Newly reported Covid-19 cases in the U.S. fell to their lowest level
in nearly four months over Presidents Day weekend, and daily reported
deaths declined sharply from a recent spike.

There were more than 52,000 new cases reported for Monday, according
to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University, down from 64,938 a day
earlier and 89,727 a week earlier. The latest number was published
early Tuesday Eastern time and may be updated later in the morning.


Too bad the US couldn't get rid of Trump 6 months ago. No telling how many lives that may have saved.

===

The best time would have been 12 months ago when he was still denying
that Covid presented any risk at all. Of course his real risk was to
his incumbency which he was acutely aware of.


From Newsweek:

A new report highlights the hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths
in the U.S. under former President Donald Trump, noting that some 40
percent of COVID-19 pandemic deaths in 2020 would have been averted if
America's mortality rate was equivalent to other wealthy peer nations.

The report—published Thursday in one of the world's oldest and
best-known medical journals The Lancet—explains that even before the
pandemic, the U.S. saw 461,000 unnecessary deaths in 2018 when compared
to the death rates in other G7 nations (Canada, France, Germany, Italy,
Japan and the United Kingdom). Comparing the U.S. COVID-19 mortality
rate to this peer group, the U.S. would have seen 40 percent fewer
deaths in 2020 if its mortality rate was comparable.

"The global COVID-19 pandemic has had a disproportionate effect on the
USA, with more than 26 million diagnosed cases and over 450000 deaths as
of early February, 2021, about 40% of which could have been averted had
the U.S. death rate mirrored the weighted average of the other G7
nations," the report explains.

"Many of the cases and deaths were avoidable. Instead of galvanizing the
US populace to fight the pandemic, President Trump publicly dismissed
its threat (despite privately acknowledging it), discouraged action as
infection spread, and eschewed international cooperation," it continues.


Here's where we fall. Cherry-picking a few countries would make us look pretty
damn good.

'Weighted Average'? Show me.

Don't let the facts get in the way of a good rant. Carry on.

BTW NBC Evening News even carried the story that DeSantis is doing
better with his "open" Florida policy in Covid numbers than Newsom and
his lockdown.
They seemed to be confused by it but they did run it.
That is in spite of the influx of snowbirds from hot spots all over
the north and places like UK.

Trump is better. There are many things he acomplished even while
the snakes were biting his ankles. He isn't perfect, but hey, who
is? Joey has trouble remembering his name. I can't think of
anything Joey has done right since he was annointed.
