What's it all mean?

The OMICRON wave is dying.

Steep declines indicative of its inability to burn super hot for too long.
Bottom line

At this rate, I might be able to get away with some non-daily updates

Will see... Clearly, we are still at a high rate... but the trajectory is clear.

Is it over? Ain't gonna say that. But I'll take some good news...

Have a good night. Stay warm this week

Let's talk about a story you might think you know a lot about...

yet you probably don't know this.

THREAD

In 2019, a semi going 85 mph and loaded with lumber collided with car after car after car on I-70.

The driver said he lost his brakes. You know all that.

You also likely know that four people died that day.

At least ten others were injured.

The crash happened April 25, 2019, on I-70 near Colorado Mills.

Last month, @GovofCO got involved when he reduced a 110 year prison sentence to 10 years for the driver of the truck

The 110 year sentence for Rogel Aguilera-Mederos became the subject of a national outcry re: harsh sentences

Rogel, for his part, apologized at sentencing.
