anti-immigration people. He has been a disaster.
Boris is a complete moron - he was all for herd immunity until he caught it. Like Killa Kon, he is responsible for the mess in Britain. In a fair world they would all be whipped in public and banished.

Perhaps it explains the tremendous fall surge. California recently had 56,000+ cases in one day. .... And while this strain is more infectious, it hasn't been shown to be more virulent. Important to keep things in perspective.
