The Coronavirus, not the beer

He'll also have almost no power to actually do anything. People don't understand public health powers are invested in the states.

He won't need it. The hard part is over, the vaccines are in mass production, the military's distribution plan has been made. He'll literally have no impact, but will be admired as a savior. It is all predictable, and it will all be pathetic.
 
1 In Every 800 North Dakota Residents Now Dead From Covid

I'm a British-born reporter covering breaking news for Forbes.


The North Dakota Department of Health confirmed 409 new cases and 27 additional deaths in the state on Monday, bringing the total death toll to 954 out of a population of roughly 762,000, or 0.97 in every 800 residents.

Only two weeks ago—reporting the highest Covid-19 mortality rate in the world the week prior—North Dakota surpassed 769 deaths, joining a list now encompassing eight other states (New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Louisiana, Rhode Island, Mississippi and South Dakota) that have seen at least one Covid-19 death per every 1,000 residents.


Nonetheless, after raking an average of over 1,000 new cases per day for a large portion of November, North Dakota has become the eighth deadliest state in the pandemic, according to data from Johns Hopkins.


That being said, there are positive signs of at least temporary improvement in the state: the number of cases has decreased by 38% over the past two weeks compared to the two weeks prior, while deaths have dipped by 19% and hospitalizations are down 16%.

However, this could be jeopardized by an anticipated boost in transmission nationwide due to the holiday season.

CRUCIAL QUOTE
“It’s a really critical time coming up with the holidays,” said Renae Moch, who directs public health in the city of Bismarck and Burleigh County. “If we continue to go down the path that we are, the Christmas holiday could be much worse than what we’re experiencing right now.”

KEY BACKGROUND
North Dakota did not institute a mask mandate until November, when the state’s Republican Gov. Doug Burgum—who emphasized the importance of a “light touch” from the government throughout the pandemic—declared that the state’s “situation has changed.” White House coronavirus response coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx described the North Dakota’s Covid-19 protocols and mask usage as the worst she’d seen anywhere in the country when she visited the month prior. However, despite some opposition in the state, Carnegie Mellon University’s COVIDcast project, which tracks mask usage across the U.S., reports that nearly 90% of North Dakotans are now wearing masks.

BIG NUMBER
25%. That’s how many North Dakotans reported knowing someone who died of Covid-19 in a poll commissioned by the North Dakota Newspaper Association just before the Thanksgiving holiday.

Deaths per million current leader board...

1. NJ 1989
2. NY 1811
3. MA 1620
4. CT 1482
5. LA 1434
6. ND 1417

So while it's certainly bad in ND, they're still a ways off from those top 2 that are the considered the best at response for some reason.

It is as predictable as the sun rising

Pick one

1) The IHME model predicted 3 million deaths in 2020 without intervention. The Trump administration actions prevent 90% of potential deaths, or 2.7 million lives saved

2) The Trump admin botched everything with a disastrous response, and is responsible for the 300K deaths. Thankfully, the "experts" got it wrong like they seemingly always do, and this virus isn't nearly as deadly as we thought it would be
 
You literally couldn't get a smaller sample size. You know damn well you can't determine anything from that.

We actually know with a high level of precision who is actually at risk. Rudy is a verification of what we already know.

Weird. I remember that you and I were saying this in early April but the academics in this board were of course right because we are dumb rubes.

If they are still right then I'm confused why they haven't praised the Trump admin for preventing 2.7 million deaths

Haha, I doubt you get any responses from the left leaners here

Meta has all but left in shame from his stupidity (but he writes so well!)

Nsacpi is a gluten for punishment but he’s in the same boat.

Idiots masquerading as intellectuals.
 
I the IHME model was BS from the beginning. THe number was originally 60,000 deaths. The 3 million dead number was fabricated to make it seem like Trump was doing a great job. This is old news.

I typed a response but then remembered nothing you say could be taken seriously.

Then typed this.
