Remember last year when none of the politicians of either party paid any attention to Fauci/CDC and still went on vacation for the holidays? Remember when the Denver mayor last fall told his citizens not to travel while sitting at the airport waiting to travel?
Yeah, its Americans fault! What a freaking joke! Thats right, the rules are not for the sophisticated elite class. Just for the little guy.
With Fauci sitting at a Baseball Game with others and......mask being worn on his chin
It is less about physical geography and more to it.
Last summer the southern states that defied the COVID guidelines saw a surge in the spread after the lockdowns were lifted. Had nothing to do about being in the south.
The south had a surge in the winter just like the north.....why -- because defying social mandates, holiday times, increased travel.
The south had a surge this summer -- not in June when school broke out and the vacations hit but in August when kids went back to school.
And other factors impact the cycles.
Wisconsin never had the preliminary surge -- they didn't see significant outbreaks until fall/winter. Not because it is a northern state -- but more about the lifestyle. Wisconsin is not inclined to get as many visitors, the population density, etc.
Similar in North Dakota. They really have only one big surge....while Florida has clearly had four significant surges. It isn't just the lack of guidelines but also the time of living -- higher density, more visitors from all over.....
Mississippi’s wave began in July. Cases steadily increased and peaked around August 25th. Then they started declining. Previous peaks were in January and July. Roughly a s pic month pattern between peaks.
You can see this six month pattern in most states with southern states being on similar timelines and northern states being on sim liar timelines. It’s a pattern.
No, the auto accident comment is 100% accurate and easily provable. In other news, water is wet.
And no, average life expectancy is 78.8. So it's been nice knowing you I guess.
Okay, prove it. Or disprove the fact that about 36,000 americans died in auto accidents last year. Or disprove the fact that 1,100 or so folks are dying every day from Covid.
I'll wait.
And I can also see that you've never had a stats course of any kind. A 79 year old male can, in fact, expect to live, on average, another 8.98 years. Here's a link to the Social Security web site, but I doubt if you will be able to understand the facts presented.

Nationwide the surge began in July.,
Mississippi and Lousiana were the first to see the impact because they were the least vaccinated states.
But if you look at all the states, this current surge started early July......and hit it's peak and grew a few weeks later.
The surge wasn't caused by school openings.
But school openings facilited the spread and therefore a bigger surge.
First week of school (first week of August) in Mississippi saw 4500 kids in the first week test positive.

This is panic porn combined with speculation. No science or data to suggest this will happen. It's media rumination intended to keep you paying attention. Which is another way of saying complete crap.
It’s religion and it’s a violation of the 1st amendment to force everyone to partake in it.
No, it’s more like the natural pattern of covid. Southern states didn’t surge in the summer due to kids returning to school, they surged because there is a pattern and it was their time to surge, just like they surged the previous summer. Northern states surged last fall and winter and will again in spite of higher vaccination rates in those states. The virus is doing what it was meant viruses do, rise and fall, for covid, roughly every six months, peak and fall over and over again.
Yeah, the pattern this summer was over a million people let through the southern border and not forced to test or even quarantine for covid, and those who had known cases were allowed to travel. Let’s be really honest about the summer surge please.
You just keep making it easy. "Average" life expectancy is a meaningless number when applied to an individual, since it varies with age and gender. How do you explain my 98 year old mother? She is expected to live another 2+ years.
And your covid number is an estimate. confirmed cases are a liitle over 40 million. Do you even know the difference between confirmed and estimates? I go with, you know, actual data, not some SWAG
This last wave has been so bad. I have a good friend who has lost several people to Covid, one just yesterday. Two of my prior coworkers had it really badly. One gal and her husband were out of work for a month and another one was hospitalized. None of them were vaxxed. Anything worse really scares me for people.

The massive migration across the border began in January though.
