Hmmmmm.....

Leveling off, huh?

No insane spike in deaths and some terrible 2nd wave that is going to be the end of the world?

The country gives a collective yawn and turns their attention from The Coomph and instead focuses on the fires raging in Minneapolis, and by election day this will be buried under dozens of new stories and they won't even remember the shutdown was a thing.

Nope, still going up briskly everywhere but Alaska, Hawaii, Montana, and Vermont. And of those only Hawaii and Montana really look like it's almost leveled off (not adding new cases every day to the current total).

My relationship with the First Nations is pretty tenuous. I might have mentioned that after I graduated, the very first interview I had for my very first real full time job was at the Navajo reservation hospital in Ganado. I did turn down the job because they wanted a 5 year commitment on the reservation, and it was so different and unimaginable to me that I wasn't sure I had 5 years in me.

But that sparked a lifelong curiosity. I always want to know more.

And I'm sorry to know that people are struggling there and on many reservations with COIVD-19.

There are so many historic and current-day injustices against the First Nations. It would take a lifetime to even right one of them. That's why I still stand in awe of the Canadian legal system, and the creation of Nunavut.

I find that unless you know Native Americans or First Nations or are part Native American or First Nations, that most people don't.

We're a less visible minority down there than in Canada.

Don't I know about the historic and current day injustices. I grew up with so many historical stories from the US.

Canada's not perfect but at least Ottawa tries and I do give them credit for that. Ottawa right now is working on deals to help on reservations across Canada.

SWEDEN IS #1!

In new deaths per day per million, that is!

It's a position to be proud of, I'm sure.

But, not to worry: Brazil (another "do nothing" nation) is pulling up fast and making a strong bid to take the lead!
