My usual late nite ramblings and research summaries. Read the one on masks at the end. It is long but very revealing.

Just another day in paradise, living under the autocracy and CV-19 obsessed regime that is the Walz administration. Yesterday we were supposedly blessed with some easing of his orders, as…

The Upper Midwest states pretty much had a surge over the same time frame.

A few research summaries and observations.

An updated set of active cases charts reflects a continued tracing of a classic epidemic curve in Minnesota. Mitigation attempts have no significant impact.

Germany not only isn't immune from the epidemic, but offers a stellar example of how well masking is working, and another chart shows how accurate the Danish mask study was.

Contrary to certain claims by our primary non-leader, Minnesota's data is not good or transparent.

Is Minnesota padding the CV-19 death totals by including someone with a positive test as far back as 90 days before death?

A couple of studies indicate why masks are unlikely to be effective in preventing widespread community transmission.

Another bang-up start to the week, as I know you just can't wait for more research summaries!

Some charts help illustrate the reduced seriousness of most hospitalizations.

Listening to a bunch of briefings by the state just reinforces what a group of incompetent weasels we have leading our epidemic response.

Video of the presentation on the epidemic is now available.

I don't know how much clearer it could be that the general population has a very, very small risk from CV-19.

Since the state is hiding recent modeling work, if it is even being done, let's go way back and review the last work product we saw.
