    Newly-released data suggests that 99% of the new COVID deaths reported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) may primarily be attributed to other causes.

    Of the 324 COVID deaths reported in the last week - the week that ended August 19 - by the CDC, fewer than 2% of those cases (1.7%) actually attributed the primary cause of death to COVID-19.

    Different regions reported slight variations in that rate - in New York, for example, 2.1% of reported cases showed COVID-19 as the primary cause of death. The rate hovered right at 2% for Tennessee and North Carolina, and ticked up slightly to 2.4% in Washington.

    The highest rates were in Florida and Maryland, where COVID-19 was listed as the primary cause of death in 3.4% of the reported cases.

    This new data comes as COVID cases nationwide have seen recent upticks, prompting Morris-Brown College in Atlanta to reinstitute mask mandates and other mitigation measures despite having no positive cases on campus at the time.

    Similar measures were put into place at Lionsgate Films studio in California, where there had been a few positive cases. Employees were told to monitor their symptoms, and will be subject to temperature checks and other mitigation requirements in addition to face masks while they are present in the building.

    Preparation for colder weather and a potential surge in new cases has also led President Joe Biden to announce plans to fund a new COVID vaccine.

    "I signed off this morning on a proposal we have to present to Congress a request for additional funding for a new vaccine that is necessary, that works," Biden said last week while visiting Lake Tahoe. "Tentatively it is recommended that it will likely be recommended everybody get it no matter whether they've gotten it before or not."

    White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has also spoken on the topic, promising that the Biden administration will be actively encouraging the American people to get the latest booster shot as it becomes available.

Considering the irrefutable fact that the Left /the Democratic Socialists, beginning in March of 2020, employed the repetitive use of the Covid Pandemic as a political cudgel to wrest a presidential election, where their candidate rarely left his basement, from a frightened and beaten down citizenry of this Representative Republic: What does your knowledge NOW, in hindsight, aid in your understanding of the motives of the Authoritarian Left?
  The "Left" cares about all Democratics, so it was imperative that we do whatever it took to elect a lifelong politician to become that Democratic Socialist to forever change US.
  Pandemics are serious business, where our leaders must use wisdom and practicable efforts of all that serve to protect the public from not only the pandemic, but these ignoble usurpers of the Left.
  I lost almost everything in the Covid Pandemic, and I want justice; a justice where only the truth prevails, and the rampant fraud that is now legend is remedied.
