Here's a story on it but it's Fox so y'all might not like it.
https://news.yahoo.com/biden-administration-prioritizing-illegal-immigrants-142406790.htmlThe point is that the numbers are overwhelming and the controls against spreading the virus would be laughable if they weren't so deadly. Is anyone really going to tell me that everyone coming in is tested and all of them who test positive are quarantined in a hotel room under guard like they do it in New Zealand? Of course not. As far as I can see they are just being released and are being asked to quarantine when they get to where ever they are going, and that's all over the country.
Now this next story is Canada but it brings up a good point, well actually several including how difficult it is to keep travelers from spreading the virus around but two of the best points are that the tests often give false negatives and also in Canada you need another test at the end of your quarantine and I don't see anything saying that we're doing anything like that for those coming in on our border now.

And I agree that the people walking around outside were probably okay but with those numbers of people there had to be times when people outside of trust circles gathered indoors and spread the virus around too when they wouldn't have without the protests.
One bad thing about doing that is that after seeing the politically correct exceptions made at the expense of pandemic safety protocols, people look around and see the double standard and notice that ask themselves if they are the only ones expected to take this seriously?
If there's one thing Americans are good at, it's finding a reason to slack off.
Which brings me to the CDC director:
https://news.yahoo.com/cdc-walensky-says-fatigue-winning-170648593.htmlNow she is right on the money. It's finally good to have someone competent there. If there's one fault I can find in her, and it's not necessarily her fault really, it's just that I don't know if what she's saying is persuading the people who need to be persuaded. She's telling it exactly like it is. She's warning us. But some people are just too thick-headed to listen to reason, the governor of Texas among them.
Americans are looking for any and every reason to be lazy and complacent. The numbers coming down just a little bit is good enough for many of them. Biden being reckless with controlling Covid-19 and the variants coming across the border is good enough for some of them too. If the virus wasn't under control he wouldn't be opening us up like that would he?
Yeah I know y'all aren't having any of it but I'm just telling you a lot of people look at it and shake their heads and wonder what's the point. We can lockdown all we want and wear masks all we want but if we're just going to let hundreds of thousands of people in like this then it's fighting a losing battle. Again with the war comparison but it's like two flanks watching each other and as one starts to collapse the other gives up too. There are two flanks to the war on Covid-19. New Zealand knows it. Canada knows it. Hawaii knows it. Everyone knows it. But in our country half of the population is only willing to battle on one flank. Half on masks. Half on travel restrictions. And both the flanks instead of fighting the virus are determined to fight each other. That's no way to win a war.
