Drug overdose deaths among adolescents surged during the Covid-19 pandemic, driven overwhelmingly by illicit fentanyl, according to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Monthly drug overdose deaths nearly tripled among adolescents ages 10 to 19 during the first two years of the pandemic. Deaths rose from 31 in July 2019 to a peak of 87 in May 2021 and then fell to 51 in December 2021.

Ergo, WC Fields, a suckered in born every second. It's way past time people stop listening and stop posting media crap, regardless of who, where, when and why.

57 nuke plants huh, oh boy, as you can see from that chart that's a drop in the bucket compared to the thousands of coal and gas plants, etc.
Coal only exists cause it is cheaper that is it... nukes are clean energy
the blue flame gas is on the way out too...that will take forever. Electric only at the end.

the US uses about 5% of global coal consumption(approx 430 million tons), all green energy dreams are meaningless.
it takes forever to change...you think too simple. Like a caveman
freedom tower in nyc....all electric

I'm retired , dont have a 401K anymore - i rolled it over into a IRA.. The point about coal use isn't that a transition wont eventually happen - of course it will, we dont ride around on horses anymore, the point is that we are being asked to pay far more for energy and change our lifestyle under the pretext that if we do it will make a difference. Doing anything and everything will make zero difference, NONE, it's a money and power grab, nothing more.

I posted this in the main forum yesterday - just think, china changed course on covid because of the world cup? The people saw that life was normal in the rest of the world and said " hey, WTF are we doing", and it all changed.
New reports put the number of daily infections in china as high as 37 million, that's a lot.

In a stunning admission, according to estimates from the government’s top health authority, nearly 37 million people in China may have been infected with Covid-19 on a single day this week.
This is a shockingly stark divergence from the extremely low 'official' case count (which reported just 62,592 symptomatic) and utterly dwarfs the previous global daily record of about 4 million, set in January 2022, as Omicron spread...
The new data was provided in a closed-door meeting by Sun Yang, a deputy director of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, on Wednesday.
According to two people familiar with the matter, The FT reports that Chinese officials estimate about 250mn people or 18 per cent of the population were infected with Covid-19 in the first 20 days of December as Beijing abruptly abandons its Zero-COVID strategy that for almost three years has crushed economic growth (and citizens' freedoms).
As @MrSeanHaines noted on Twitter, it's amazing the 180 Chinese state media have done on their Covid messaging of late.
Bloomberg notes that it is unclear how the Chinese health regulator came up with its estimate, as the country shut down its once ubiquitous network of PCR testing booths earlier this month. Precise infection rates have been difficult to establish in other countries during the pandemic, as hard-to-get laboratory tests were supplanted by home testing with results that weren’t centrally collected.
Sun said the rate of Covid’s spread in the country was still rising and estimated that more than half of the population in Beijing and Sichuan were already infected, the people briefed on the meeting said.
And, of course, 99.9% of those people will be just fine.
This is extremely notable obviously as while China is experiencing its first real wave of infection, it is massive and will likely mean almost the entire nation will have natural immunity in two to three months... which will allow the economy to restart fully.
Chen Qin, chief economist at data consultancy MetroDataTech, forecasts China’s current wave will peak between mid-December and late January in most cities, based on an analysis of online keyword searches.

In Putins latest comments he announced an increase in the army to 1.5 million men, BUT the big news was he announced that contract forces - mostly the wagner group would be increased from 200K to 600K.
