Obviously tribal domestication and cultural integration remain a challenge. I personally think it's something in the waters. Perhaps someone should check the waters.
Nearly 1,000 members of the @CalGuard are activated for fire missions in the air and on the ground.

COVID is a respiratory disease. It should not peak during summer, when people are out in the sunlight and vitamin d levels are high. Last summer it tapered off. So what's different this year?
#7
Cold and flu season soon. OH, what joy. Children starting school so covid alarms will sound. We will see at least eight years of this. Constant daily stress. So look for many more developments. All bad of course. Public is polarized as ever. Turn off the TV. Don't read the newspaper and avoid internet. A mass psychosis is occurring. The fun has just begun.

#4 yes, indeed. I have met those who survived the Spanish flu. They speak plainly. No extreme views. Being outside did work without masks. 80% Higher death rate among those who wore masks and of course they shamed those who did not wear masks. Then of course to those who feel they are the anointed ones your words are blasphemous.

It should not peak during summer, when people are out in the sunlight and vitamin d levels are high.
It peaks when people are crowded together indoors. In the American south, that would be summer air conditioning season. We went through this last summer, too.

Appreciate your thoughtful comment, TW. AC is something I hadn't considered.
I kind of arbitrarily picked Florida. Numbers are here, but I'm open to other sources. Click on "historical" to get everything through Jan, 2020.
It shows a steep rise peaking on July 1. I suspect that has more to do with ramping up testing than with actual case numbers, but again, open to alternative interpretations.
I didn't see a good month by month of AC usage, so I, again arbitrarily, picked Miami average temperature. This breaks 80 in March and stays over 80 through November.
I don't see a clear connection between what I would think of as AC usage months and case loads, or hospitalizations or deaths. I do see a clear drop off in August which starts rising again in October which appears to better fit a seasonality interpretation. However, I suspect that teasing out AC numbers specifically might be tough. Lots of states use it, not all of them in the South.
I haven't put in the time, but it would be interesting to look at seasonality in poor, hot countries where we would not expect widespread AC usage, and seasonality of other respiratory diseases. Common cold (another coronavirus) and flu (because there is a vaccine) could provide useful insights.
Vaccines. These mRNA vaccines set the stage for increased infection rates. I'll be branded a kook, so be it. But soon you'll see a major die off of the vaccinated, exactly as intended.

If there is to be a major die-off of the vaccinated, Speart Whealet3245, I’ll say my goodbyes now against future need. You’ll know what happened when there are no more articles posted by me for a few days in a row, and no periwinkle in-lines. Mr. Wife, trailing daughter #1, and final daughter also had the Pfizer vaccine, as did my 95 year old mother, so someone will need to stop by the house in Cincinnati to arrange for our bodies to be buried before the field mice and the raccoons get carried away with their feast.
Henri is rated a 2 on the AccuWeather RealImpact™ Scale for Hurricanes in the United States due to the anticipated rainfall, damaging winds and storm surge set to impact Long Island and New England. As of Sunday morning, according to the National Hurricane Center (NHC), Tropical Storm Henri was swirling over the Atlantic about 125 miles south-southeast of Montauk Point, New York, which is the very end of Long Island.

Re: Henri,
at 800EDT, the Hurricane was downgraded to a Tropical Storm by the NHC
it was weakened when it moved north of the gulf stream and lost the oceanic heat
new alert will come out at 1100EDT
Not as dangerous as Hurricane Sandy which was a larger system, a stronger system and had a more dangerous trajectory, i.e., it hit from the east

Maybe Henri will wash away the sour milk smell.
[DailyBriefForeignBrief] International Army Games 2021 (ArMI-2021) will kick off today under the organization of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.
The 7th such games in a row, ArMI-2021 will see 277 teams from 42 countries compete to take home medals in 34 military contests—covering nearly every aspect of combat—which will be held over a period of 19 days. In addition to Russia, 11 other nations will host ArMI-2021 events.
These “Combat Olympics” are an important forum for developing combat tactics, sharing skills, and building rapport amongst the participants.
ArMI-2021 will coincide with Russia’s International Military-Technical Forum, Russia’s largest weapons and military technology exhibition. 15 foreign nations are anticipated to participate in the forum. Last year, Belarus, Brazil, India, Pakistan, Kazakhstan and South Ossetia hosted national exhibition pavilions.
These events roughly sketch out countries allied with Russia or equipped with Russian military hardware. Notably, India is a regular participant in the games and the forum, despite India’s closer alignment with the U.S. led Quad. During the events, expect Russia to promote its Checkmate fifth-gen fighter to India and others, attempting to build international support for the fighter program.

[MedRxiv] - The short-term effectiveness of a two-dose regimen of the BioNTech/Pfizer mRNA BNT162b2 severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine was widely demonstrated. However, long term effectiveness is still unknown. A nationwide vaccination campaign was initiated early in Israel, allowing for a real-world evaluation of the interaction between protection and time-from-vaccine. The Delta (B.1.617.2) variant became the dominant strain in Israel in June 2021, as Israel is currently experiencing a new surge of cases. Leveraging the centralized computerized database of Maccabi Healthcare Services (MHS), we assessed the correlation between time-from-vaccine and incidence of breakthrough infection. We found that the risk for infection was significantly higher for early vaccinees compared to those vaccinated later. This preliminary finding should prompt further investigagions into long-term protection against different strains, and prospective clinical trials to examine the effect of a booster vaccine against breakthrough infection.

It is a virus. It will always mutate rapidly and get around our defenses. They have for billions of years and we will always be one step behind and reacting.
Putting a nation on lockdown because of it is stupid and cultural and economic suicide.
#8
It was known to be a single strand virus, which are far more likely to mutate more often. This was talked about right after the DNA was sequenced. Why are people acting surprised now?
Also reminder that correlation is not causation, so be careful about jumping to conclusions.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
