The COVID-19 situation has been surreal for me. But the Resurgent does well to point out the reason for this change in the death count. Christians especially need to be sympathetic with those who suffer.

Thanks for digging deeper into the facts behind the seemingly politically motivated stories we hear about so often. You save me lots of time on a daily basis. I've gotten to the point that I really trust the research you do, though sometimes, if I have time, I still read the background information to learn more of the twist. It's easy to report the same data in different ways to direct an audience to lean one way of the other, using the 'half full or half empty' principle (I'm sure there's a literary or technical term for that). Thanks again Erick, you really are a great source of information, ideas, reporting and commentary. Maybe someday, soon hopefully, we can get back to Bourbon reviews!! I'm looking forward to being able to come out to one of your events. Best regards, and stay safe.

I am ready for life to return to normal.

Thanks for this. People on both sides may jump to the conspiracy theory, but at least you've provided a clarification to throw at them once they've settled down enough to listen.

A lot of them are not going to listen unfortunately.

Gonna bet that Laura Ingraham will not be as understanding as you on this change!

I suspect a lot of people won't. That's unfortunate. There really are things to get upset about, but this is not one of them.
