1.) The new Arkansas legislative district maps have been released (well, sort of). They are without street level detail, but maps nonetheless. You’ll see some significant district changes.

4.) Florida has the lowest Covid-CCP rates in the nation and in Florida, they have done the opposite of California.

(Daily Mail Online) How did Florida end up with one of the best COVID-19 case and death rates in the US?

QUOTE: The declines are despite Governor Ron DeSantis insisting the state would not shut down and refusing to implement mask or vaccine mandates and instead focusing efforts on early treatment

The state is doing just as well as California, despite the West Coast State taking a very strict approach including implementing mask mandates, limiting gatherings and closings bars and indoor dining at restaurants.
Experts say Covid waves usually occur in a two-month cycle – with infections rising for two months before declining – and instead of trying to prevent the cycle from occurring, DeSantis just let it ride out.

5.) Fauci was wrong, yet again. More real life data!

(The Spectator World) 

College football is confounding COVID anxiety

QUOTE: ...yet the college football season is well under way and producing “real-world data” to help determine whether it’s finally time to obsess less about virions and more about, say, Big 10 rankings.

“I think it’s really unfortunate,” Dr Fauci has remarked, taking his cue from a CNBC host who noted crowded stadiums and fed him this prompt: “I thought COVID is about to have a feast. What do you think?”

It must be said this novel type of clinical trial isn’t randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled. It’s not controlled in the least. What it is, though, is huge.

Let’s look at one: Penn State vs Auburn, played in the “Happy Valley” of Pennsylvania which is home to the Nittany Lions. Home fans arrived in uniform with white shirts, white sweaters, white body-paint — a “White Out” across a stadium not exactly built for social distancing (capacity: 106,572). I have nephews — young and trim alums — who must contort themselves while fitting into spaces tighter than the cheap seats on a puddle-jumper airline.

Data? According to the university, seven-day-average infectivity rates among students have fallen consistently from 1 percent on the day of the Auburn game to 0.2 percent currently. Students in quarantine, either because they show COVID symptoms or fall within a contact-tracing chain, have dropped from 34 to 4, this in a home-campus population of 46,000. These trends hold for the entire season to date. (The Auburn game was played on September 18; there have been home games before and since then.)

6.) New CV treatment: Fluvoxamine

“A 10-day course of fluvoxamine costs approximately US$4… compares favorably w/ the treatment effects of more expensive treatments including monoclonal antibodies” Potential mechanisms are anti-inflammatory and antiplatelet action, the researchers added. https://medpagetoday.com/infectiousdisease/covid19/95284

7.) Indiana County Declines CDC Grant That Plans Three More Years Of Covid

8.) Why the CDC Ignores Natural Immunity

“How many Americans have already been infected with Covid? That 20 months into the pandemic we don’t have an answer to this most basic question is astonishing.”

9.) Why Not 5 or 6? When will it ever end?

Immunocompromised Americans who had a 3rd COVID-19 shot can now get a 4th, CDC says
