May as well forget it. People are generally too uneducated and dependent on others to do anything useful with truth.

As a TN resident I can't agree more

They will have lots of them. Made of stone. About two feet tall, two feet wide, maybe 6 inches thick. Engraved with names and dates

Covid isnt racist enough.
droidgee
And when will that statue be torn down?
FajitaPrinceofAllMexicans
Apparently never since it's apart of their history now.
skipweasel
You're assuming it's going to have a discernible end.
saganworshipper
It's like herpes... it's forever.

Or influenza, which we are still getting shots for, despite it being 100+ years since that pandemic happened.

They seem to be making sure get the virus will never die out…

how about also teaching critical virus theory to set the record straight

There may not be anyone left to learn the history at this rate.

The South will rise again (in covid numbers)

Ha! Jokes on you, with the way this is going, it’ll never be over

That’s oppressing people that don’t believe in covid…duhhh
Lovingimpaler
Missouri, Florida, and Texas (among others) over there fucking about and finding out.
Manhoarder
The "pandemic" may be over but covid never left, it just mutated so hard due to negligence that it now is part of the flu rotation in many parts of the world. This isn't even the first time covid struck us, just the specific variant sars19. It's still shit af tho, I had covid 3 weeks ago and it fucked me up for 2 weeks.
Kuro1795
Don't forget that vaccinated people can also get covid.
Dots77
Yeah, who'd want statues erected to unpleasant historical events.
Gvilain
So like plague columns? Just be honest, US wants those sweet statues we got in Europe

Shoulda moved Bill “Bojangles” Robinson from Jackson Ward and put him up there

It is on pace to last longer than the confederacy .
saganworshipper
Easily.
CoarseAndSalty
At this rate it will kill significantly more Americans than the Civil War.
arfysdad
Pretty much there. 620,000 CW deaths, 624,000 covid deaths and counting.
TheDayTheBrainStoodStill
Fortunately for the GOP as far as they're concerned COVID has barely killed more people than the flu. See, you just have to never admit it!
CoarseAndSalty
To be fair, those people really struggle to count higher than however many fingers they have left.
Alittleupsettobehonest
Sadly it's not just the south. It's every state
FurtiveGlancer
It's mainly rural/small-town USA

Washington state is at 70% vaccinated, my friend.
ACMech
I think CA and NY are the top 2 states for deaths
basiccricket8444
I mean, they are the most densely populated and were hit first. Then there's places like south Dakota and Tennessee
ILikeCuteGifsAndICannotLie
Not really. Oregon has and is doing very well
LanceTex
About the only thing we've done right lately... anarchists, arsonists, homeless camps.
ILikeCuteGifsAndICannotLie
Oh we are fools medal winners there but our covid rate has been about as good as you’re going to get
saganworshipper
Very true. Every state has a Redneckistan.

Covid didn't surrender, and has in fact adapted more in the last year than the south seems to have in 150.
dakuan
It may last longer than the confederacy as well
theawake
Oh, I don't think there's any doubt. Anti-maskers are more stubborn than southerners.

The US south has 100 million people and is one of most diverse place in the country.

You're making the assumption of thinking I care. Do you know how jokes work...?
Tyanet
Because of unvaccinated people, COVID is gonna end up being around longer than the confederacy too.
okeedokeee
COVID will not be eradicated for a long, long time.
ProjectDA
nazis and confederates werent fully eradicated either. just their power and numbers reduced.
BloodDonor
The UK officially expects another 60-150k new deaths because of abandoning covid-19 precautions

As long as they're all tories....

Forever. It's already effectively endemic. https://www.gavi.org/vaccineswork/covid-19-effectively-already-endemic
RyanHaynes
Question. Why didn't this happen with SARS-CoV-1?
LicensedAdHominem
Testing and quarantines. As far as I remember, 1 was most infectious when one already showed serious symptoms, so very easy to spot.
Tesseract09
Which is awkward for countries that have been eliminating it, as people keep bringing it back in.
haydentempest3000
Just as a heads up its a corona virus which is a type that constantly mutates. It will behave in a similar way to influenza in that it....

Most prevalent variant. Similar to how we vaccine for one type of flu but others are constantly around. No amount of vaccines will change...

That, its part of the biosphere and here to stay. Best we can do is adapt where we can. But its not the unvaccinated peoples fault that it..

Well, to be fair, they won't put up statues to it unless it loses. So it will be a while.

I scrolled back only to upvote. Well said.

imma piss myself laughing if the pandemic lasts longer than the confederacy
flacoloco
it will. with mutations and playing partisan politics with healthcare

I won't be surprised. We're almost halfway there if you count from late 2019.

I thought you said it would be "a white." I guess that would have worked too.

theshinobi23
Yeah, but they're losing to it, which makes it more like the Union than the Confederacy.
BabyInAStraitJacket
So you're saying whatever's left of Florida will erect a statue of DeSantis to celebrate their "victory" against northern covid aggression?
theshinobi23
Trump, Raphael Cruz, Turtleman, Boebidiot...probably some rando QAnon bs...wouldn't put it past them to erect statues in honor of all of it.
theshinobi23
We're approaching the number of deaths in the Civil War, too:
RuskRiot
We passed 620k deaths not too long ago
theshinobi23
Worldometer has us at 624k, but CDC says 606k:
