A famed conservative columnist who lives at the epicenter of the United States' latest Delta COVID cluster said of the virus 'Let it rip' after seeing how mild his vaccinated friends' symptoms were. Writer Andrew Sullivan says the COVID-19 outbreak in Provincetown, Massachusetts, that infected around 900 people and triggered CDC's mask U-turn was sparked by wild July 4 indoor parties following Pride Week. This outbreak was behind the CDC's sudden backpedal on mask recommendations for vaccinated Americans to wear masks in indoor places in COVID hot spots.

A father of five, already hooked up to a bed in a Las Vegas hospital, texted his fiancée and expressed his regret over not getting the COVID-19 shot.
“I should have gotten the damn vaccine,” Michael Freedy wrote. On Thursday, the 39-year-old, known by friends as “Big Mike” died of complications from coronavirus. He contracted the disease during a vacation in San Diego with his fiancée, Jessica du Preez, and their five children—ages 17, 10, 7, 6 and 17 months. Shortly after they returned from the trip earlier this month, Freedy developed a painful skin rash.

An angry crowd beat a man to death after a car crash in the Bronx, repeatedly stomping his head against the concrete as his brother was also beaten nearby, cops and prosecutors said Thursday. Two suspects were arrested in the case—and were freed on bail before the death of Geuris Guillermo, 42, raised the attack to a homicide. A gang of 10 to 15 people pummeled Guillermo and his brother, Ambiori Guillermo, just before 2:40 a.m. Sunday—right after the two collided with another vehicle on the corner of East 176 Street and Carter Ave. in Mount Hope. As cops tell it, two men

Cartersville, Ga—A man is charged with sexual battery after police say he groped women in a grocery store. When other shoppers at the Ingles in Cartersville heard what was happening, they stepped in and made sure the man wasn't going anywhere until police arrived. Josh Collins was in the grocery store with his daughter. "Heard a huge commotion and I hear a woman say 'You can't grab me like that," said Collins.(Snip) The men say a number of people have thanked them for stepping in. They say they didn't do it for praise, they did it because it was the right thing to do.
