The pace of COVID-19 deaths has remained relatively steady since May, despite an uptick in July to about 400 a day, according to a USA TODAY analysis of Johns Hopkins University data.

“We’re sitting on this horrible plateau,” said Dr. Daniel Griffin, an infectious disease specialist with Pro Health Care in New York and a clinical instructor of medicine at Columbia University. “It’s been this way for the past couple of months, and we’re getting used to it.”

In July, more than 12,500 Americans died of COVID-19, according to the USA TODAY analysis.

The US regime thought people would only tolerate 200 deaths a day, but it turns out the brainwashed american populace can be taught to accept twice that rate by convincing everyone it's only other people that will get sick and die. :amerikkka-clap:

COVID-19 is “like having to live in flu season year round, and that’s not what we do with the flu,” he said. “If we had to do that with the flu, we’d be instituting more measures than what we do.”

      Yeah, if monkeypox spreads easily on surfaces, and not just being in close contact with someone infected, we're fucked. Not enough vaccines and an election coming up so the "party of science" won't lift a finger to stop it in fear of pissing off voters and making line go down.

        Good thing we all blew our load on sanitizing surfaces back in 2020 on the disease it doesn’t do anything for and now most people think of that as bullshit security theater

      then they're going to use the fact that it's killing them as a reason to do a pogrom on 'the gays' because it's a gay disease, and it's killing 'us' now, so clearly, the gays are killing us!

        Depends on your state/county it seems. Some barely have any vaccines and it's impossible, others you basically just have to say you have had lots of sex recently
