Texas appeals for outside aid because of Covid.

Texas appeals for outside aid because of ocld weather.

Texas appeals for outside aid because of a hurricane.

Texas appeals for outside aid because of drought.

and.........

Texas wants to secede because it "can go it alone".

It's hardly only the USA. France especially, the UK ...

Even Oz is now screwed. We KNOW that identified
cases are always about ten times less than the
number of ACTUAL cases.

Damned if you lockdown, damned if you don't.
The virus doesn't give a shit, it'll find
ways to exploit every niche and environment.
That's what viruses do for a living.

Oh yea .. BOOSTERS FOR *ALL* - Right NOW !
Screw that "vulnerable" bullshit, EVERYBODY
is vulnerable to Delta and Lambda. If you
had Pfizer, boost with Moderna and vice versa.
