Second wave is much less pronounced when you look at deaths. All the vulnerable people already died and the treatments are much better.

The good new is the left’s ground game is being hindered by the virus. I would think the nursing homes aren’t allowing people to stroll in and collect ballots. Are people still going to be piled into busses to go vote?

Lock downs are the cause not the cure.

They are conflating positive PCR tests with cases while still committing an ongoing genocide in nursing homes. Pure evil.

Just how many of these cases are of any major significant medical malady?
I now now 2 people who’ve had this, and NOTHING more than a bad cold. Aches & pains, runny nose, and loss of taste.
Is all this hand wringing necessary for the majority of the population?
Older folks & pre-existing condition types should be careful. otherwise get back to normal!

Influenza’s Case Fatality Rate is 0.1%
COVID-19’s Infection Fatality Rate is 0.65%.
COVID-19’s Case Fatality Rate is 2.72% as of right now.

Different measures and totally different numbers than what you’ve come up with here.

“Is a new lockdown coming?

If so, will it take effect on November 2nd?”

Could be, could be. Or if not that, then sudden mass confusion on election day as — for public health reasons, of course — polling locations must be closed or suddenly moved, wait times go through the roof (mostly after 5 PM when Republicans get through working for the day)...

All because the Democrats know they already have the mail-in vote in the bag and Republicans will be the ones mostly voting on election day — if we can.

Look for a replication of this Democrat stratagem in every critical state, and probably many more.

However, just as they are beginning to celebrate the success of their latest ploy, some high-profile Democrats may finally see exactly how deadly this “virus” can be.

OK, let me get this straight.

Dr. Shehe says there is a resurgence in COVID-19.

For most of this year, we’ve been forced to obey their rules. This has led to many small businesses being shut down. Those that told them to go to hell were harassed by gubbamit officials.

Now this thing is going to tell us that it is OK for the thugs to go out and play Thugball for the people that still waste that time with that garbage game show during a resurgence of this thing?

I wonder what degenerate in the NFL is forcing them to do this. Moreover, why are they obeying? This is a frigging spit in the face to each and every single small business owner out there. They’re merciless to those that cannot fight back, but will open up the arena for the damn game shows during a surge in cases. Frigging amazing.

On a much lighter note, I am pretty sure our esteemed Governor regrets, to this day, appointing this thing. I don’t think in a million years they expected this self-mutilator to be on TV for months on end. People in this state get to see first hand what a clown show the New Democrat Party has become. I hope that helps out both this year and 2022 when PA selects a new Gov & hopefully elects a better US Senator.

Our Lt. Gov is a similar mess. He looks like a frigging ogre. He gets a bunch of praise for basically accomplishing nothing. He’s also a Harvard grad, so you know damn well he’s a liberal communist (they always fail to point that out ... they sell him like he’s a “common man that worked his way up ... complete lies).

Did he really have his weiner cut off?

Were you a fan of Tug McGraw? I was a freshman in college when he played in the World Series. I believe the reds won in 1979?

my niece is an epidemiologist in Harrisburg. She just started. I haven’t been able to ask about her new boss. I cant understand how one could respect a nut case who doesn’t even know if he is a man?

Sweden got hammered for what they did, but it appears they were on the right track. Read the last sentence in this post - this is what PA is going to face & any other state with draconian lockdowns - you cannot hide from this virus. Also, just CASES is not the issue - if the hospitals are not overwhelmed with ventilator cases & the cases are not resulting in high fatalities, then it’s a “casedemic” not a “pandemic”.

Superb conversation with Dr. Sebastian Rushworth, covering the gamut.

Covid-19: Does Sweden have herd immunity?
https://sebastianrushworth.com/2020/09/19/covid-19-does-sweden-have-herd-immunity/

Last 3 paragraphs:
So, if Sweden already has herd immunity, what about other countries? How close are they to herd immunity? The places that have experienced a lot of covid infections, like England and Italy, have mortality curves that are very similar to Sweden’s, in spite of the fact that they went in to lockdown. My interpretation is that they went in to lockdown too late for it to have any noticeable impact on the spread of the disease. If that is the case, then they have likely also developed herd immunity by now. Which would make the ongoing lockdowns in those countries bizarre.

What about the vaccine? Will it arrive in time to make a difference? As I mentioned in my first article, lockdown only makes sense if you are willing to stay in lockdown until there is an effective vaccine. Otherwise you are merely postponing the inevitable. At the earliest, a vaccine will be widely available at some point in the middle of next year. How many governments are willing to keep their populations in lockdown until then? And what if the vaccine is only 30% effective? Or 50%? Will governments decide that is good enough for them to end lockdown? Or will they want to stay in lockdown until there is a vaccine that is at least 90% effective? How many years will that take?

So, to conclude: Covid is over in Sweden. We have herd immunity. Most likely, many other parts of the world do too, including England, Italy, and parts of the US, like New York. And the countries that have successfully contained the spread of the disease, like Germany, Denmark, New Zealand, and Australia, are going to have to stay in lockdown for at least another year, and possibly several years, if they don’t want to develop herd immunity the natural way.
