The Times Took an Odd Angle on UK COVID
Noted the effect of not reopening instead of the surge
For the love of all that is holy, the New York Times might become the cause of my first stroke, given a recent inexplicable headline.
The cause of my exaggerated taking of offense reads: “England’s delayed reopening is a blow to culture and nightlife.”
Seriously?
Is Leisure the top priority right now?
All cases of COVID-19 in the United Kingdom are from the Delta variant of SARS-CoV 2, the virus that causes COVID-19.
Despite high levels of vaccination, they have a terrible surge.
Allow me to address our Gray Lady — it has been a tough year all around. Who doesn’t miss dinner and a show? I know I certainly do.
Another fact to share might have been that the Delta-variant in the US doubles every two weeks. Or that it’s 10% of US cases right now. But we understand your pain. I think that we do.
