The US remains among nations with the highest rate of new Covid-19 cases, driven mostly by a surge in the South, where many states are lagging in getting people vaccinated against the coronavirus.

"This is starting to look really ominous in the South. ... If you look at rates of transmission in Florida and Louisiana, they're actually probably the highest in the world," Dr. Peter Hotez, the dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine, told CNN's Anderson Cooper on Friday.

On a state-by-state comparison, Louisiana has the highest rate of new cases per capita, followed by Florida.

The media and White House are painting one of these two state's governors as the grand COVID evil lately and the other barely ever mentioned. Weird...

It should also be noted that Florida leads the world in treatment for Covid+ patients. Patients are being kept out of the hospital and returned to normal life in stunning numbers. Death rates from Covid are at an all time low. The absolute rejection of CDC guidelines is saving lives at an unprecedented rate.

So Floridians are living mask free, unfettered lives without fear, but it’s ominous that people are getting sick. So weird how liberty is seen as a threat.

If this report is true, could there be any connection between where the government is shipping illegals and the COVID increases? Not saying, just saying.
