Then she says she is not sure she will take the vaccine

Huh?

Showed me a video - some Vermont doctor talking about invasion of our privacy and changed DNA.  And how it is unwise - when 99.5% will survive this - to be taking such radical strides to stamp it out

Whoa.

Seems to me that the strain of Covid in the US is much more potent than that in Australia...or the one in Australia was as potent but has now lost some of its punch.


....and China

But Bo thinks they are just smarter

He’s not wrong.

But he leaves out the deliberate harm done. This Administration is fucking evil.

This finding suggests that other factors, including racism and discrimination, are negatively affecting their health outcomes through additional avenues.


Heh

Doesn't quite describe anything, does it?

"We want them infected!"

Logged on to Elba to post that.   The Alexander emails remove all doubt.   The administration was a rogue government, in full rebellion against the facts and logic of its own public health agency.   

Bo,  it's always "Idiot Hour" here.

Welp...


https://www.politico.com/news/2020/12/16/trump-appointee-demanded-herd-immunity-strategy-446408

According to the APM Research Lab, as of mid-September, “1 in 1,020 Black Americans has died (or 97.9 deaths per 100,000).” More than 200,000 Americans are confirmed dead from Covid-19, and a disproportionate number of them are Black.

Do a disproportiante have comorbidit(ies)?

Just a quick note from the planet Earth....vaccines don't alter your DNA. 

So three people have read the Politico smoking gun story,  two have posted it,  and exactly zero Trumpistos have offered any comment.  Yeah,  I might hide from that one,  too,  if I were a red hat.

New bill also appears to give HALF the increased unemployment benefit - 300 rather than the 6.

So some folks can still lazily benefit

Lazily...

I wonder who he thinks is getting over on $300.

Or if he's noticed state governments are going broke,  so this may be all the unemployment benefits many will have.   Food,  rent,  bills.... that's about enough money to "lazily" reflect on whether you skip meals or let them shut off the water and heat.

The enhanced unemployment (supplementing regular unemployment which varies from state to state) is $300 since Trump’s executive action in August when the $600 from the original stimulus expired.

Hey if you want to go up against the expertise of an unnamed Vermont doctor it is your business.

Black children are 6 times more likely to be shot to death by police than white children are.

French President Macron has tested positive.
Ridiculous.
Not scared enough, obviously.

I'll return to Marx later today.
Marx and his cohorts introduced a decree that hereditary properties had to be purchased by the inheritors.
My ancestors said "stuff that" and boarded the boat for South Australia.
