I’m so old I remember when Joe Biden said if he was elected he would “crush” the COVID-19 virus. All the media hacks, including those on Faux News said too because of their Trump hatred. Other Democrat communists like Ron Klain and Kamala Harris made similar declarations. Yet, here we are, days before the start of 2022, the US has set a daily cOVID-19 infection record of 441,278 of new infection as Joe Biden vacations at his beach house in Delaware. I guess Biden lied about the crushing the virus too? Imagine my surprise.
The U.S. on Tuesday set a single-day record of new COVID-19 infections, with 441,278 new cases, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Infection.
The numbers surpass the previous high of about 290,000 cases reported on Dec. 20. That nearly passed the previous daily record of 294,015 set last January, before vaccines were widely available.
The seven-day moving average is now more than 240,000 cases a day.

The record case number represents the grim reality of the omicron variant, which has proven to be the most transmissible strain of the novel coronavirus the U.S. has seen since the pandemic began.
