If you’ve been following recent poll, you’re aware that Donald Trump is gaining ground in the field of battle as Kamala Harris ‘ wedding swing is now diminishing. Yet rumors of fresh voting on the horizon suggest that Trump’s lead is returning. Democrats are obviously in panic as this race seems to be returning to pre-debate patterns, where Trump just needs to win one orange wall state and Kamala will have to get all three.

But obviously, COVID-19 has to come again. I wish I were kidding. COVID infections are rising, in fact, according to Aron Solomon of The Hill ( gasp! )! and we must take action to stop it!
COVID is surging? Who is even testing for COVID again? According to Solomon,” Abnormalities of the disease continue to occur, and new variants are emerging, posing ongoing issues to public health and safety”.
He adds,” As we look ahead to the majority of 2024 and into early 2025, we need to take inventory of where we are, understand the factors driving this rise, and better predict how the pandemic may evolve”.
The recent increase in COVID-19 circumstances has slowed down summer vacation ideas, slowed down care options in some places, and left some Americans with the well-known symptoms of fever, cough, and fatigue. The summer weeks, normally associated with lower respiratory disease activity, have otherwise seen a significant rise in COVID-19 attacks. This sudden wave is caused by a number of factors.
One of the reasons is that older varieties are highly transmissible. Yet among populations with high vaccination rates, some variations have increased their ability to spread the virus, with some of them showing this. Although vaccines still work to prevent serious illness and death, breakthrough infection are becoming more prevalent, especially as immunity from earlier vaccinations declines.  ,

Solomon continues:
Next, a more popular pleasure of public health measures has created an environment conducive to transfer. Mask demands, social distancing rules and regulations on large groups have all but disappeared. This return to normalcy, while substantially psychologically and economically useful, has provided the disease with enough opportunities to spread.  ,
I’m not sure what alternate reality this person lives in, but he paints a picture of another apocalyptic pandemic and advocates for the same treatments we went through last time: social distancing, masking, evacuations, and though he does n’t say so explicitly, something tells me that large mail-in election is also one of the issues he’d like to see happen again.
” So where do we realistically go from here, given that it is obvious that COVID-19 is far from over”? he asks. While there has been a lot of progress in terms of vaccination and care, the recent surge is a stark reminder that complacency is not a choice. A renewed commitment to public health may be required from both government officials and citizens.

Grant me a break. Consider, in 2020, Joe Biden’s “victory” hinged on only 50, 000 vote between three battleground state. Mass mall-in election, which is extremely no secure, made that triumph possible.
Many on the appropriate have joked for years that the remaining did try to reclaim COVID before the 2024 election. Unfortunately, we were best.
