Worldwide
Ranking mortalities/population, Bosnia .2925%, Brazil .2544%, Columbia .2222%. Italy
.2120%, Peru .2045%, (???-problem with numbers) England .1926%, Mexico .1876%,
US .1832%, Spain .1733%, France .1695% and Sweden .1422%. I don’t see Brazil in
the news. Why? Cases and deaths are exploding. They are second behind the US
with 523,587. Six states, NY, NY CT, CA, MA, WA. account for 25.218% of cases and 29% of mortalities.
TX and FL respectively 16% and 15%. NJ has the most cases/population at 12%. Of
the big four, new cases reported, NY 3,457, CA 12,773, TX 12,340 and FL 23,747.
Worldwide, things are looking up. US
accounts for 18.270% of cases and 15.150% of mortalities. Are vaccines the
reasons rates are starting to drop? Good question. If you go back and track the
1918-19 pandemic you will see the numbers started tailing off after one year
and disappeared after a year and a half. During this one, 6.34% of the
population died versus .1822%. Remember,
no vaccine was ever developed to defeat that one. Case wise, we are way below
the number of the H1N1 of 08-09, 60.8 million cases versus 33.504,936, With
only 12,469 reported deaths, we dodged a bullet. But then this one wasn’t
politicized like the current one.
In regards to our Northern and
Southern border, Canada and the US have agreed not to open the border until
July 31, 2021, yet Biden and Harris have no problem with an open border to the
South. Why is our Southern border still open?
