btw, the 1M number is bogus. All these labs take weekends off and in this case a long weekend. Come Monday they dump all the data at once.

That's why people only look at the 7-day rolling average which is now 480,000 per day

There was never 1 million positive tests in one day

This is going to get real interesting, real quick.
Teacher’s Unions are insane but the Chicago’s teacher’s union really takes the cake. Hopefully they will put out another dance video to show their angst.

For those who missed there last interpretation dance video. Enjoy the cringe.

Data surge attributed to delayed reporting over holiday. It’s more like a 5 day surge.

I have all 3 shots; I wear a mask when going inside, I even wore one to see the trans-Siberian orchestra. No illness, no problems.

Time for people to take responsibility. Get vaccinated, wear a mask inside around other people. Kids, too young to be vaccinated, need more space in classrooms and wear a mask except when outside.

You can still get sick, do your best to protect yourself. Stop following those who are against self-responsibility.

I don’t have any shots and wear a flimsy mask only when required. Still haven’t caught covid. Spike protein free.

Time for the vaccinated to take responsibility and stay home.
They are obviously the cause of this “record breaking surge” because there are more of them than unvaccinated. Vaccinated are real danger to unvaccinated. They’re killing people.

Makes for a good headline, though.

I lasted about 50 secs. That's all I could take.

We saw TSO. Sold out show at the arena.

No masks, no vaccines.

No outbreaks, no one who we went with is sick.

Can I help you up? You must've fallen out of your chair with shock.

It's cases, not hospitalizations and not deaths....just people who tested positive.

January 2021 they were reporting surges in hospitalizations and deaths.
Today....CASES
