The Course of the Delta Variant Might Alter My Expectation for a Political Solution

..

The spikes are related to weather. Southerners are staying indoors a lot more in July and August compared to people in the northeast and west coast. That's why TX and FL are spiking first.

The only thing that may alter the path this time is if a LOT more people get vaxxed between now and the end of September. Originally Posted by Kinkster90210

Biden should mandate forced vaccinations as part of processing on these folks.

Count me in. I know it doesn't make a lot of sense to some people but I have been into debating ( whether I do it well is debatable ) since I first found Crossfire on CNN in 1982. I was fascinated and I was hooked, been doing this for almost 40 years now. I had friends who would not come to my apartment at that time because they hated that I watched "that crap" in their words.

Unless you can make a direct causation relationship to our surge, and that of the British and Indian surges. I doubt the would-be Immigrants have had a material effect. But not enforcing a vaccine on them destroys the narrative of Politicians who insist on masking and restrictions on others.

In regard to the Britian/Indian surges, I have no idea their causation. There could be multiple causations.

In regard to the US southern border causation, I cannot with a high degree of confidence establish causation. Why? There are simply no numbers available to the US public and I simply don't have a high degree of confidence in them if there were.

So you admit to drawing a conclusion without any evidence pitiful
