July 16, 2021: Pandemic of the Unvaccinated

up 70% in a week, deaths are up 26%, and hospitals are facing a surge in patients needing care.

“This is becoming a pandemic of the unvaccinated,”  she says. She explains that 97% of the people entering hospitals in the United States with COVID-19 are unvaccinated. On July 15, CDC reports 39,014 new cases. This rapid rise is similar to September 2020, when we were headed straight into the jaws of the worst six months of the pandemic. 

For the day, 285 new deaths were reported. That brought the toll for the first half of July to 2,887.

 

Speaking for the medical profession, in general, Dr. Mark Rosenberg, president of the American College of Emergency Physicians, likens the situation to a war, with the soldiers of medicine battle-weary and worn down. “I really think of it as a war and how long can you stay on the front line,” he says. “And how many times do you want to go back for another tour of duty. Eventually you just don’t want to do it.” 

In Springfield, Missouri and Jacksonville, Florida, hospitals have been overwhelmed again. In Jacksonville, discussions are ongoing about setting up tents in hospital parking lots to handle the overflow of newly infected (unvaccinated) patients. Chad Nielsen, director of infection prevention at one facility, explains that during the first three waves of the pandemic hospitals pushed back all kinds of other surgeries – and had just begun to bring back patients who had delayed care. Now his hospital is discussing canceling procedures again.

 

“To be telling someone, ‘Sorry, we have to delay your hip surgery or your procedure because we have too many COVID patients who are largely unvaccinated,’ it is just not what we signed up to do in health care,” he said.

YOU MAY HAVE HEARD Rejected-President Trump talk about voter fraud in Arizona. It was massive. It was historic. Joe Biden got 15 million extra votes in the state that he didn’t deserve.

 

Even cacti voted for Joe Biden!

 

Having heard Loser Donald’s incessant whining, the Associated Press set out to find all the fraudulent voters in that state.

 

County election officials, the AP found, have so far identified 182 possible cases out of three million votes cast.

 

Of those, four cases have led to charges.

 

FOUR.

 

So, a Numbskull Award goes to Loser Don, greatest political crybaby in American history, rated forty-first best president in a recent survey by historians.

 

(There have been zero convictions.)
