Show Notes

This week on FiredUp, Steve will be updating the latest Covid information including stats as well as news on the latest variant - called the Lambda Variant - which has been identified in 41 countries around the world as well as being identified in 44 US states with 1300 cases already documented.
- In other Covid related stories, news about the increasing numbers of former anti-vaxxer/anti-mask advocates that continue to "get religion" about getting the vaccine once they have been infected and hospitalized with the Delta variant.
- Also, critics falsely attribute statements that the Biden Administration wants to require all US citizens to get vaccinated, a false claim as no such statement has ever been issued.
- There was a story that a conservative spokesperson called the requirement for Covid vaccination before students can attend school this fall a civil rights violation, ignoring the fact that pre start-of-school vaccinations have been a requirement for more that 50 years and are perfectly legal under local and state laws.
- In political news, the Biden administration is drawing heat from their dropping the ball and letting the CDC Eviction Moratorium end. Now they are scrambling to get it reinstated.
- And if the events of January 6th weren't enough, a Right Wing group has announced another protest at the Capitol for Sept 18th.
