Ridley’s Believe It Or Not July 10, 2021
CV World Cases: The CV pandemic across the planet continues on a slowing down basis the new year with cases now over 187 million at 187,112,997 cases ( 186,839,186 cases yesterday); 11,982,480 of which are active, 175,130,517 closed with 171,090,997 recoveries (97.69% and 97.69% yesterday, and 4,039,520 deaths (2.31% and 2.31% yesterday) to continue the slow trend of increased cases with increased recovery percentages and decreased death percentage with some plateaus, dips, and rises.
CV USA Cases: Total cases now over 34 million at 34,713,748 (34,711,416 yesterday) with 4,862,348 active cases of which 3,940 are serious or critical (3937 yesterday and 8,599 on 3/25/2021) (now up to .081% of active cases and now a steady increase in the number of serious or critical cases to decrease the reduction from the 29,271 peak on 12/31/2020 to 25,331, 29,851,400 closed, with 622,737 deaths (2.09% and 2.09% yesterday) and with 29,228,663 recoveries (97.91% and 97.91% yesterday). Our death rate percentage continues to slowly improve and after many months is still .22% lower than the world’s death rate.
Standing: On a deaths per million population measure on a steady but slow climb to 1870 the U.S. ranks behind Peru (5804) the new number 1 which has had a quantum leap in deaths previously unmatched which was a change in the classification to give Peru the a new method of reporting to have a fatality rate of 9.36% of total cases now; Hungary the new number 2 has had a huge continuing surge in deaths with the increase now slowing down and improving slightly to 3.89% of its closed cases have died (3114), aping Hungary in terms of increase in deaths Bulgaria 2631), Brazil (2484) which has been hit with a rapid rise in deaths and cases and passed us and Italy, Belgium (2164), Argentina (2152), (Italy (2116), Poland (1988), and the UK (1881) which had passed us despite leading world in testing and now has new deaths barely increasing), and slightly better than Mexico (1801), Romania (1791), Chile (1751), Spain (1732), France (1702), Portugal (1687), Sweden (1437) that never closed its economy down like we did, Bolivia (1447) and Switzerland (1250).
Tests: We have now conducted 511,549,418 tests (now at 1,536,268/M) compared to number 2 now France at 1,467,910/M) as we are conducting more tests in number and on a per capital basis for all nations (other than those nations that contain small populations like Bahrain, Denmark, Israel, Malta, Singapore and UAE) other than the U.K. which remains as king of the mountain with respect to tests at 3, 262,032/M.
CV Open Gate: Lost in the pronouncements by Biden and his lackeys that there is no crisis of illegals surging across the border is that fact that COVID-19 is alive and well and spreading in the Northern Triangle and Mexico which been passed by Argentina to move down to 11th on my list of deaths from the pandemic at 1801/M with a fatality rate of 10.33% of closed cases and the 3 countries in the Northern Triangle in terms of active cases and deaths per million are as follows even though the data may be suspect as underreported (regardless of number we need no more cases):
Guatemala: Active Cases: 28,387 Deaths/M 528
Honduras: Active Cases: 171,455 Deaths/M 717
El Salvador: Active cases: 4,532 Deaths/M 374
US Vaccinations: As of 7/10/21 333.6 million doses at .514 million per day down from .594 million per day which means if the rate does not increase it will take us now an increase to some 9 months to have 75% of the population vaccinated which many believe is necessary to develop herd immunity (other than Flip Flop Fauci who now believes that 90% is required). In California 43,507,479 total doses have been given (87.6% of doses received to exceed the U.S. average of 86.2%), but even with the pressure of a recall to be scheduled this fall which hopefully end Newsom’s term, California has finally has not moved up from 18th of the 50 states in terms of the percentage of doses administered as a percentage of doses delivered to the states and at 50.9% of its population fully vaccinated compared to the U.S. average of 47.9% has not moved from 18th among the 50 states. A long way to go still to get herd immunity in terms of getting vaccines received into arms and the percentage of the population fully vaccinated compared to other states which means a great reason to recall this inept and hypocritical governor.
Non CV News: Searchers at the collapsed Champlain South Tower with 86 deaths confirmed and 43 believed to still be missing have ended their search for survivors and are now searching to recover bodies believed to be in the rubble; the woman whose SUV was surrounded by rioters in Denver and was caught on video hitting one of the rioters has been found by a jury to be not guilty of assault but of reckless driving; CNN is at it again with its medical contributor Leana Wen warning that the investigation of the Wuhan Lab Leak theory as the probable source of the pandemic runs the risk of increasing anti-Asian American violence and has come out it favor of mandatory vaccines; great video of what CRT brainwashing is doing to our kids as a white kid with his mom on a bike watching in approval rips an American flag out of the ground to toss it to the ground: https://twitter.com/TheMarieOakes/status/1413575603866021896?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1413575603866021896%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fus%2Fvideo-child-american-flag-rips-ground; Harris, who is the poster child for validation that the Peter Principle is alive a well, seems to be admitting she has to much on her plate which explains her missteps and miscues; Washington which succumbed to the woke attack over its name “Redskins” and ceased using it has announced its new name will be announced in 2022; Sen. Haggerty has slammed liberals who believe that China will conform to the terms of rational civilized behavior as the facts show in case after case they will not to our detriment; as the UFC 264 match between McGregor and Poirier gets closer the trash talk between the two of them seems to have escalated beyond the mere attempt to create interest in the fight to sell more pay for views to bring out some really bad blood between the 2 of them; the CPAC conference in Dallas had to endure a ten minute blackout as straw voting in taking place with the results to be announced prior to Trump’s address; as the Blues are preoccupied with the events of 1/6/21 to try to drag out their investigations into the elections to damage Red chances, leave it to the political cartoonist to point out the absence of their concern the fires and looting that occurred during riots spawned by anger over Floyd’s death:
Chicago Gun Violence: Hey Jackass.com is alive and well to collect data to show that through July 8, 2,021, gun violence involving mostly persons of color shooting mostly persons of color in Chicago is alive and well with 2148 persons shot of whom 367 have died.
