Covid deniers, anti-maskers, and vaccine refuseniks. Walsh was communications director for the horrible U.S. Rep. Vicky Hartzler.

Cobb County is in a weird place, as theyāve traditionally been a conservative stronghold, but is now leaning blueā¦ still, lots of leadership positions are still held by the old guardā¦ it was like that where I live until recently.

From a form letter to PUA recipients by the California Employment Development Department:
Self-Employment and Employment Documentation
Due to new federal rules affecting your PUA claim, you are required to provide documentation that shows that you were, or planned to be, self-employed or employed at some point during the calendar year before the beginning of your PUA claim. If you have not already provided documentation, we will notify you when it is time to complete this requirement.
Important: You are required to provide this documentation even if you have returned to work and are no longer seeking PUA benefits.
If you do not submit documentation that shows you were employed, self-employed, or planning to be employed or self-employed, you may be disqualified from receiving PUA benefits and be required to repay the benefits you received on your PUA claim
So, like buskers who received benefits during the last 18 months because they filed taxes, how is this supposed to work? Do they file a letter they got from a future donor?
āDear Busker, please let this email inform you of my intention to place a dollar in your guitar case at the corner of xxx and xxx streets, on such and such a dateā¦ā

Alabama doctors also said theyāre seeing more young patients hospitalized with COVID-19 than beforeāand more of them are dying. Doctors attribute this to the hypertransmissible and potentially more dangerous delta coronavirus variant. The stateās number of pediatric COVID-19 patients currently hospitalized is higher than it has ever been in the pandemic, a record being set right before the start of a new school year.
In a state where the very act of trying to suppress the spread of this disease may be a criminal offense. They will wind up with kids either being shipped all over the country for care, or sending them home to die. I just canāt even begin to understand the mindset at work here.

Abbot lost Schools in Texas can now mandate masks. The TX Supreme Court refused to hear Abbot/Paxton petition to force the schools that instituted mask mandates to stop. I am so pleased. The TEA will not be enforcing the governorās ban on mask mandates āfor now.ā This makes me hopeful for vaccine mandates.

If North Texas starts running out of ICU beds, doctors may have to consider coronavirus vaccination status as a factor in who gets priority careāa situation health officials hope to avoid but worry is becoming increasingly likelyāwith the vaccinated potentially being prioritized for treatment on the assumption that theyāre more likely to survive.

A total of 1,271 new COVID-19 hospitalizations (0.17 per 100,000 person-days) occurred among fully vaccinated adults, compared with 7,308 (2.03 per 100,000 person-days) among unvaccinated adults
Unvaxxed face a risk of illness severe enough to require hospitalization that is 13x that of vaccinated individuals
But why let facts get in the way?
Edit: Vox did a pretty good analysis and explainer of this and other updates on vaccine efficacy:
