This is an absolutely fantastic must-see graphical demonstration of how covid is transmitted.

Over 160k cases today for the US and NY is starting to pick up, we registered over 5000 cases today for the first time since April.


There were 869 cases in NY 2 months ago, there were 5,055 today, be safe everyone. They need to close down restaurants & gyms, it's not sustainable to keep them open.

I really don't understand how anyone would still pretend this is not a serious problem if we are vaulting towards 200,000 new documented infections PER DAY. That's pretty outrageous considering how much could have been done to minimize this

At this point, the base of infected is so large that it is going to keep spreading voraciously.

At the rate this is going we could have tens of millions more infected before a vaccine is even viable

Masking up in public is essential

So I logged into to Facebook to bust some balls and somehow I got to a page where these parents from Long Island are bitching and moaning about their children having to chose between fall school sports that got pushed to the spring due to the virus and their kid’s regular spring private leagues. The ignorance and lack of any empathy for our frontline and hospital workers was appalling. These people live in some kind of bubble.

Probably was a rich area of Long Island, so many entitled people here.

Nah, it’s these soccer moms on the south shore. We have a Caren outbreak here. They are terrorists. One of them on Facebook who I scolded said she was at her son’s lacrosse game as she responded to me with much glee.

Dead mink infected with a mutated form of COVID-19 rise from graves after mass culling
Joshua Bote, USA TODAY Published 4:16 p.m. ET Nov. 25, 2020 | Updated 8:43 p.m. ET Nov. 25, 2020


Mink infected with a mutated strain of COVID-19 in Denmark appear to be rising from the dead, igniting a national frenzy and calls from local officials to cremate mink carcasses.

While the sight itself is certainly terrifying for the residents of West Jutland, a region of the country grappling with confirmed COVID-19 cases connected to mink, there is likely a scientific explanation for the zombie-like reemergence from their graves.

A Danish police spokesman, Thomas Kristensen, told a state broadcaster that gases form while the body decays underground, according to the Guardian.

“In this way, in the worst cases, the mink get pushed out of the ground,” Kristensen said of the nightmarish sight.

There are many 'zombie' animals. Here's which ones you should actually worry about.

The nation has planned to cull all 15 million mink in the country, which produce 40% of the world’s mink fur.

Because of the rushed burial, the animals were placed in shallow graves – just over three feet deep. Now, officials plan to bury the creatures in graves nearly double the depth. The area will be also monitored nonstop until a fence can be set up, the Guardian reported.

But for some local officials, that may not suffice.

Some have also been concerned about the graves’ proximity to rivers and other water sources, which may contaminate water supplies in the region. At least two mayors have suggested burning all the mink corpses in order to prevent further concerns, the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten reported.

As of Wednesday, Denmark has reported more than 74,000 COVID cases and 800 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins.

I agree with the doctor that needs to show idiots that this isn't a fcking hoax and it's not the flu.

If it was a hoax, then how come so many people are suddenly in the hospital? And suddenly an anomaly in pneumonia related deaths during 2019-2021?

People need visual cues, got to show people that this is dangerous. When AIDS spiked in the 80s, people didn't care until they started to see what the virus do to you.

In the end, she's right. These MAGAheads will say, "That's fake news" or something along those lines and they'll simply choose not to believe it. Look at how BallSac keeps banging his head against the wall while refusing to accept reality.

Vitamin D vitamin D Vitamin D

https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/20200518/more-vitamin-d-lower-risk-of-severe-covid-19

please make sure you and your family are getting a lot of vitamin D. You can take supplements, get vitamin D with sunlight or get Vitamin D in the foods you eat. its very hard to take too much vitamin D. There seems to be more and more studies coming out that show the benefits of vitamin D in preventing/mitigating the symptoms of Covid.

I read a study that Marijuana helps block 70% of the receptors that Covid latches on too. I haven't been sick in a year that I know of.
