That said, Putin is sure getting a break from the Biden admin. You must be pro Russia now since I have not heard anything about that. It's what happens when you have a senile old man, who was even ineffective as a senator, fraudulently inserted somewhere he should not be.
Cheney’s demotion was all about the leadership of the Republican Party choosing denialism over reality.Quote:

These are facts.. and to deny them is lying..
Why do you support Barbara Boxer and Eric Swallwell keeping their committee positions when they were compromised?
He admires the squad, Waters, and Schiff
Who said I support Boxer of Swallwell. What is up with so many strawmen arguments in a single post?Quote:

It’s Biden/Harris/DNC and the liberal arse media that’s in denial of all of the real and terrible crises happening because of the current zero leadership in the WH.Quote:

A return to restrictions, lockdowns, mandated masks???? Guvnar JBE is having a conference call with health/community leaders across the state or had one as it might be concluded by now. There are spikes in positive cases. There have been 6,800 new cases and 20 new deaths across the state.
They can lock things down if they want. My profession and similar will not work, which will shut down banking all together. We were asked to appraise properties using exterior only inspections. We refused because you can’t certify that the inside of the house is of any specific condition or quality without personally seeing it. The banks relented and told customers that they could only complete home purchases or refi’s with proper appraisals and inspections. We never missed a day and we haven’t been sick. Have not heard a word from banks that we were connected to any customer for contact tracing. Just be smart. Don’t shut down.
Probably true across the state as well, but access to public buildings in Natchitoches requires a mask.
Infection and hospitalization numbers decreased every day last week. Did anyone see an article or news report celebrating this? Not sure what is going to happen to numbers all over the south with the hurricane.
Our governor had already made up his mind to extend masking. He loves to think he is pushing people around. It's a leftist democrat thing.Quote:

Fixed it for you above.Quote:

As of this afternoon, very latest numbers. Across Louisiana 25% of regular hospital beds are available...empty, ready for a patient, and 18% of ICU beds are available. There was a brief time period, maybe 3 weeks to a month, when Louisiana was at 100%+ capacity for beds, but that passed and now for going on a month there have been, and are, beds available. This should be welcomed good news for everyone!
Fatality rate since the inception of the China virus pandemic in Louisiana is 1.87%. That's the official number. That's the percentage of those infected.
Seems low to me...not that I want it to be higher...but, with all the lockdowns and shutdowns and cancellations, wrecking the economy, looks like a major over-reaction to me. Especially given that the lion's share of the deaths had other circumstances connected to them, and those folks were living on borrowed time as it was.
Rate would have been higher if you pushed the hospitals over capacity. We saw that play out in other parts of the world.
A doctor friend of mine says the infection rate is MUCH higher. A lot of clinics don’t report their numbers properly or at all. Says beyond that, a lot of folks never get tested, they just tough it out.Quote:

Does anyone get the flu anymore?
Yep! the REAL fatality rate is much lower. As you said, we will never know how many people actually have been infected, but in Louisiana, it is higher than the officially reported 734K. Some (many?) of the deaths attributed to the China virus had nothing to do with the virus itself, and we will probably never know that accurate number either. I don't agree the numbers will "certainly" be revised up. More likely they will go down.Quote:

There is a hysteria which has attached to the pandemic causing otherwise rational people to say and do strange things.
More positive news this morning across the state. Trends remain encouraging, so much so, that they announced this would be the last Monday morning "emergency" teleconference unless things turn sour again. The crisis has passed re: hospital bed availability and staff workloads. Trends on new cases are also encouraging, as are the severity of the cases.
Everyone, regardless of your political leanings and your personal views on vax and mask mandates, pro or con, should welcome this good news.
