COVID 19 UPDATES: 3 / 18 / 2021

DANGER AHEAD?

Though new case numbers have leveled off to between 50,000 and 60,000 new cases per day, SIGNS OF AN IMMINENT 4TH WAVE ARE APPEARING in the upper midwest and northeast as new case hotspots are turning up just as millions of Americans and many stone cold idiot state government leaders are dropping their guard (and their pandemic restrictions) and Republican idiocy is threatening our ability to reach herd immunity with their vaccine “hesitancy”.  I think we will end up calling this one the “Spring Break Surge” after the fit hits the shan in a few weeks.
