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.

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).

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.

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'

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.

Quote:Doesn't Texas have a lot of private prisons? Yanno, going through this list
80 percent of those who died of Covid-19 in Texas county jails were never convicted of a crime. ... 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 ...
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!

Right, however many have been working behind the scenes with drug manufactures and pandemic experts despite Trumps administration. They have been brainstorming to come up with a way to precede when a vaccine becomes available. And what steps to put in place to fight the virus until then.

Asia's economies are bouncing back. The West is headed in the other direction
Asia's biggest economies have managed to escape prolonged fallout from the coronavirus pandemic. Now they just have to make sure rising cases in the rest of the world don't put their recoveries in jeopardy.
Japan reported Monday that its economy expanded 5% in the July-to-September quarter, allowing it to emerge from recession. That translated to an annual rate of expansion of 21.4%, the fastest pace on record for the world's third largest economy.
Hours after Japan's announcement, China released data showing that its recovery is also continuing to pick up steam. Industrial production in the world's second-largest economy rose nearly 7% last month, beating estimates from economists polled by Refinitiv. Retail sales rose by slightly more than 4% — the fastest pace this year.
The promising news out of Asia stands in sharp contrast to the West, where many nations are grappling with a resurgence of Covid-19 and have been forced to once again impose restrictions in an attempt to bring their outbreaks under control. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell reiterated last Thursday that the US economy will need more stimulus from both the government and the central bank to get through the crisis.
The Bank of England warned earlier this month of a douple-dip recession for the UK economy as the country re-entered national lockdown. The European Union is facing a similar fate.
"In large part because of a significantly better containment of the virus, most Asian economies are performing better than their Western counterparts," said Louis Kuijs, head of Asia economics at Oxford Economics.

Biden is trying to get the man he defeated to take action now to try to mitigate the desperate situation he is likely to inherit in January. In a statement on Friday, he called on Trump to concentrate on the emergency at hand and to take urgent action.
But Trump, who held a press conference on Friday claiming credit for vaccine developments while ignoring the lightning spread of Covid on his watch, appears only to have an interest in one thing: his own diminishing political prospects.

BILLIONAIRE MEGADONORS WHO FOUGHT WISCONSIN’S PLANS TO CONTAIN PANDEMIC GET INFECTED AT WHITE HOUSE

Trump megadonors Liz and Dick Uihlein, owners of Uline shipping and outspoken opponents of COVID-19 prevention measures, have tested positive for the virus after attending an election night party at the White House.
Earlier this year, Liz Uihlein called the pandemic “overhyped,” lobbied legislators to overturn the public health restrictions by Governor Tony Evers, and backed a petition to have the Governor removed from office. A rare and brief interview with The Guardian on April 23 introduced Uihlein by stating:
“One of Donald Trump’s most fervent billionaire donors is lobbying against strict stay-at-home rules in the election battleground state of Wisconsin, raising troubling new questions about how the president’s rightwing financial supporters may influence the US response to the pandemic.”
A family friend accidentally linked the Uihleins to Wisconsin’s reopen protests in a separate Guardian interview.
The couple were tested for the coronavirus after saying they were around others who contracted the virus, according to an email sent to employees of Uline. The New York Times tweeted on November 12 that Trump advisor Corey Lewandowski, who was also at that party, tested positive and White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, political director Brian Jack and others in the administration also tested positive after attending the party.

Let’s be honest: But for the covid pandemic, Trump would quite likely have won. Indeed, had he been a more intelligent populist demagogue he might have raised his popularity prior to the election by embracing the role of national champion leading the fight against the virus.
And let’s keep being honest: Biden’s electoral college victory was close. He won Pennsylvania by 0.7%, Wisconsin by 0.4%, and Georgia by 0.3%. Had fewer than 0.5 % of Biden voters gone for Trump in these three states, he would have been re-elected. Moreover, in each of these states the votes received by the Libertarian candidate was greater than Biden’s margin of victory. We know how things might have gone had there been no Libertarian candidate -- Trump would have won.

Scott Atlas’s rabble-rousing will lead to illness and death. He should be fired.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/
SCOTT ATLAS is a neuroradiologist, not an infectious disease expert, nor an epidemiologist. As President Trump’s leading adviser on the coronavirus pandemic, he continues to make statements that will cause more illness and death. He ought to be fired immediately.
This weekend he was speaking about Michigan, which, like other states in the Upper Midwest, is struggling with the raging virus. Hospitalizations are way up, new cases are shooting ever higher, deaths are four times greater than in September, and the test positivity rate is 9.8 percent, indicating the virus is spreading. On Sunday, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer announced reasonable new restrictions in an effort to slow the spread, including closing bars and restaurants, casinos and bowling alleys; sending college and high school students to remote classrooms; and ordering all but essential workers to labor from home.
“We are in the worst moment of this pandemic to date,” she said in words that could apply to the entire country. “The situation has never been more dire. We are at the precipice and we need to take some action because as the weather gets colder and people spend more time indoors, the virus will spread, more people will get sick, and there will be more fatalities.”
Dr. Atlas has frequently belittled lockdowns and pandemic restrictions, saying they have deleterious knock-on effects and are unnecessary, and that only the “vulnerable” need protection. Of the Michigan restrictions, he wrote on Twitter: “The only way this stops is if people rise up. You get what you accept. #FreedomMatters #StepUp.” So, while the governor was desperately trying to save lives by slowing the virus transmission, Dr. Atlas was urging people to disobey and revolt. This is incendiary talk, especially since the governor was the target of a kidnapping plot foiled by the FBI before the election. Dr. Atlas later insisted he would never encourage violence and was talking about voting and peaceful protest. Michigan governor announces new coronavirus restrictions Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) on Nov. 15 suspended indoor dining at restaurants and bars for three weeks due to the rising number of coronavirus cases. (Governor Gretchen Whitmer/Facebook)
But the damage was done. His message was that people should ignore the governor and resist the pandemic restrictions, as Mr. Trump did with his “LIBERATE” tweets in April. If Dr. Atlas’s advice is followed, more people will get sick and die. The nation is engulfed in coronavirus infections; the spread is extremely alarming, with more than 100,000 new cases every day since Nov. 4. The tidal wave of disease is stressing hospital systems to their limit, and all but ensures that deaths will be increasing in the weeks to come.
It is bad enough that Mr. Trump walked away from a strong federal response to the pandemic and left it to beleaguered states. Now that the states are on the front lines of the battle, telling people to disobey the governor and “rise up” is appallingly ignorant and foolish. “It actually took my breath away, to tell you the truth,” Ms. Whitmer said on Monday. Yes, it is breathtakingly wrongheaded."
---
Dr. Atlas is not fighting for you or me. He's backed by conservative money and the Hoover Institution, which essentially means that his role is to twist any medical evidence that he can to avoid lockdowns that will affect businesses' bottom line. His role is not to care if 1% of all American workers die, so long as the gears keep turning and the economy keeps running. Basically, he's a disingenuous evil hack.
Atlas is a traitor and should be dealt with as such. Fuck Nazis.

Asia's economies are bouncing back. The West is headed in the other direction
Asia's biggest economies have managed to escape prolonged fallout from the coronavirus pandemic. Now they just have to make sure rising cases in the rest of the world don't put their recoveries in jeopardy.
Japan reported Monday that its economy expanded 5% in the July-to-September quarter, allowing it to emerge from recession. That translated to an annual rate of expansion of 21.4%, the fastest pace on record for the world's third largest economy.
Hours after Japan's announcement, China released data showing that its recovery is also continuing to pick up steam. Industrial production in the world's second-largest economy rose nearly 7% last month, beating estimates from economists polled by Refinitiv. Retail sales rose by slightly more than 4% — the fastest pace this year.
The promising news out of Asia stands in sharp contrast to the West, where many nations are grappling with a resurgence of Covid-19 and have been forced to once again impose restrictions in an attempt to bring their outbreaks under control. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell reiterated last Thursday that the US economy will need more stimulus from both the government and the central bank to get through the crisis.

Japan 21.4% almost seems a pittance.

Well, [male, smoker] is a GREAT target demographic for heart disease - no government intervention required!

Middle-aged males though, without the elderly males too?
Not sure there are many ailments out there with those parameters.
I'm quite physically active for my age and I have a great diet. Sure... smoking isn't good for you, and I will pay for it for sure, but I can point out a lot of 40 year olds I know that are much worse off than I am, regardless of whether they smoke or not.
