California Covid Case Rate Is Twice Florida’s
California is the quintessential Democrat state, characterized by rigid Covid tyranny that includes an impending vaccine mandate for schoolchildren. Florida, we are told, is unsafe because Ron DeSantis’s misguided fondness for liberty has allowed Covid to rage out of control. Yet in California, Covid cases…
…have climbed back up to the CDC’s blood-red “high” level of virus transmission as the highly contagious delta variant continues to wreak havoc.
Meanwhile, the virus has gone quiet in Deep South states that abandoned mask orders, opposed vaccine mandates, posted lower vaccination rates and saw larger outbreaks over the summer. California’s case rate is now well above Texas’ and double Florida’s, which along with the rest of the Gulf Coast are down to the CDC’s orange “substantial” transmission level.
Meanwhile Sweden, which never locked down, is doing fine.
Any price is too low to sell liberty. People who succumb to Covid hysteria give their liberty away and get nothing but lies in return. Liberty is not the only price paid, as Thomas Lifson notes:
Why, it’s almost as if we’ve been given bad advice and paid an enormous cost for measures that haven’t solved the epidemic and may have made it worse. Children losing more than a year of in-person schooling. Medical tests and procedures postponed or canceled. Businesses destroyed. Unbearable psychological stress and soaring suicide rates among children.
All we have to show for it is a lesson: self-proclaimed Experts should be regarded with extreme skepticism, especially when they speak on behalf of the power-mad liberal establishment.
