It s not only coronavirus cases that are rising. Now covid deaths are, too.

For weeks this summer, it was a seeming paradox of the coronavirus pandemic: cases in the United States were rising but deaths were falling.

To the Trump administration, this was evidence that its strategy for combating covid-19 was working. To medical experts, it was only a matter of time before the trajectory changed.

And now it has. Nationwide, deaths have begun to rise again. In some of the worst-hit states, especially across the South and the West, new death records are being set daily. As a virus-scarred summer wears on, public health specialists say the numbers are almost certain to continue to climb.

Hooray! That’s my imitation of a left-winger. Whether this factoid is true or not, who knows. Perhaps we’ll know in a month or so, when one hopes more definitive numbers will come out. If it is true, that’s bad, and not just because it’s bad for my side.
