Fortunately nothing so dramatic has happened directly to us yet ... but has happened within last 100-150 years a few times nearby ...
On the COVID-19 front our R0 rate is hovering just around or under 1, but here we go again as clearly our leaders don't read the international news headlines "Europe: Sickened by a second viral wave'." I know people are confused in the UK as to the myriad of ever-changing rules and here in the US we also haven't a clue what to do:
- Florida Gov. DeSantis Proposes College ‘Bill Of Rights’ To Party (headline of 25 September 2020)
- The Republican governor also said he would move to block local governments from closing restaurants again. The governor's plan to stop cities and counties from closing restaurants will have no immediate effect because most eateries have been allowed to reopen, albeit at reduced capacity, as part of the governor's plan to revive the state economy.
- Phase 3 FL Reopening Means Bars, Restaurants At Full Capacity -- no masks required! "We're also aware of the need for business certainty," [Governor] DeSantis said. "There have been some local closures and other types of restrictions, so the order that I'm signing today will not allow closures of restaurants, and they can operate at a minimum of 50 percent regardless of local rules."
Storm Brewing: COVID? Or ? we need to send this cloud to CA wildfires!! It looks like the people abduction cloud in La Derniere Vague |
