US COVID-19 cases rising again, doubling over three weeks

New COVID-19 cases per day in the U.S. have doubled over the past three weeks, driven by the fast-spreading delta variant, lagging vaccination rates and Fourth of July gatherings.

At least, for the most part, it's the anti-vaxers, Republicans that are coming down with the disease.

The hell of it is that they, of all people, don't get the news about how bad this stuff is. Their "news" providers censure themselves radically to filter out real news that might conflict with far right wing Trump doctrine. The people that need it most would not be caught dead watching or listening to "liberal" anti-Trump media. Therefore they miss out on real information beneficial to them.

Whooopie fucking do.....Does this mean that Joe Biden's economy is going to shut down? Wouldnt that just be great for the 2022 elections...

The rubes and their paranoia are going to be responsible if this thing keeps mutating and we can't control it again.

I guess they'll say it was God's will.

Madness. Group pathology.

Many are still just trump mind-Fkd. Quite a few people out there that have legitimate concerns or on immune system suppressants, had organ transplants, have allergies that have given them or blood relatives to them, bad reactions to other vaccines. I feel sorry for those folk and wish them the best of luck. The trump-Fkd and the willfully ignorant, mentally deficient, anti-vaxxer, moron crowd can use some thinning out for the good of the species as a whole, as Darwin might would say. I doubt if I will miss them, but I am beyond preaching to them and just don't care. I've got mine.

Been almost 2 years and that fucking little virus "Kung Flu" just doesnt want to fuck with my immune system. But for you progressive slaves, you make sure you all get into the corral and head on down to the vac sites and get that little prick. Because your masters demand you comply...

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see why covid cases are rising as the number of people who are vaccinated is rising.

Las Vegas and Reno are blue states.

When did the two largest cities in NV become states? By those standards, OR and WA are red states and only Portland and Seattle are blue--those cities are not states either, they just control the state.

Read the thread and maybe you will figure out why you didnt get the joke.

 

[Mikeoxenormous]

All in red anti-vax states.

Nevada is a blue state, slurper.

Nope. Las Vegas and Reno are blue states. The rest is bright red. Besides we know anti-vaxers from red states love to go to Vegas and Reno.

Las Vegas and Reno are blue states.

Here is a product of public education at it worst.

Las Vegas and Reno are cities in the state of Nevada.....

You must be the product of inbreeding. How did you not get the joke if you followed the thread?

Anti-vax states? Care to cite a link or are we just supposed to be dazzled by your opinions? I come from one of the Reddest states in America and I've never even met anyone who refuses vaccines. Of course, I'm speaking of actual vaccines that create immunity in those who receive it. As for the covid "vaccine", to each his own. When half or more of physicians and allied health professionals around the nation are waiting or even refusing the jab, I'd say the issue is hardly political, at least to the level you guys seem intent on making it.

Look on the bright side. If this virus is as deadly a scourge as the media keep chanting, maybe a lot of Republicans will die before they can vote again. If it ISN'T, well, your fear-mongering may be less effective. I love the media's attempts to cause panic among those who refuse to buy into the rhetoric of doom. "Delta Variant is much more contagious!" "Delta Variant may be more deadly"

So, this virus mutates and becomes more transmissible? That's because it's behaving like all other viruses. They can't yet lie about it being more deadly because it isn't. Most viruses become less lethal after more iterations. They want to find hosts, not kill them.

"They want to find hosts, not kill them."

You dont know what you are talking about (which isnt surprising)

Viruses don't think. They don't know they are killing someone. They mutate to get more efficient at infecting hosts as quickly as possible until they have no one left to infect. They will die out if they kill all their hosts but they have no way of knowing that. Most mutate to a less lethal form.

1. The American people are exhausted.

2. July 4th travel showed that many Americans are throwing caution to the wind.

3. And I assume that many Americans are sick and tired of the news with its optimistic news one day and then pessimistic news the next day followed by optimistic news that is then followed by ,,,

4. Here in the Los Angeles area, the infection rates and death rates were really low. We thought that we had reached herd immunity. Then POW! the Delta variant is pushing infection and death rates up again. And it's all blamed on the unvaccinated (such as I).

Same thing that happened last year at this exact time. It's a virus. It's seasonal.

How many people do you know who have had covid, btw?

Me and five family members, all survived and healthy. Ages 3-69.

I know or know of over 50. Early hot spot. Husband knows of one who passed away. A few hospitalized. Most others mild or asymptomatic.

ETA: so to me honestly this is really, honestly like a flu. People get it, most recover, some get very ill, some sadly do die. But yeah. A flu, probably a bad one. But certainly not Ebola or Bubonic Plague.

Dr Fauci's "gain of function" aka make the covid virus more lethal experiment is working great

The dreaded Delta mutation is less physically threatening thatn the original....That's how virus mutations work.

Be ready. Fall is not far away..and that means flu season. Lock down time again.

How many people that have been vaxxed have caught the Delta variant as opposed to non vaxxed?

I seriously doubt the majority of people will get sucked into it again.

No doubt. So maybe helping them understand that unsafe practices and resistance to vaccines will only prolong the pandemic is in order.

I got the vax and still alive Gracie. So is everyone else I know.

Almost certainly, with the rising positivity rate and stalled out vaccine program.

How do you propose to count and compare the asymptomatic in either/both groups?
