South Dakota and North Dakota hit new record 7 daily infection rolling average highs with 1458 and 1381 respectively...or
1 in 86 people in South Dakota were infected in just the past 7 days
1 in 78 people in North Dakota were infected in just the past 7 days
South Dakota's 53 deaths today would be equivalent to 1,166 deaths in NY in one day. Or over 10% higher than NY's record day. Or 760 deaths in Illinois.
it would be equivalent to 19,828 deaths in one day for the entire country. Let's hope that other states don't get as bad as it has gotten up there. The stupid freedom restricting governor's will stop selling gas

Stop putting out fake news, the real numbers of people infected are at least 3 times that, maybe 1 in 20-25, that's great, it really is.
I see washington Gov inslee is going to announce another near total lockdown, couldn't happen to a finer group of people. Now that the election is over I've switched to the virus's side, it sure is more fun, watching failed politicians flail about is a great spectacle.

haha!!!! Reports are there were under 10,000 Maga protesters out there today. Many of those were counter-protesters as well. Nice work. That photo is from the Obama inauguration. Nice try.Not much social distancing in DC today huh?

And spread it to the next one. Keep doing that and none will be open. Don't forget while they are closed, the staff isn't getting paid.

The few that have shut temporarally around here are doing it on their own , most bars dont have tons of employees, if a couple get covid closing for a couple weeks until they get well is OK.

August 15 prediction above
41 days till Christmas. Total just over 251,000 currently
would need a daily death avg of about 1,188 deaths per day to get to 300,000 on xmas
currently averaging 1,142 by increasing
Billy looks to be a shoe in for the Amateur Epidemiologist of the year for the Gambling chit chats.
Looks like he'll have undershot a bit, but that is prob just his cheery positive spin he puts on things, so as not to cause a panic.
We'll prob hit his 325K prediction closer to Christmas
Star Tribune from your town had 16 pages of obits yesterday
The paper obviously used 4x the normal FONT SIZE in reporting the obituaries to make things look worse than it really is.

So, with the decline in newpapers most obits are now placed in sunday papers alone, since very few people read daily(during the week) issues.
More good news with this second vaccine huh? Added to the Pfizer one we should have enough supplies to vaccinate everyone who wants one well before april, perhaps most by the end of Feb.

Swedes just tapped out and went all nazi. guess they got Epidemiologist Landered
scared of their huge increases in hospitalizations I guess, they are threatening people with jail now.
sucks to see these experiments ended so soon, hopefully they have some Patriots that will rebel to save their freedom
Sweden’s cases per capita are currently 10 times higher than Finland and four times higher than Norway. Last week, the rate at which people were being admitted into hospital was growing faster in Sweden than any other European country. And after several months of relatively low numbers of deaths, Sweden reported more than 100 in three days last week.
Prime Minister Stefan Löfven told his citizens: “It’s going to get worse. Do your duty and take responsibility to stop the spread of infection.
“There should not be social situations with more than eight people even if they are not formally affected by the law. This is the new norm for the whole society, for all of Sweden. Don’t go to the gym. Don’t go to the library. Don’t have dinners. Don’t have parties. Cancel.”
Mr Lofven struck a solemn tone on Monday, twice telling Swedes: “This is a testing time. It is about your and my choices every day, every hour, every moment that will determine how we manage this. So make the right choice for yourself, for society, and for Sweden.”
Sweden has unveiled tougher restrictions to fight coronavirus as Europe’s outlier on Covid-19 is forced to step up measures to fight the virus as it faces surging numbers of cases and deaths. Warning that the situation was “going to get worse”, Prime Minister Stefan Lofven said on Monday the limit on public gatherings in Sweden would be cut from 50 people to eight.
new restrictions will no longer be a recommendation but enshrined in law as part of Sweden’s Public Order Act, which means there will be harsh penalties. Lawbreakers could face up to six months in prison or fines.

You left this part out...
The new limit applies only to public gatherings such as sporting and cultural events, as the government cannot ban private gatherings in homes. Restaurants will stay open, with a maximum of eight diners for each table, as will schools.
Last week the government announced that bars and restaurants would not be allowed to serve alcohol after 10pm from 20 November until the end of February.
By the way, it appears cases have peaked in the dakotas and may actually be declining, stay tuned.

The more vaccines that come out in weeks and months to come that are better than 70% efficacy, the more we know the level of bullshit we've be fed by the deepstate. Globalism is being turned away by these vaccines.

Walmart had a clearance cart with giant bottles of hand sanitizer for 50 cents, a smaller bottle for a qtr, looked like no one was interested.

a few months later, and cases never did drop in half as we hoped
but they gloomily quadrupled.
up to 26k, Where will the top be? can the midwest hit the spring total peak of 60k? Hopefully no more than 42k, then slowly down

Did you hear about that covid study with marine recruits? they had them wear double layers masks at all times, always social distanced, sanitized the bathrooms after each use, even ate prepackaged meals alone and the mess halls were sanitized immediately after.
The results were that they caught covid at a higher rate than others who did nothing at all. those mitigation measures simply dont work.

new study out put covid death rate far lower than thought.
Covid-19 may actually only kill one in 2,000 healthy people under the age of 70, according to research.
Dr John Ioannidis, from Stanford University, claims the infection-fatality rate (IFR) could be as low as 0.05 per cent in a review of antibody surveillance studies.
His estimate — published by the World Health Organization — is five times lower than his previous claim that the IFR for all age groups stood at 0.25 per cent. For comparison, seasonal flu kills around 0.1 per cent of everyone it infects.
In Dr Ioannidis' study published in the WHO's Bulletin, which claims to have been peer-reviewed, 82 estimates of the IFR from 61 studies carried out across the world were used.
Antibody prevalence in the samples ranged from as low as 0.1 per cent in the Bay Area, California, to 53.4 per cent in Barrio Padre Mugica, Argentina.
Dr Ioannidis took the data from each region and divided the number of Covid-19 deaths by the number of people estimated to be infected, to give a median infection fatality rate of 0.27 per cent.
He then says that, when people over 70 were removed from the figure, the median IFR falls to 0.05 per cent.

Genetic research done at Mount Sinai later determined that there had been six clusters, though everyone had followed rules about wearing masks, social distancing, pre-plating their food and the regular use of bleach wipes.
One of the study's authors said the research data highlighted the limitations of symptom screening and the assessment of risk factors particularly among a healthy, young population.
"Our data certainly demonstrate the occurrence of asymptomatic spread within this age group," said Cmdr. Andrew Letizia, a Navy doctor and researcher at the Naval Medical Research Center who co-led the study.
"Without a doubt that's one of the major takeaway findings," said Letizia. "Without observing vigorous public health measures and potentially augmenting that with additional testing strategies, you're never going to find these folks and this spread will continue to occur."

quite possibly our worst combined day for all states minus New York for the entire pandemic are here, or will be here in the next week.
recall when we would hit 2k deaths in the spring New York was accounting for 1k to 200+ of that through the month of May.
Now we have New York only contributing a few percent towards our total.

Went to the casino in iowa today, they now require masks, only 2/3s had it on or wore it properly, bar and restaurant still open, looks like they're surviving.
Couple months ago I linked you an article that laid out exactly what’s happening now
