Iowa governor Kim Reynolds’s reluctance to embrace stringent coronavirus lockdown measures resulted in a case spike in November and guaranteed certain disaster over the holidays, according to an ominous story featured prominently on
The Atlantic’s website in December.
Titled “Iowa Is What Happens When Government Does Nothing,” the article, written by Iowa native Elaine Godfrey and published on December 3, attributed the brief statewide spike in cases and hospitalizations to Reynolds’s insistence on weighing economic factors when making decisions about COVID, and predicted that the state “can expect to see nothing less than a tsunami” over the upcoming holiday season.

The Hawk Eye
A shooting that took place Monday streets may be related to another shooting that left one man suffering life-threatening injuries.
Police began receiving reports at 12:23 p.m. Monday that shots had been fired somewhere near the 2400 block of Flint Hills Drive, where a shooting had occurred the day before.
The shots were heard by many in Burlington, however, and numerous reports from multiple locations made it difficult to pinpoint the exact location of where the shooting occurred.
Officers responding to the vicinity identified a vehicle believed to be involved in the shooting in the area of Division and Leebrick streets. After a brief pursuit, the vehicle was pulled over. The driver and passengers of the vehicle were detained and taken to the Burlington Police Department for interviews.
