If COVID is "rampant" now, expect another 500,000 meaningless deaths if Trump gets back in.

"and more than half of those deaths occurred in the U.S."

The Japanese are right; we are a dirty people.

"Red states in general have had far higher death rates than blue states. Of the five states with the highest death rates - Arizona, Oklahoma, Mississippi, West Virginia and New Mexico - GOP governors led all but New Mexico during the height of the pandemic. Governors who bucked the trend of covid denial led all five jurisdictions with the lowest death rates (Hawaii, Vermont, Utah, Puerto Rico and D.C.)."
