Sunday US COVID News
“Sunday, the country reported 213,875 new confirmed cases and 2,254 deaths.” John Hopkins University
“SUPER SPREADER”
“The two chambers of the Arizona state legislature will suspend their work this week after former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani tested positive for the coronavirus less than a week after spending hours testifying in front of Republican legislators in a futile bid to overturn the state’s election results. President Trump tweeted that Giuliani tested positive for the virus Sunday, and reports said he is receiving treatment at a Washington-area hospital. Giuliani is Trump’s lead legal strategist in a series of cases the president has lost in court.” The Hill
“Giuliani has repeatedly disregarded public health guidelines, appearing maskless in state capitols, hotel ballrooms and at indoor news conferences in recent weeks. At many of the events, most of the other people in the indoor settings were also not wearing masks. At some of those events, Giuliani was spotted shaking hands, hugging and taking pictures with people while not wearing a mask. He was most recently at the Georgia Capitol in Atlanta on Thursday to attend a Georgia state Senate hearing on the November election. Last month, Giuliani's son, Andrew, who is a White House staffer, tested positive for Covid-19 after attending a Trump campaign legal team news conference with his father in Washington, DC.” CNN
THE FUTURE
“Fauci's Timeline for When He Thinks America Will Beat COVID :
The U.S. COVID-19 outbreak will ‘get worse before it gets better’ and the country won't see ‘dramatic changes’ until the third quarter of next year, Dr. Anthony Fauci told Newsweek. The country ‘never got out of the first wave’ of the COVID-19 outbreak, Fauci explained: ‘I don't even talk in waves anymore [when describing the outbreak]. I see it more like a high background with different surges super-imposed upon it, as opposed to a wave that comes and goes. If people take the vaccine, we could go a long way to really diminishing dramatically [in cases] as we get into the second and third quarter of 2021. Then I think you'll start to see a dramatic diminishing of cases.’"
“A CDC panel this week agreed how Covid-19 vaccines should be distributed but it is unclear when they will be available in the U.S.” NBC News

On the home scene, it was just another peaceful Sunday at home.
My husband fixed a couple of things around the house. And I unboxed some more Christmas ornaments for the tree. We continue to keep life normal inside the sanctuary of our home.
The guy in the photo above is new for 2020.
Thank goodness for home deliveries!!!
Push a button & he sings “I want a hippopotamus for Christmas”.
