Critical childhood vaccinations for hepatitis, measles, whooping cough and other diseases also declined significantly, a trend that had already begun to worry pediatricians earlier in the pandemic. Of particular concern, measles vaccinations fell 73 percent in mid-April and were still down 36 percent at the end of June.

Gableman gets to bottom of WI election mess
Be afraid, Democrats. Be very afraid
David Shor started modeling elections in 2008, when he was a 20-something blogger, and he proved good at it. … Now he’s scared. … “We’re screwed in the Senate,” he told me. Only he didn’t use the word screwed. … Shor’s model suggests they’ll lose a seat, and so the Senate. But it’s 2024 where things get very grim for them. ... Shor’s model predicts they’ll lose seven seats.
This might be the high-water mark of power they’ll have for the next decade. — Ezra Klein, NY Times.

I posted on this blog back in March that the lockdown measures proposed at that time we’re going to far outweigh the cost of the virus itself and I’m sad to report that I am correct– in spades! This is going to go down as some of the worst policy decisions in human history. And sadly, policy-makers are doubling down with their half-baked mandates and continued lockdowns perpetuating the costs.
