May be a cartoon of text that says 'MAREET During the the Black Death, incoming ships were forced to wait for 40 days to prevent possible infection. The Italian word for 40 "quaranta", is where we get the word "quarantine". weird-facts.org @factsweird'

Georgia is almost back to the mid-October lows in new cases reported.  Positivity rate was 5% yesterday.

Vaccines are becoming more readily available, which I surmise reflects the national trends.  First doses 1.4 million, second over .9 million.  Population 10.6 million.

I'd guess we have 4 million or so with some level of resistance.

Who would actually take the time to prove/disprove parallels?Of course when I was wagering I use to come across some very unusual conclusions from prognosticators

Fossil CO 2 emissions in the post-COVID-19 era | Nature Climate Change

Five years after the adoption of the Paris Climate Agreement, growth in global CO2 emissions has begun to falter. The pervasive disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic have radically altered the trajectory of global CO2 emissions. Contradictory effects of the post-COVID-19 investments in fossil fuel-based infrastructure and the recent strengthening of climate targets must be addressed with new policy choices to sustain a decline in global emissions in the post-COVID-19 era.

Global fossil CO2 emissions have decreased by around 2.6 GtCO2 in 2020 to 34 GtCO2 (Fig. 1). This projected decrease, caused largely by the measures implemented to slow the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, is about 7% below 2019 levels, according to the analysis of the Global Carbon Project1 on the basis of multiple studies2,3,4 and recent monthly energy data. A 2.6 GtCO2 decrease in global annual emissions has never been observed before. Yet cuts of 1–2 GtCO2 per year are needed throughout the 2020s and beyond to avoid exceeding warming levels in the range 1.5 °C to well below 2 °C, the ambition of the Paris Agreement5. The drop in CO2 emissions from responses to COVID-19 highlights the scale of actions and international adherence needed to tackle climate change.

Daily Deaths down across the world with few expectations, of which Brazil is the first nation to come close to beating the U.S. in a single daily death toll in many months:

In the U.S. daily death counts down across all states with Virginia being the weird exception:

I gotta believe China,India have a higher death rates.The US count also includes many other deaths in hospitals to cover the revenue lost for non essential procedures/surgeries which are starting to pick up

I don't think the US count of deaths is inflated much at all, it corresponds closely with excess deaths due to all causes since last March.

The US had fewer than 2.9  million deaths in 2019, it's going to be 3.2 million for 2020, a very striking an unusual increase.  For March to March is will be 3.3 million plus, probably 3.4.

But there were still many bagged and tagged that could easily have been appropriated differently.For instance the 78 yr old woman with diabetes and stage 4 cancer in the final throes but the China Viras gets credit.And I'm hard pressed to believe India and China are lagging our numbers

China's just lying outright.  We know it.  So are Iran and Russia.  Japan was early-on, desperately trying to keep the Olympics.  Maybe they've trued up by now, maybe not.

And then there are vast sections of India, and the entire African continent, that simply lack the infrastructure to record and report it.  Plus they're busy with other diseases that in general are far more deadly than C19.
