The Governor of Wyoming on the resurgence of COVID-19 in his state.
"We've had more businesses around the state closed by sick workers than by any of our health orders."

Lol, how would a governor know when a business closes for a while because of sick workers? Do you think businesses call the governor to let him know? Regardless, yes, it can happen, that's why it's called a pandemic. So what?

You probably have a lot of places forced to shut down because of an outbreak.
The idea that seeking Herd Immunity will be good for business is a fallacy. The more people get sick the less efficient the workforce will be.

Heard on the news yesterday about a school that had to close because so many staff were off sick with Covid. Can't remember where, maybe Ontario? Even last Spring, when we had relatively few cases in BC, my home reno was delayed by six weeks because people were sick, or were testing positive for Covid. Lots of sick people does affect businesses.

Only 17 positive cases of Influenza reported in Canada so far this year. But yeah, COVID-19 is just the flu.

What do you imagine war with China to be like?
You don't have a clue.
But suffice to say they've been at war with the West since they attacked us in Korea.
-
I suspect it would be WW3.
So I guess they can continue to de-stabilize Western Economies through disease all they want.
They're the ones that buy up all the Debt anyway.

China was once a close friend of the West...Nationalist China, that is. Sun Yat-sen, Chiang Kai-shek, Kuomintang...etc.
The Allies flew supplies over the Himalayas and fought hard on the ground the the Burma Theater...together with the Chinese. The Flying Tigers, Chindits and such...all that legend stuff resulted.
During WW2, the Communists under Mao refused to fight the Japanese for the most part...preferring instead to use their Allied given supplies to attack the Nationalists.
Today, Nationalist China has been reduced to Taiwan.
THAT is what we should encourage for China...dump the bloody Reds.

The US will exceed 250,000 Covid deaths this week. The only thing deadlier in the US is Cancer and Heart Disease.
While in Canada, the 11,000 that have died to COVID would make it the 6th deadliest thing. Strokes, Chronic Respiratory Diseases and Accidents usually kill more people than COVID has.
Globally, COVID-19 is seeing a resurgence across the board, but in countries that have taken more co-ordinated precautionary steps, the lives lost can be greatly diminished.

Deaths when compared to caseload. So when you have 1/5 of the Global cases, it's not something to brag about.
When you evaluate Deaths per capita, it's more than double Canada.
Spain, Belgium and the UK are the only developed nations with a higher death rate per capita.
And that doesn't tell the whole story because most countries had their deaths early in the pandemic. Treatment and the age of those who get the disease has lowered it, across the board.
The US is still regularly seeing more than 1,000 deaths a day. I wouldn't be surprised if we see a day or two with 2,000 deaths this week.

7,700 Americans died per day...before COVID.
-
Similar to other countries, many people die every day non-covid related. But the media doesn’t run daily tabulations.

Arizona called for Biden now. Meaning they could overturn Pennsylvania and Biden would still win.
