Meanwhile, Australia has almost eliminated the coronavirus — by putting faith in science

The Washington Post reports:

The Sydney Opera House has reopened. Almost 40,000 spectators attended the city’s rugby league grand final. Workers are being urged to return to their offices.

Australia has become a pandemic success story.

The nation of 26 million is close to eliminating community transmission of the coronavirus, having defeated a second wave just as infections surge again in Europe and the United States.

No new cases were reported on the island continent Thursday, and only seven since Saturday, besides travelers in hotel quarantine. Eighteen patients are hospitalized with covid-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus. One is in an intensive care unit. Melbourne, the main hotbed of Australia’s outbreak that recently emerged from lockdown, has not reported a case since Oct. 30.

Meanwhile, in the United States, 52,049 people are hospitalized and 10,445 are in an ICU, according to the Covid Tracking Project, a volunteer effort to document the pandemic. America’s daily new cases topped 100,000 on Wednesday, and its death toll exceeds 234,000, a staggering figure even accounting for its greater population than Australia, which has recorded 907 deaths.

Wow (and not in a good way)

While we have been riveted by the 2020 election, the pandemic has continued to rage out of control in parts of the US, particularly in parts of the upper Midwest and northern Mountain States.

At its peak, NY had an average daily rate of 51 infections per 100,000 people. Now, 17 States have infections rates higher than that.

The worst is North Dakota, at 174 infections per 100,000 people. By contrast, the worst country on the planet, Czechia, had 117 infections per 100,000 people at its recent peak.

In addition to North Dakota, 5 other States have infection rates equal to or surpassing that of Czechia.

ND, which currently has a 7 day average of 173.6 infections per 100,000 people, can expect a death rate of 3.75 per 100,000 people daily, very close to the death rate of 3.93 per 100,000 in NY at its peak.

There is no indication yet that ND’s infection rate has peaked. Nor, with the possible exception of South Dakota, is there any such indication for any of the other 16 States with infection rates similar to Czechia.

Sadly, it appears likely that by Thanksgiving there is going to be a full-scale emergency in parts of the upper Midwest and Mountain States similar to the one that engulfed NYC in April. And as the reality of his defeat slowly sinks in, it is highly unlikely that Donald Trump or anyone in his Administration will give a damn.

Pfizer plainly said that fat dumb fucker Trump had nothing to do with creating the vaccine nor when it was announced.
www.sciencemag.org/news/2020/11/fact-check-no-evidence-supports-trump-
s-claim-covid-19-vaccine-result-was-suppressed


Trump had predicted in almost every campaign rally that the media would stop talking about the coronavirus pandemic the day after the election. But as it turns out, no one is ignoring the worsening tragedy more than the President himself.

Instead of taking charge as the country plunges deeper into the worst domestic crisis since World War II, Trump has disappeared inside the White House, saying nothing on camera since he baselessly claimed a week ago that the election was being stolen from him by President-elect Joe Biden.

He's spending time with advisers, not strategizing on how to tame the out-of-control health emergency but seeking a path to win an election already declared lost. He's also found time to purge the top leadership of the Pentagon, and with few appointments on his public schedule appears to spend his days watching news coverage and tweeting misinformation about voter fraud.

In essence, Trump, his family and his advisers are spending all their energy desperately trying to save a job -- the presidency -- that he appears to have no intention of doing in any meaningful sense.

It's an especially staggering and surreal failure of leadership, given the Covid-19 crisis and the subsequent economic turmoil, even for a fat dumb fucker President who downplayed and lied about the true nature of the pandemic and repeatedly predicted the virus would just go away.

Rand Paul is a public health hazard

Kentucky Senator Rand Paul took a moment out of his day to implant some deeply flawed information into the brains of Fox News viewers. Paul, an actual medical doctor, told host Martha MacCallum that instead of hunkering down, Americans that have already contracted Covid-19 in the past should “celebrate.” “We should tell them to celebrate,” Paul said. “We should tell them to throw away their masks, go to restaurants, live again, because these people are now immune.” This is, unfortunately, not the case. Though increased antibodies immediately after infection may temporarily help people avoid getting the virus again, research shows the protection is short-lived, a matter of a few months.

Rounding out his comments, Paul then taunted Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s leading infectious-disease expert, saying, “Dr. Fauci doesn’t want to admit to any of that. Dr. Fauci’s like, ‘Oh, woe is me,’ until the election occurs, and now maybe he’ll be changing his attitude.” The Republican senator then followed up on Twitter with more lies, insisting he is the truth teller, not Fauci:

Senator Rand Paul @RandPaul
To all the scientific illiterates denying immunity after COVID infection, realize you are denying the science of natural immunity which is the foundation of vaccine science. (PS even Fauci admits to immunity after COVID).

https://twitter.com/RandPaul/status/1327231647645831168

Replying to @RandPaul
South Dakota’s first-time positivity rate reaches a staggering 68%. As hospitalizations typically follow positivity rates by 2-3 wks & death rates increase 2-3 wks following that, you should be able to pick up a used Harley at a nice price for your special someone by Christmas.

80 percent of those who died of Covid-19 in Texas county jails were never convicted of a crime
The “devastating human toll” of Covid-19 in Texas’s correctional facilities is revealed in a new report by University of Texas at Austin researchers.
https://www.vox.com/2020/11/12/21562278/jails-prisons-texas-covid-19-c
oronavirus-crime-prisoners-death


A team of researchers at the University of Austin at Texas reviewed data from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ), which has reported that at least 231 people have died of Covid-19 in the state’s correctional facilities between March and October. This report only looked at state-operated prisons and county-operated jails, as researchers were focused on how Texas’s Covid-19 prison policies had fared.

The 231 figure is likely to be a conservative count. As the researchers note, TDCJ and county jails update death reports after autopsies are conducted, sometimes months after the fact. Additionally, many people have “died without ever having been tested for COVID,” and others died due to a preexisting condition worsened by the virus and are not counted in this figure.

"Every day over 450,000 Americans sit in jail not because they've been convicted of anything, but because they are too poor to pay bail & don't have high powered attorneys."

The 450,000 number counts how many people are detained before their trials each year in America. However, Lieu uses it incorrectly here: included in that number are not only unconvicted inmates who are too poor to pay bail, but also unconvicted inmates who are being detained preventively and held without any bail.

COVID-19 Hospitalizations Surge In Dakotas: 'It's Like We Opened Up A Spigot'

9-hospitalizations-surge-in-dakotas-its-like-we-opened-up-a-spigot


Hospitals are nearing capacity in North and South Dakota, two states where coronavirus has hit disproportionately hard for their small population size and where cases continue to rise daily.

The Dakotas have the most new daily cases per capita of any other state this week — a record they've held or been close to for many weeks. They're also among the worst in the country for two other grim metrics: per capita deaths and per capita hospitalizations.

Doesn't Texas have a lot of private prisons? Yanno, going through this list
https:// en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/List_of_Texas_state_prisons#Privately_operated_facilities
and doing a back-of-the-envelope calculation, I got a total capacity of just over 22,000 in private correctional facilities.

And it looks like they weren't included, making the 80% 'unconvicted' figure completely meaningless.

It's always frustrating when a reporter can't seem to get a meaningful piece of information out. This article is like me saying "I ran for 20." 20 ... what? Leagues? Angstroms? Milliseconds? When they start out addressing "the state’s correctional facilities" it sure sounds like they mean all of them. But then they say it only addresses "state-operated prisons and county-operated jails". And that sure leaves a lot of inmates out of the picture who were convicted!

They don't have a plan. I read elsewhere that Trump hasn't attended a COVID meeting in 5 months.

They just want to let people die. They don't seem to understand that most of the dead are their own supporters.
