5 days later and North Dakota has broken 80,000 cases per million, and South Dakota reached 70,000.

I'm afraid the exponential growth is about to bury the US. It's looking ugly all over. Today will be bad. Then there will be a weekend lull. I'm predicting Tuesday will be horrifying. And then it will get worse.

A lot of people are about to die. The sad thing is this was all preventable.

States ranked against some other countries. North Dakota #1. South Dakota #3. For COVID deaths last week.

Johns Hopkins noted 1,707 deaths from COVID on Tuesday, the most since May 14.

"The horrible death count that we saw yesterday in the United States ... reflects the number of people who were being infected three weeks ago -- two to three weeks ago, because that's the lag," Reiner said Wednesday.

"On average, two to three weeks ago, we were seeing 70,000 to 80,000 (new) cases per day. Yesterday, there were about 155,000 (new) cases. So if you're alarmed at the 1,700 deaths today, two to three weeks from now, we're going to see 3,000 deaths a day."

5 days later and North Dakota has broken 90,000 cases per million. South Dakota will likely hit 80,000 tomorrow. They are both way out front. Iowa won't hit 70,000 for a week.

7 days later and North Dakota has broken 100,000 cases per million. That's equivalent to 10% of the population. South Dakota will make it to 90,000 by the weekend.

Yeah it funny how man thinks they are so superior then a little virus comes along to remind us we aren't the brilliance we delude ourselves to be.
Especially when we humans don't want to listen to what science and medicine know or have learned about that little virus.

When we humans do go extinct it will probably be because of WILLFUL ignorance like this.

There are some American conservative Republicans who are already giving us a preview.

I wonder then why the organizers are not being charged with manslaughter? They can't plead ignorance.

Because, heard this from a lawyer on the radio, that this is one of those "this is an act of God" situation. Hard to have case when it's an "act of God".

So people suddenly get religion when a lawsuit or charges are involved?
