India’s Covid-19 Outbreak Spreads Through Rural Areas

The contagion is hitting towns and villages where resources are scant and people are skeptical of lockdown efforts. If unchecked, Indian infections could exceed those in the United States.

Under Pence, Politics Regularly Seeped Into the Coronavirus Task Force – The New York Times (politics before health and science and life)

At one point, Mr. Short directed Dr. Robert R. Redfield, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, to soften the agency’s recommendations to a meat processing company about safety steps, in part to placate the embattled industry. Mr. Short was also part of a small group, which included Kellyanne Conway, then a senior adviser to Mr. Trump, that pushed to change C.D.C. guidance on church reopenings.

Interviews with task force members, government public health officials and current and former White House officials show how public health considerations were sometimes at odds in the task force with the White House’s imperative for 2020: winning re-election on the basis of a strong economy.

Italy makes face masks mandatory as coronavirus cases surge

Italy on Wednesday made it mandatory to wear face masks outdoors, aiming to prevent a second wave of the coronavirus.

The decision comes as new infections jumped to the highest daily tally since April.

Several Italian regions had already made face masks mandatory. On Wednesday, the cabinet also approved a decree to extend the COVID-19 state of emergency to January 31.

On Tuesday, authorities reported 3,678 cases in the last 24 hours. Health minister Roberto Speranza ordered compulsory testing on travellers from the United Kingdom, Belgium, the Netherlands and the Czech Republic.

Italy has the second highest COVID death toll in Europe after Britain, with 36,061 deaths since the outbreak flared in February, according to official data. However, it is recording far fewer daily cases than other large European countries.

Open Thread | There Was A Vice-Presidential Debate

And, Senator Harris did well against lying Race Bannon.

Pence is epitome  of White Male Mediocrity failing up.😒

 

Pence was on defense and looked uncomfortable while displaying once more Republicans’ lack of respect for women. Harris was polished and got in long, specific policy statements delivered direct to camera. A win for Democrats.

Mike Pence’s constant violation of time limits is a bad look. Reinforces the belief that this administration flouts the rules. #VPDebate

We all know those men. We work with them, for them and have kicked their ass to the curb when we regrettably married them. @KamalaHarris #VPDebate #BidenHarris2020 https://t.co/wdwHF6HRJD

I’ve known so many Mike Pences in the Republican Party. Small time, phony, can’t deal with women, ambitious but not talented. I tried to avoid them, didn’t work for them, but they were everywhere. He will be crushed by women. @VP

I don’t think VP Pence’s mansplaining and over-talking is doing a lot to narrow the gender gap, unless it is also turning off more men as well.
