BS.
Its real. I'm quoting numbers from RealClearPolitics.
December 31 354k. December 15 310k.
You can argue until you are blue in the face about whether its really 354k and not some lower number, but that doesn't change the fact that whatever they are measuring is going up dramatically. Germany, who did well early on, has practically tripled its deaths in the last few months.
My wife's aunt died last week from it. Another elderly good friend of hers died in late December but we just found out last week. We knew 3 people who died in the spring, but none particularly close. We know people all over getting it now. In the fall it seemed to be mainly younger people.
Its real. Its spreading. If you are under 40 the biggest concern is probably losing your sense of taste (my son only lost his for a week, but his girlfriend is 2 months and counting and we know at least one person for whom its been 10 months). But as you get older, its a nasty disease.
And so as the death rates are the highest they have ever been, the Democrats start opening back up.
