Notre Dame's Zero Hospitalizations
00:04:19
|
|
| For COVID, Notre Dame University of North Carolina and Illinois State. | |
| This was by September 9. Not one hospitalization. | |
| Nationwide, hospitalizations are down 16% just from September 1st, 50% since July 23rd. | |
| And you still can't go into a nail salon in California, or at least we're in Los Angeles. | |
| Arizona's rolling seven-day average has more than doubled in the last two weeks, mostly in the Tucson area around the University of Arizona. | |
| Yet hospitalizations statewide have been flat and are about the same as in early April. | |
| Only 122 intensive care beds in the state are occupied by COVID patients. | |
| Compared to 970 at the peak two months ago. | |
| You hear that? | |
| One ninth. | |
| One ninth of the ICU beds are used as compared to two months ago. | |
| So why are there lockdowns? | |
| Really, why are there? | |
| It's not an easy question to answer. | |
| It's a combination of fools, power hunger, desire to smash Trump's economy. | |
| It's a very complex sort of ingredients. | |
| They make a very interesting point here at the Wall Street Journal. | |
| Reopening college campuses for in-person classes may keep older generations safer. | |
| And perhaps limit a third wave. | |
| Yes. | |
| Because they get together kids, they bring home COVID, and parents or grandparents can get infected. | |
| But if the kids are off to college, they're not infecting anybody. | |
| Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data show per capita hospitalizations. | |
| Declined 70% among those 65 and older in the week ending September 12th, the latest data. | |
| From the week ending July 25th, among 18 to 29-year-olds, per capita hospitalizations have fallen 77%. | |
| Trends could change, but there's no reason so far to panic over COVID on campus. | |
| It's one of the reasons I am proud to be a conservative. | |
| At the New York Times, there is just hysteria and mendacity. | |
| At the Wall Street Journal, there is a love of truth and no hysteria. | |
| Oh, some of you will remember, if you're a long-time listener, this is a little dark, what I'm about to say. | |
| I'm gonna say it anyway. | |
| When I think about, you know, let's say being on a plane that for whatever reason was going down, the thing that I fear the most is the people screaming. | |
| One of the noble things of the human being is the ability to control oneself. | |
| And that's not been taught. | |
| Secular age. | |
| Because you don't work on yourself. | |
| You work on society. | |
| You don't work on yourself. | |
| So people panic so easily. | |
| I thought I wish I had a video of this girl who saw me without a mask outside. | |
| And, you know, she made a point. | |
| She exaggeratedly walked around me rather than by me with her Black Lives Matter mask. | |

Alas, Circled Paths

|
| Folks, I want you to know I would pay serious money to have her as a guest on this show. | |
| There are so many things I'd want to ask her. | |
| But alas! | |
| Our paths, well, I can't say they crossed. | |
| I was circled, not crossed. | |
