The northeastern United States was badly ravaged by the Covid-19 pandemic. The five states with the highest Covid-19 deaths per capita to date are New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island; if the District of Columbia were a state, it would place sixth. snip. . .
Why did these areas, these national centers of government power (Washington), financial might (New York City), and academic prestige (Boston) do so poorly? It is a truism that it’s easier to spot the speck in someone else’s eye than the log in your own; we have seen elite publications from each of these cultural capitals charge that poor, southern, and red states were committing their citizens to slaughter by not following the policy dictates of the northeastern mandarins, even as those policies seemingly failed. snip. . .
Out of more than 18,000 confirmed Covid-19 deaths in New York City, only 28 were in healthy people under 45.

These articles refuse to acknowledge the facts that these states deliberately drove up the case/death counts of Covid.
They sent Covid patients into long term care facilities to kill their elderly and immuno-compromised - no doctors spoke up, not one...euthanasia. These states’ Politicians encouraged protesting and rioting, no doctors spoke out against it - not one.
Kemp keeps extending his EO. What a yob
Open Georgia back up. No masks. No nothing let the people decide their own risk. This is all beyond ridiculous
Yes. Progressives are eugenicists. Killing off the unwanted comes naturally to them. I could easily imagine Cuomo knowing that planting Covid in nursing homes would kill off the old, many who are on state subsidies, to free beds and reduce the burden on the budget. A twofer. They were going to die anyways.
Blue state media hit on red states because they wanted to prove progressive blue state are governed better. They failed miserably.
I am getting sick and tired of rich liberals from these shtholes who keep praising the areas, their school, welfare etc... despite all this crap there. Talk about sophisticates and arrogance.
Yep. No reason to close Georgia. Controlling the Florida border , perhaps because of the NYC trash and antifa garbage from NC coming down there...
Georgia declares state of emergency following deadly shootings
I’m sick of my state of Florida constantly attacked. Our death numbers should be the envy of most blue states yet we are treated by the media like the devil. Sickening!
