TODAY IS FEBRUARY 21, 2021
There has been a Dramatic drop in the number of cases of Covid 19 infections being diagnosed in the USA.
Medical Scientists would give one explanation and the Anthropologists, add to the explanation adding the societal element.
Medical: Both New York Times and Wall Street Journal had good articles about the fall in Corona Virus incidence.
They credit Herd Immunity from undetected infections (a little stretched as it is not possible that up to 50% of the population has been infected with the Virus without knowing about it ?), improved compliance with the Chief Doctor's recommendations.
But the high positivity rate of tests, in Miami , one in ten tests are positive, which shows that far fewer people are being tested. Oye, this is not Cuba where there is an excellent Public Health Service in place, I think Americans have an inherent dislike to the word Public, I feel which they associate with Socialism: like Public Health in Miami is non existent in its presence (in poor Cuba , made poorer by the last four years of suffocation by the Giant of the North, a visitor is checked three times in the first five days of his stay and there is constant vigilance by brigades of students and nurses and doctors, with door to door checking). As we now see in Texas, one of the more conservative states, Public Infrastructure also in shambles. In general, in places where you have a government which truly CARES for the public wherever they belong in the rainbow spectrum, you get better results.
Those interested in this matter, please read how ISRAEL is dealing with the virus despite reluctance from a minority of dissidents and has already vaccinated about 60 per cent of its populace (USA before January 20th was negligible but now stands at 13%)
If you are interested in looking at our friends Japan or South Korea or Taiwan or New Zealand or Australia, you can see what went wrong in the USA with regard to the care of the population.
But look at the graph again. Trump lost his election on November 4th and finally and reluctantly gave up his seat on January 20th, during which time he instigated very nearly a civil insurrection and the rate of Covid virus infections jumped. Jut watch the graph.
November 4th to January 20th, USA had the highest rate of infections in a while.and if you look at the rate after January 20th, it started plummeting.
When you have a president who reconciles than divides, when you have a leader who is level headed rather than fiery, when you have a leader who puts out a fire rather than start one, one who wears a mask, in fact two masks which makes over 90 percent secure that Virus does not enter, then the general population, whether descendants of the pilgrims in Massachusetts or the nabobs of negativity of banana republic of Miami or the millions of Mexicans, Hondurans, Guatemalans will feel a sense of relief..
to any one it is obvious that the general ambiance of the country and the anxiety level at individual levels all have improved dramatically.. The virus survived in a caustic atmosphere whereas a sensible population, calm and obedient to the scientists rather than hypocritical, false messiahs of chloroquine and other purveyors of snake oil remedies.
At this rate, with 1.7 million vaccines being given per day and pharmacies (but avoid Publix Pharmacies for their owners contributions to NRA and Jan 6 insurgency) and Walmarts now joining in can easily vaccinate the entire nation and by the end of April, we can sigh collectively....
Now, is the time for the people of Nuestra America as Marti said to see this gentle example of the Giant of the North: kick out oligarchs and fascists and welcome caring people to lead you with a little bit of financial and vaccine help from the North.
Just today, scientists have realized that for those people who had Covid infections symptoms or no, need only one shot to boost their antibody production by a thousand fold and thus saving millions of doses which can be donated to the brothers and sisters in the Caribbean and also Central and South America.
Soon, you will see me heading to Miami International Airport heading to places where I can look after the PUBLIC ..May Madre Selva bless me ..!
