OH is second in the nation for per capita Covid deaths this past week.

Apparently we're the 8th least vaccinated state.

94% of those hospitalized or dead from Covid in Ohio are/were unvaccinated (not sure on the time period for this data).

Have had to get back to Akron probably 8 times since June 2019... and wife & I had convos that we were pretty shocked about the casualness and lack of precaution we saw.. but the data was surprisingly normal.. until recently
Lots of family back home positive since Thanksgiving

PS.. ahh, the differentiation between "FROM" and "WITH" Covid rears it's head

SCOTUS absolutely confirmed my hypothesis.. there is no person/firm/entity/source that we can trust.. cuz they were making up shit (data/stats/numbers) like it was MSM
Today Justice Sotomayor said Omicron is “just as deadly to the unvaccinated” as Delta WUT??

My township's all time weekly cases was 66 back in 2020.. don't remember # dead...
The last 7 days we were at 225.. and no one died

The immense irony of today... 2 of the lawyers presenting this case to SCOTUS were tested as positive (yet still presented).. both are fully vaxxed.. You can't make this stuff up

"in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods"

Expect this to keep going up, the little guys are getting crushed by rising cost of goods, materials and other operational costs and we're hemorrhaging employees. We haven't hit our budgeted gross in 6-8 months and last month we missed it by 7 points. This is not sustainable.

We're pretty screwed IMO. You can see the demoralization in everyone's face. It's not a matter of if but when.

The administration just announced a plan to help small and mid size meat processors compete against the “Big 4” . I’m dubious I’ve seen these small and medium processors do this before ..after these “programs” federal or state or local these companies begun as family or cooperative business end up in the hands of profiteers who maximize the money from “programs” and when it runs out .. the facilities sit closed or if the Big 4 finds them useful they purchase them to get a footprint in a community where on their own they would not have got a facility approved.

Our company was a locally family owned business that had been here for about 100 years. They sold out to a company from California and took over in December. About a week afterward our payroll/time keeping program went down. It was supposed to be back up in two weeks but now they're saying at the end of the month or later. The warehouse suddenly became short on pickers and drivers. The program messed up and was sending double orders to some stores and cutting others. My gut feeling is that the new owners aren't interested in keeping the company open. The big wigs were supposed to be walking the stores and introducing themselves but we've seen no hide nor hair of them. I don't even know their names. Thankfully if worse comes to worse I'm OK but others are starting to sweat. Another thing I forgot to mention is the shrink due to shoplifting. The homeless know they can come in and take whatever they want and no one can do anything. All you can do is call nonexistent security on the intercom and hope that scares them off but they're wise to it. Our dairy section is what gets hit the hardest, the opioid addicts come in for their chocolate milk and yogurt drinks. I believe last month our dairy missed their gross by 10 points. The only department doing well is meat and they're burning out because they can't find cutters and almost everyone is working 7 days a week. It's really bad.

Our local unaffiliated hospital was sold last summer to people who own one other Michigan hospital. It’s a train wreck now ..fired all surgeons but the obgyn surgeon 4 colonoscopies were scheduled Friday were cancelled. Local tv got in facility by nurse..basically empty nurses crying etc. Automatic deposits haven’t shown up.Medicare/Medicaid/ Joint Comission basically decertified them. Luckily we have another hospital in town part of a regional catholic hospital group. People will be out of work and the governments will miss the $285,000 in property taxes.

I expect we're going to see mind-numbing barrage of "stats" in the next month when they break out the "from Covid" vs "with covid"
and the 75% that died with 4 or more comorbidities .. and whatever other data segregation the political hacks / MSM want to further confuse the shit out of us

The fact they've had this data for well over a year but only revealing it now wreaks...
