(3,610 posts)Thank you for taking the time to post this info and the links. I've been seeing lots of these reports and was thinking it would be good to have them all in one place, should I need to post some info to some 'covidiot' friends of mine. You did all the hard work, thank you! I've copied the list and will then be adding to it as more stories come through.
We have all the people going home from Sturgis, Lalapoluza, etc. to be concerned about, and all the other 'super spreader events' that have been happening. We are so divided about this. We are so stupid (as a country).
And then there is Lambda (still under study), but that is really scary, and news I don't think the country is ready for. If you haven't heard about it, here is a link:
