So how’s the Commie Cough doing these days? Ummm… oh:

More than three hundred and fifty *thousand* new cases per day and still shooting skywards. How thrilling. Granted, it’s likely that the majority of these cases are the “omicron” variant which seems to be a lot less dangerous, as can be kinda sussed out with this graph:

There is of course a lag between infection and death, but since it appears that the new spike in cases really got going two weeks ago while deaths are kinda-sorta *not* spiking (though clearly not in decline, either, at around ~1300 per day), omicron at least so far appears to be something of a nothingburger.

More than half of the 824,301 deaths (so far) have been under the Biden administration. On January 20, 2020, there had been around 400,000 deaths. I wonder if Biden will stick to his word?

[3:12] Biden: 220,000 Americans dead. If you hear nothing else I say tonight, hear this. Anyone who’s responsible for not taking control — in fact, not saying, I take no responsibility, initially — anyone who is responsible for that many deaths should not remain as President of the United States of America.
