Is it time to say that Europe is probably at the beginning of a second wave? Infection rates/confirmed cases have reached their highest points since May this past week in various countries (Ireland, NL, Germany, France just to name a few) and schools are also reopening everywhere in Europe in the coming months.
The new sparks are probably because of tourism (which for some odd reason was entirely safe according to our government) because the bankrupt Southern European countries are dependent on tourism. With the summer season ending and people coming back home and schools reopening we might be in for a sure increase these coming months.

Second wave? Nah, we're still in the prolonged first. All this wave business is a distraction.
It's tourism, warm weather, and stupid & desperate young people.
This was a pretty reductionist opinion, but I appreciated how he tried to frame it so people could understand cause-and-effect:

Interesting how this is framed as a "Trump vaccine" when the guy wouldn't know the first thing about what end of the needle to stick in his arm.
Of course, Obamacare got the same treatment. He just so happened to be in the office while everyone else did the work, so there is a tendency to falsely attribute anything that happens under an administration to the president at the time.
Because it's better to die with friends than be correct alone.
