    Trump's incompetence cost hundreds of thousands of lives, says own Pandemic coordinator

    What does it matter? Its not like the lockdown fascists have outperformed. CA got so tired of lockdown bullshit without and discernable benefit relative to many other states that Gavin Newsom is worried about losing his job in a recall. And we are the big lib state and people loved the guy...

    The race between COVID vaccines and emerging variants

    by the way... I am not arguing that viral load does not matter. I am stating they don't know... for sure... in part because the test they use is not designed to find viable virus. So how they hell could then know without a better test.

    The race between COVID vaccines and emerging variants

    I was wondering how they knew that viral load equals more spread .. considering the test does not even know if the virus is still viable. I thought perhaps there were new findings... nope....They still do not really know. see my underline below of that sentence in the study below...

    The Border Crisis on Steroids

    This may have been said before... but I hear a medical crisis is looming. Where are the Hollywood humanitarians? Where are the Et DNC Trolls now... kids in cages and all that?

    Team Trump Pushes CDC to Revise Down Its COVID Death Counts

    while I am not condoning pressuring the CDC... I challenge the idea that hiding the healthy from the virus was ever a good strategy. Or that hiding the healthy saves overall harm. (as long as there are hospital beds.) We see many countries which practiced hiding are now having to lockdown...

    52% Tax Rate in NYC... passes NY Senate...

    I am so stoked that so many wealthy will remain NYC residents and pay their new fair share. (not that they were not paying a ton already.) This should be great for tax collection numbers. ------------------- "New York City's ultra-high earners will soon have to pay a top marginal income tax...

    The race between COVID vaccines and emerging variants

    What do you mean by higher viral load? Are you now claiming that higher viral load makes someone more susceptible to spreading the virus?

    Amazon workers vote against union at Alabama warehouse

    laughing... you are correct... I seem to have two tracks... right now... here at ET... in part because this is my distraction while trading... (covid and immigration) I did post about the vix shooting up as my index positions were going up. But I deleted the post. I have learned to never...

    Amazon workers vote against union at Alabama warehouse

    When you bring in a 1.2 million potential laborers a year and millions more illegal aliens who are here to work... Yet... you want unions to regain power against private companies? How fucked up is your thinking? How fucked up are your votes? I do not understand how you all can't reconcile...

    Canada’s covid-19 second wave is a humbling moment after a summer of bragging

    That is an amazing statistic that seems to explain a lot of the Canadians crazies here at elitetrader.

    I could have written a pretty funny response... imo. But I much prefer to avoid divorce.

    How to lose 20 Billion in 2 days

    My understanding is if you can't pay... they can't put in in jail. If you can pay, but don't, then you have to be concerned about the types of financial and criminal penalties you could face.

    In the Coronavirus Fight in Scandinavia, Sweden Stands Apart

    It was a suggestion. Not a mandate. distancing works. it is based on data. Covid is spread by the symptomatic... the higher the viral the more likely the risk. Covid is spread mostly if not entirely via droplets and exposure over time. Droplets which fall to the ground after a few meters...

    Europe - Lockdowns are Back

    I read a few articles in which the "experts" expressed concern that at least some of the vaccines in Europe might not protect as well against some of variants. So I wondered if your variants of concern differ for different experts. Either way... its not a big deal for me... I am simply...

    How to lose 20 Billion in 2 days

    I think there may be a massive echo from this... So many markets that I watch are maintenance trading right now. I sort of envision massive funds with their hands on the sell buttons as they wait for their prime brokers to tell them to deleverage. I envision the prime brokers trying to find...

    Europe - Lockdowns are Back

    Authoritarian rulers n Germany? Maybe they should be sure their vaccines will protect against their variants before they repeat failed lockdowns. Their virus and deaths per day graphs while moving up are significantly below their peaks...

    DeSantis for the win

    So what... that does prove your conjecture... Nobody has argued that the virus did not spread in Florida once it got there.

    DeSantis for the win

    This is not an unusual finding even it is based on modeling. I think anywhere you would have masses of people coming in from diverse place and congregating near each other... particularly at times being indoors... you would be at risk of spread. That is of course how viruses spread.
