 3% based on November's total vote tallies.

But Democrats do seem more mobilized and enthusiastic here. We just don't know how many Republicans will stay home because they are demoralized. I think that factor will make all the difference.

looking over the links I saved over the year...this is a good one. Mid March 2020. Many experts were predicting an entire year of quarantine and lockdowns and social distancing. Most people thought it would be just a few weeks.

Good call, these experts.

Experts thought we would do what was necessary to defeat the virus. We didn't.

Instead, Americans decided to take the route of death and suffering. It was a very bad choice.

The nations who chose to embrace reality are flourishing while we continue to die.

Which nations are "flourishing?" New Zealand maybe? Good for them.

This has been a global crisis. Europe just shut down all over again because people over there care even less than they do here in the US, which seems to be flourishing pretty well (depending on how you measure that) despite the fact that a bunch of people are dying.

This is an interesting point that I have thought about quite a bit myself. North Dakota (and some other states) saw huge increases this fall in the number of cases, followed by huge increases in the number of deaths. But for the past few weeks ND has seen a big decline in cases (and deaths, to an extent). What might be the cause? The introduction of a mask mandate? A change in people's behavior? Fewer people getting tested?

I'm not advocating for any particular viewpoint; just think it's worth discussing.

here's a graph on case counts...pretty clear the US and UK fouled their nests.
