Bloomberg: Russia Suffers Deadliest September Since World War II With Covid Untamed
(Bloomberg) -- Russia suffered its deadliest September since World War II, according to figures published Friday, even before the peak of its current wave of the Covid-19 pandemic forced authorities to order non-working days for the first week of November.
There were 44,265 deaths associated with the virus last month, bringing the pandemic’s total to nearly half a million, according to Federal Statistics Service data published late Friday.
That contributed to the highest number of September fatalities since the war, said Alexei Raksha, a demographer who left the agency last year after a dispute over its coronavirus numbers.
The situation is poised to get worse after record numbers of cases in recent weeks, leading President Vladimir Putin to declare days off nationwide.
Widespread distrust of the government has hindered attempts to get people to use locally developed vaccines.

"What do you call a city where 99.7 percent of adults over the age of 18 (as registered in the last census) are fully vaccinated but now fighting one of the highest Covid-19 infection rate in their nation? You call it Waterford, Ireland."
People, who are immuno-compromised due to cancer, cancer treatment, diabetes, high blood pressure or advanced age such that they are immobile and in a old folks home, are at high risk. It is the nature of systems and entropy. It can be fought and slowed years beforehand, but not stopped.
The virus came from Wuhan. Escaped or released, it is hard to know. Engineering or naturally mutated, you need the right degree probably to know. China act awfully suspicious. You can't sue a sovereign state unless they allow it. China will not allow it. Washington can do shit. J0e cannot get center stage at the G20. He was at the tail end of the stage. By some miracle, he did not totter off the edge.
All I know s a person does not what to be overweight or have diabetes or hypertension. People can do something about it most of the time.
People in cancer wards and senior citizen homes need masks (minor 10% benefit), socially distance (no data to back up the 6 feet) and probably vax.
Anything else will just lead to war as the people who eschewed logistics and tech, rule us into a mess leading to war.
