"some economists say" COVID-19 threatens the economic recovery in the USA


“Everything that is happening now, the risk of a resurgence in COVID-19 as well as policymakers walking away from stimulus negotiations — those two factors are what my team had feared would happen,” said [Beth Ann] Bovino [Chief economist of S&P Global].

“It wouldn’t be as large [a decline] as what we experienced in the first half of the year, but it would be a double dip,” Bovino said.

Tyson suspends managers at pork plant who placed bets on how many workers would get COVID-19

As state officials and lawmakers urged the shutdown of a Tyson Foods pork-processing plant in Iowa, managers at the plant reportedly placed bets on how many would end up getting sick.

That is one of the many new allegations leveled against Tyson Foods in an amended lawsuit filed Wednesday. The corporation kept its Waterloo, Iowa, plant open even as local officials urged its shutdown early in the pandemic.

As a result, about 1,000 employees contracted COVID-19, five of whom died. That includes Isidro Fernandez, whose family filed the suit against the meat empire this year.

today at the University of Nebraska Medical Center at Omaha


In the past two weeks, the hospital had to convert an entire building into a COVID-19 tower, from the top down. It now has 10 COVID-19 units, each taking up an entire hospital floor. Three of the units provide intensive care to the very sickest people, several of whom die every day. One unit solely provides “comfort care” to COVID-19 patients who are certain to die. “We’ve never had to do anything like this,” Angela Hewlett, the infectious-disease specialist who directs the hospital’s COVID-19 team, told me. “We are on an absolutely catastrophic path.”https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/11/americas-best-prepared-hospital-nearly-overwhelmed/617156/

[Winehole23]

Perhaps no hospital in the United States was better prepared for a pandemic than the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha.


After the SARS outbreak of 2003, its staff began specifically preparing for emerging infections. The center has the nation’s only federal quarantine facility and its largest biocontainment unit, which cared for airlifted Ebola patients in 2014. The people on staff had detailed pandemic plans. They ran drills. Ron Klain, who was President Barack Obama’s “Ebola czar” and will be Joe Biden’s chief of staff in the White House, once told me that UNMC is “arguably the best in the country” at handling dangerous and unusual diseases. There’s a reason many of the Americans who were airlifted from the Diamond Princess cruise ship in February (https://www.unmc.edu/news.cfm?match=25151) were sent to UNMC.

The researchers, from the University of California, Los Angeles, University of California, San Francisco, Johns Hopkins University, Boston University and Wake Forest University School of Law, found that lifting state moratoriums and allowing eviction proceedings to continue caused as many as 433,700 excess cases of Covid-19 (https://www.cnbc.com/coronavirus/) and 10,700 additional deaths in the U.S. between March and September.https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/27/evictions-have-led-to-hundreds-of-thousands-of-extra-covid-cases-.html

That would be true if I said only countries that suppress information do well on a world stage. You struggle with reading comprehension.

Ignorance means dipshits can simply ignore the lack of information and leave China out of the COVID discussion altogether. It worked.

We were saying no way just a few months ago. We were also saying we would hit 2k a day in mid December. The fact that all of that was a huge undercount plus the conservative IMHE saying nearly 500k by March tells me that we will pass that Spanish Flu mark or at least get really close.

Plus I forgot to factor in all the COVID truthers and anti-vaxxers that won't take these vaccines. Makes you think we'll run right past the US Spanish flu death count. Though you gotta wonder if that was a massive undercount given how much more deadly 1918 H1N1 was worldwide.

The oligarchy is doing fantastically, immune from health and economic pain Of The People.

The oligarchy has paid for weakening American and govt by division, polarization, propaganda on all the social issues used to divide (God, Gays, Guns, Race, Abortion) with the resulting loss of trust in institutions and INCREASE in the wealth from power for the oligarchy, as was their goal.

As in 2009, the oligarchy's vultures will buy up distressed Capital (property) as owners/borrowers go tits up.

Labor of course is even more distressed and will be thankful for whatever decreasingly minimal crumbs the Capitalists let them have.

iow, USA isn't a failed state, a shit hole, a declining society by accident or by natural forces, but from a strategy by the oligarchy to enrich and empower itself to the detriment of any opposing, countervailing power, like Unions or the government.
