COVID-19 Officially the Deadliest Pandemic in US History (2021): September 20

06:20 AM | -

On September 20, 2021, US deaths from the COVID-19 virus officially passed the known death toll from the 1918 Flu pandemic, often referred to as the Spanish Flu. The 1918 - 1920 pandemic claimed 675,000 American lives and an estimated 50 million people globally. COVID-19 has officially claimed over 675,000 American lives, with the vast majority killing those refusing the vaccine between April and September 2021. As of September 20, 2021, 229,811,438 people worldwide have been infected. Of those, 4,713,516 have died. Those numbers are likely conservative due to a shortage of testing supplies globally and deaths not registered as COVID due to death at home or not in a hospital. The United States leads the world in infections and deaths due to political reasons. Nearly 35% of the population doesn’t believe in wearing masks or getting vaccinated, and many from this group do not believe COVID exists. Because of this, deaths and infections continue to rise, particularly in states with Republican governors and dominant evangelical Christian populations. Update: September 1, 2022 The United States has surpassed 96,149,016 recorded infections and over 1,069,748 deaths from COVID-19. Worldwide 607,503,134 infections and 6,492,964 deaths due to COVID have been recorded. Nearly three years since its inception, over 500,000 people become infected and over 1,500 people each day continue to die from COVID-19.

Pepperoni Pizza Day, Ntl.: September 20

06:20 AM | -

Pizza is beloved worldwide, but the first pepperoni pizza, the most popular pie, officially appeared on the scene in New Haven, Connecticut's restaurant, The Spot, in 1950. True, it may have existed before this (most likely in New York City). Pepperoni isn't an Italian old-world invention. Instead, it's the Italian-American version of salami and gets its red color from the spice paprika. The sausage first appeared during WWI in the delis of New York City's Little Italy, popularized by soldiers. The pepperoni was affordable to the working class, didn't require special handling, and tended to stay good for some time without refrigeration. National Pepperoni Pizza Day has appeared on the internet over the past decade, and we cannot track the reason for September 20 as the date. However, pizza restaurants have embraced the day nationwide. Because of this, you'll find great deals on pepperoni pizza today, if not for the next week or month. The closest organization to a sponsor is Marco's Old World Pizza. The chain starts its 920 Movement on 9/20 and celebrates Pepperoni Pizza Day through Pizza Month in October with specials.
