“How could we allow this in the United States to happen?” said Dr. Ali Mokdad, a professor at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington in Seattle, USA Today reported. “This is unacceptable by any standards.”

Mokdad said the coronavirus mortality rates in North Dakota and South Dakota are similar to those he’d expect from a war-torn nation, not the United States, according to the publication.

Gov. Doug Burgum of North Dakota on Friday announced new restrictions intended to curb the spread of coronavirus in the state, including a mask mandate.

“Our situation has changed, and we must change with it,” Burgum said.

But at least one North Dakota sheriff says he won’t be enforcing the mandate.

"The state has 2.035 coronavirus deaths per day per 100,000 people", Dr. Eric Feigl-Ding of the Federation of American Scientists wrote on Twitter this week.

Yesterday it was 0.918 per 100,000.

N, Dakota has a population of only 761K.

A depopulated N Dakota would be a huge BUY! opportunity for investors seeking long-term yield!

WHY DO YOU HATE OPPORTUNITY! ?


Exactly! And it will be a waterfront property in less than 2 years! Ask Al Gore if you don't believe me.

WTF is this crap? According to https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/, ND has 1000 deaths/1M, SD has about 730/1M population. Meanwhile, NJ and NY have ca. 1700-1900 newly minted Biden voters/1M population. Why the journalistic verbal diarrhea and panic??? Not-locked-down Sweden has ca. 650 dead/1M. Seems that journalwhores are pulling numbers out of their over-sized asses.

A 2 week lockdown should fix it.

absolutely, just like it did in March and April. We should also all wear diapers so we don't shit ourselves, and condoms so we don't get someone pregnant acidentally.

It's propaganda

The Smith-Mundt Act was repealed under Obama, not that it mattered.

10 years ago, I would have asked you if we all found those weapons of mass destruction yet in Iraq. Today - find that Russian collusion yet? This is, purely, propaganda. We have no news in the United States. All we have is the ability to talk to one another, and they are working very hard to make that impossible. Remember, enforce social distancing, wear a mask, and also, you should only use Facebook and Twitter to talk to other people. They are authoritative sources after all.

Not only that, but my home state of NJ accomplished that number by May! Fucking rookies.

there is Russian collusion, but Clinton and Biden are the ones colluding. Uranium deal and payoff by Moscow mayor's wife are pretty well documented

80% of Covid deaths in North Dakota are over 80 years old.
Two years past the average life expectancy.
That could be a new salutation: "May you live long enough to die of Covid my friend!"

Apparently the death toll in California, for under 18, from this terrifying plague is.........two.
Oh, the humanity!! No wonder Governor Awesome had to shut the schools back down.

I think playing the board game Monopoly has a death rate of 1000 per million.
