1. And the worst of it, is that tax funds pay for the testing, patient care and the vaccines.

So maybe the counties with high test rates, and anti-deficit Republican leadership need to see the costs they are creating with the anti-mask and anti-vaccine rhetoric and Executive Orders and mandates.

edit: add the HHS guidelines. https://www.hhs.gov/coronavirus/cares-act-provider-relief-fund/for-patients/index.html

ps,
I'm just going to throw in what might seem like a non sequitur. All this COVID bullshit does not ever overshadow the deep outrage that I feel against our conservatives and Republicans and their media outlets concerning not only the refusal to acknowledge our violent and racist history but are continuing the violence against people of color and people of non Christian religions.

The violence against African Americans in particular haunts me every time I read any day's news offerings, because I know I will read of another purely race based attack or death.

But that is what keeps me wanting to stay in the fight so to speak, because I know it can be overcome and for that to happen we cannot surrender.
