According to WHO, here's U.S. Covid data first week of Sept 2021 vs. 2020:

Cases: 2021 1,034,836; 2020: 243,884
-324% INCREASE

Deaths: 2021 11,371; 2020: 5,006
-127% INCREASE

Two-third of American adult are fully vaccinated, too, as well as over 80% of seniors (most vulnerable). In no scientific text book/process does vaccinating a clear majority of adults & super majority of vulnerables lead to this kind of result.

Something. Ain't. Right.
Some will look at these numbers and say the CFR is down from 2% last year at this time to 1% now, and that is the success of the vaccines. That is a valid point, to a point. However, then you also have to acknowledge the vaccines do not thwart transmission effectively.
Thus, what progress we made on the CFR, and that is a substantial decrease, we sadly more than make up for on the total death end with sheer increased volume. Thus, the positive gains in CFR are negated.

The progressive site has AT LEAST nailed Fauci for lying to Congress. And confirms what I've said for months: it's not just gain-of-function research but its goal -- specifically gauging the "spillover potential" of these viruses from bats to humans.

theintercept.com/2021/09/06/new…
What this means, as we pointed out in our best-selling book "Faucian Bargain" almost 6 months ago, is that the specific type of gain-of-function research they were doing had AS ITS GOAL the creation in the lab of such a virus.
They were specifically prompting a "spillover" event. They specifically wanted to know what caused these viruses to move from bats to humans. They were specifically provoking that outcome, so it wasn't an accident. The leak may have been, but not the outcome.

Israel, where over 70% of all adults are fully vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine, has recorded 280 deaths with Covid the past four weeks. Israel only recorded 108 deaths with Covid the previous 13 weeks before that combined.
If I'm reading the Hebrew translation into English of the Israeli Ministry of Health dashboard correctly, and that could be a big if, it appears unvaccinated deaths are running about 2-1 ahead of partially or fully vaxxed per 100k people so far in August.
For example, yesterday Israel reported 34 deaths per 100k: 19 unvaccinated, 9 partially vaccinated, 6 fully vaccinated. So even as its transmission efficacy dramatically declines, Pfizer appears to be providing some decent death efficacy over there.

967 people died with Covid in U.S. yesterday. Let's just assume all unvaccinated. About 51% of U.S. population is fully vaxxed, which means 161.2 million people aren't. Here were your odds of dying with Covid in the U.S. yesterday:

Vaxxed: 0%
Unvaxxed: .006%
Obviously that .006% number isn't stratified for age or co-morbidity, but it does tell you why there's vaccine hesitancy and it isn't ignorance. It's people weighing the long-term risk of injecting experimental tech on its third booster, vis-a-vis the current risks of the virus.
And since transmission efficacy for these vaccines has severely waned, this is no longer about "you're gonna kill grandma or your fat friend." This is really and purely a personal decision for each individual's bodily autonomy.

If you have Covid vaccinated your children, or are thinking of it, please note this from a preprint study cited in this thread from the Journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics looking at 63 teenagers, 92% male:

pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/pediat…
"All had received an mRNA vaccine and, except for one, presented following the 2nd dose. Four patients had
significant dysrhythmia. 14% had mild left ventricular dysfunction on echocardiography which resolved on discharge."
"88% met the diagnostic cardiac magnetic resonance criteria for myocarditis. None of the patients required inotropic, mechanical, or circulatory support. There were no deaths."

#AndrewCuomo committed one of the worst political atrocities in our history in New York nursing homes. Even if Al Capone goes to Alcatraz for tax evasion instead of the St. Valentine's Day Massacre, it is still righteous to applaud any form of justice imposed upon such a fiend.
Nor do I buy the argument someone worse will just take over. How do you get worse than a governor who signed a kill live babies bill, then murdered his own elderly? All Democrats in executive power are some form of Marxist anyway, with maybe the governor of Louisana an exception.
Cuomo wasn't just another run of the mill Marxist, or at least another Democrat willing to play footsie (or grab ass in his case) with Marxists for power -- he was also a terrible, terrible human being. A vile knuckledragger who deserves capital punishment, as do all murderers.

Here's what we need from Trump, instead of ridiculous claims of saving 100 million lives with therapeutics that have already proven to not immunize against transmission.
1) Not make the same mistake he made locking down the country at all, let alone the second time.
2) Not make the same mistake he made elevating Fauci to potentate status.
3) Not make the same mistake he made criticizing states like Georgia when they reopened last year.
4) Not make the same mistake he made waiting way too long to bring Scott Atlas in to counter Fauci.
5) Not make the same mistake he made falling for a media panic that set the stage for the very dubious mail-in election process that was his undoing.
