He will come up with a gaffe that this is all staged or something. ANYTHING to actually acknowledge truth and reality.

State of the pandemic thread by Andy Slavitt. Links to his In the Bubble podcast episode on staying safe for the holidays. https://threader.app/thread/1339760233569128449

And a thoughtful thread about vaccine resistance. https://Twitter.com/gradydoctor/status/ ... 1455720448

And, what massive failure looks like:

Let me help submoron out here. "Fake News." There I saved him some time....... we all know he likes nothing better than conspiracy rather than reality, so we may as well help him out so he can go lead and cheer the troops against this phony pandemic, front and center, without mask or vaccine, becoming a hero for the Right........shiver me timbers!

An article from back in March on denial that hit the nail on the head. https://www.thecut.com/2020/03/american ... virus.html

It must be frustrating to be a ‘Cassandra’, having a sop box like that, and still stand by powerlessly as the orange shitgibbon fiddles plays golf while his country burns.

Apparently the Covid strain has mutated in the UK. Would this require a new vaccine?

The feds have finally posted their information dash board on the pandemic. It looks excellent and I suspect I will switch to it as my primary source of US Covid information. https://healthdata.gov/blog/covid-19-op ... -your-data

I saw that last night! I wish we'd had that this whole entire time. Maybe it would have made a believer out of skeptics. Or it will now. Only my sense is that most folks are getting their news from media instead of digging in where possible.

Yeah, I do too. It beats the heck out of my state’s dashboard.
