Maybe the reason cases are spiking is because our southern border is open and thousands of people are coming in untested. Probably many have Covid… They are being shipped all over the country! Who knew!!!
Maybe the situation is getting worse because some people refuse to wear masks or get vaccinated and they’ve chosen to help us all reach herd immunity the hard way.
Some of us have chosen to do contribute to herd immunity the easy way via vaccine. They want to do it the hard way, by getting sick and in some cases dropping dead. I say let them. I’m sure they will keep saying COVID is a myth or spouting whatever nonsense that has been placed in their brains right until they suffocate to death. Which sounds awful, but I guess it’s a great way to own the libs?
I can only speak for myself, but it seems to me like a lot of people who’ve sacrificed for the past year on behalf of society are just about out of compassion for those who willfully refuse the vaccine and are going to resist taking actions to help them.
IMO it’s time to make life miserable for the selfish unvaccinated who are prolonging this for all of us. Weekly testing that they have to pay for. An inability to go to restaurants or travel on planes. We should be done with the pandemic but we aren’t because of these folks. And, make sure we go after people who falsify COVID records as hard as we go after welfare fraud.
I can wear a mask to help those under 12. I can wear a mask to help those who are immunocompromised. I get that. But wear a mask to help protect a person who blames illegal immigrants for COVID because she gets her news from crap sources, or who thinks essential oils are better than vaccines? Let Darwin take care of them.
Although the headline is a little too sensationalist IMO, this is a very informative interview and article. Thank you Dr. Beeler and John Russell. I learned more about the Delta variant from reading this article than from all the related TV reporting I’ve seen up to now. This is what journalism should be!
My thoughts exactly Steven. I have been asking “why” this past week as none of the articles have been dealing with that and finally I’m getting some well laid out answers to my questions. This was a great Q&A. Thank you!
“Maybe” indeed, Cindy.
Thanx for the scientific-based supposition.
I await substantiated foundation for same.
Well, media reports Tuesday indicate that ICE released illegal immigrants who tested Covid positive into LaJoya, Texas without notifying local authorities. And there’s no reason to believe this was an isolated incident or done in violation of any policy. In addition, illegal immigrants are not required by ICE to be vaccinated. This unfortunately undermines the government’s credibility on Covid policy, with a lot of people, understandably.
With some people, Steven, they’re always looking for a excuse.
=====
A few prominent Republicans, including Alabama Governor Kay Ivey, have begun speaking out against false claims and conspiracy theories promoted in conservative media that are leading some Americans to reject vaccines.
Ivey last week told reporters it is “time to start blaming the unvaccinated folks” for rising cases of COVID-19 and criticizing people spreading misinformation about the vaccines.
She said in a Washington Post opinion piece this week that those “pushing fake news and conspiracy theories about this vaccine are reckless and causing great harm,” adding that many of the unvaccinated are “being lied to.”
=====
“Frank Luntz is a veteran Republican pollster advising the administration of President Joe Biden about reaching people reluctant to get the vaccine. He has been warning for months about the impediment to COVID-19 vaccination rates posed by politicization.”
“The key here is to ensure that no one feels like they have to do it. They have to want to do it. So, insulting them or mandating them won’t work,” Luntz told Reuters. “Political messages won’t work, unless you’re Donald Trump. If Trump were to say to them: ‘Hey, get the vaccine.’ That would make a difference. But he doesn’t do that. All he does is complain about the election.”
In a statement last week, former President Trump said, “People are refusing to take the vaccine because they don’t trust (Biden’s) administration, they don’t trust the election results.”

It’s really puzzling they are letting all these people from all over the planet stream into our southern border and with no regard for their Covid status and the ones I’m seeing on tv coming in lately don’t look impoverished and in need to me. Do they want an open border and that’s the plan or will they finally cut it off after so many millions? I wish they’d be honest with us about why they are purposely letting this happen.
Maybe the global elites in their basement (or maybe their penthouses, I’m not sure how this conspiracy theory goes) have foreseen that they need those people to come to America to replace all the people to foolish to get vaccinated, because they’ve run the numbers and they know a lot of you are going to die. And they need someone willing to work for wages that most can’t live on in the restaurant and hospitality industry.
So, lesson learned, show those global elites you’re not a sheep, get vaccinated.
The above that I made up completely off the top of my head makes at least as much sense as the “facts” perpetuated by a lot of you in the comments on these articles.
But it does make perfect sense to me that rather than look in the mirror for why Covid is a problem, it’s much more convenient for a lot of you to blame someone else. That is a foundational cornerstone how Trumpublicans work – nothing is ever their fault, it’s always someone else’s fault. Remember when Republicans were the party of rugged individualism and personal responsibility? Those days are long gone.
Apparently Moderna and Pfizer do not have a vaccine, because there are many cases of fully “vaccined” individual who are getting the new variant and transmitting it.
So what we have is a propagated pandemic flu shot that is going to have to be taken annually.
The urgent nature has little to due with health and everything to do with propaganda. Unfortunately The WHO, CDC and FDA have cried wolf one to many times and now they have no credibility.
I will continue to take my chances with the OEM immune system God gave me, it has worked so far.
