    Looks like it will be on par with Malaria in 2020

    World is headed for about 1.3 million Covid related deaths, and will have 1.1 Malaria deaths this year

    Compare Covid Only deaths though, 10% of that, 130,000 vs 1.1 million easily preventable Malaria deaths that involve a hell of a lot more children, then....well

    1 in 3 parents won't get flu shots for their child during Covid-19, study finds

    (CNN)One-third of American parents have no plans to get their children vaccinated for the flu this year, according to the National Poll on Children's Health released Monday, despite the very real possibility their child could also catch the deadly Covid-19.

    In addition, two-thirds of parents don't believe getting a flu shot for their child is more important this year, despite advice to the contrary from major government organizations and pediatricians.

    The first criminal coronavirus case in America, to hold those responsible

    Two former leaders of a state-run veterans home in Massachusetts where dozens of residents died in a coronavirus outbreak were indicted on criminal charges and face possible jail time, the state’s top law enforcement official said Friday.

    The charges against Bennett Walsh, a former superintendent of the home, and David Clinton, a former medical director, stem from their alleged roles in abuse and mistreatment of elderly and disabled residents at the Soldiers’ Home in Holyoke.
    At least 76 veterans in the home died of covid-19 as the novel coronavirus swept through the institution, and an additional 84 residents and 80 staff members tested positive.

    “We believe this is the first criminal case in the country brought against those involved in nursing homes during the covid-19 pandemic,” Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey said. “We are alleging that Walsh and Clinton
    were ultimately responsible for a decision on March 27th that led to tragic and deadly results.”

    Dr. Fauci Just Warned of a New COVID Mutation

    Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse—and in a week in which the tally of COVID-19 related deaths in America climbed past 204,000—the headline came:
    "Massive genetic study shows coronavirus mutating and potentially evolving amid rapid U.S. spread." Mutating? Yikes.

    The mutation, mentioned in science journals earlier this summer, made a splash in the Washington Post this past week after new findings. "Scientists in Houston on Wednesday released
    a study of more than 5,000 genetic sequences of the coronavirus that reveals the virus's continual accumulation of mutations, one of which may have made it more contagious,"

    This should be NO surprise its what viruses do they mutate to survive...Just the death toll in NY as compared to Fl Or Tx shows the possibility of mutation

    I know but when Dr Fauci begins warning the American public about a potential threat I feel obligated to communicate it through whatever medium available.

    I see you're back again, It 's good to see your handlers feel you're responsible enough and adult enough to post
    messages once again on the internet.

    WOW!

    Massachusetts Reports 594 New Coronavirus Cases, I remember when the number was below 50 a day just six weeks ago

    130,642 positive cases so far, and there have now been 9,191 coronavirus-related deaths in the state.

    Facepalm man, there have been articles galore in the media on that since the pandemic started

    Researchers in France the most recent to count them

    But you wait till near October for Fauci to mention it?

    That itself is perhaps a big part of ameeriys problem, you all just sit and wait for this one guy, who ironically was chosen by Trump to be the main spokesman guy

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^



    I'm just guessing but there was a recent story about a Cruise ship that had to return to port after 12 of the crewmen tested positive for COVID-19

    I think we can also remember the early days of the pandemic when a couple of cruise ships were involved with passengers confined .

    I dare say you could find pictures of laid up aircraft as well if you search for them .

    I remember those incidents only too well from earlier this year.

    But this particular incident occurred just recently, and one of the first ships to depart a European port since the lockdown and restrictions were lifted.

    Actually according to current projections the number of dead from COVID-19 should easily reach if not far exceed 1,400.000 by years end.

    Btw AIDS/HIV has been molecularly traced back to 1906
