    At this point kids are most vulnerable because of the lack of vaccinations.

    Once these monsters start seeing their own kids die maybe they’ll change their mind. Nah, they’ll be happy the kids don’t have to learn critical race theory. “You can’t indoctrinate my child anymore, suck it, libs!”

    Compare these two daily lists of cases etc. Do the math. Consult the populations listed below. You can do it.
    That's the work. I could show you an Excel with all the work, but it wouldn't have a LINK!!! and therefore wouldn't be to your liking.

    Lest you forget, your assertion was that over the last 6 days, "States with Trumpist governors: 36.40 new cases per 100K." Which is kinda interesting, seeing as how the worst state with the highest 7-day rolling average of new cases is ballpark 16 (per 100K). There must be some serious variation in reporting patterns across the states. Or you're full of shit. One or the other, I suppose.

    As I linked previously, my numbers came from Johns Hopkins.
    They refer not to a daily average or daily rolling average but to the figure per 100K over the time frame.
    I can't vouch for whether there are different reporting patterns. But I am not full of it.
    The image is a screen shot of an Excel I put together. It reveals the same thing. Trumpist states are disproportionately responsible for the growth of the virus they and their lord and savior ignored.
    If I have erred here, let me know. Excel did the math.

    All I know is daily cases here are back to levels we had in February - before everything was wide open - and there’s zero movement toward reinstatement of masking or social distancing, let alone indoor dining restrictions, canceling concerts or anything else.

    No, no. You can ask for math OR grammar You don’t get both.

    Singed,
    There’s a reason I’m teaching history and not English.

    It was my bad ... I follow the rolling daily average. @tapintoamerica was reporting a weekly figure.

    Let me note as well that @tapintoamerica is doing "it" right in calculating his aggregate per-100K figures. You don't wanna calculate the individual state values and then average those, because that approach can be pretty misleading.

    I don't want to even imagine what it would take to consider bringing back the restrictions we saw in the spring of 2020. No one has any political will to do so, even if daily numbers of new cases, hospitalizations and deaths begin rising again.

    Hopefully we won't have to face this problem.

    Almost all the hospitalizations are unvaccinated people. Fuck ‘em.
