Locked-down California runs out of reasons for surprising surge - POLITICO

At more than 100 new daily cases per 100,000 residents, California's case rate is second only to that in Tennessee, according to the nonprofit tracking site Covid Act Now — though it's a state that does not mandate mask wearing and allows indoor gatherings of up to 10 people.

Quote from The Thursday Murder Club: A Novel by Richard Osman

""Would you like the detailed answer, or the simple answer?" asks Ibrahim. "The simple answer, please, Ibrahim," says Elizabeth, without hesitation. Ibrahim pauses. Perhaps he had phrased his question poorly? "But I have prepared a detailed answer, Elizabeth." He lets this hang in the air, until Joyce says, "Well, let's all enjoy the detailed answer, shall we?""
