    And here I thought back in the Summer we'd see 90-100K (confirmed) cases/day by New Years. Seems more like we'll be flying over 100K soon, especially with no lockdown plans in sight as well as the handful of holidays coming up. Also noticed Texas alone had 7K+ cases, a little over 1,000 of which in El Paso where the hospitals are already at capacity as it is (edit - El Paso is actually going into shutdown mode again)

    Oh that, and one of the old fucks on my dad's side of the family (who completely endorses the idea COVID is overblown/masks don't work/vaccine = bill gates chipping) just tested positive. Hoping my grandparents don't follow suit because they're in a populated area of Wisconsin and yet still go out to eat on occasion.

        Not at all surprised. I mean even taking the neighboring state up here, the Wisconsin GOP is still trying to bring an end to the mask mandate/emergency order as they continue to reach record high numbers and I believe even one of the people trying to get rid of said rules recently tested positive himself.
