Sept. 11, 2001: On this day, and a few following days, 3,000 people died in an attack on this country. The country united and eventually killed the people responsible for this attack.

Sept. 11, 2021: On this day, and the following day, 3,000 people died from the COVID-19 epidemic. The country continues to further disunite, with over one-third of the eligible population refusing to get vaccinated. At this rate, we can predict a Sept. 11, 2001, death toll every two days.

Please get vaccinated and reduce this horrible figure. Until you do, the slaughter continues.
