Quoting: Sir France's Beercan Biden screwed up and forgot to order the tests, derailed the plan. the hype is directly related to the % of unvaxed getting sick. so as vaxed got sick, they dumped it. #3 the closer u get to an election, the less covid can b in the news. #4 media has yet to ask the virus. last quote from the virus was "hold my beer" that was just prior to 2021. for 2022, the virus just did an evil laugh. #4 day 16 the laugh came from Mother Nature, bout knocked a country completely off the map.

[link to mobile.twitter.com (secure)] In fact, the recovered status only lasts for about two months, since the first 28 days of the 90-day rule are partly used for quarantine and partly for a waiting period that goes beyond that.

User ID: 59390060 United States 01/17/2022 07:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think maybe, at a point, it becomes a harm reduction/damage control model. We can't stop this virus, unless a true sterilizing vaccine is made, and it would need to be forced on huge numbers of people who would be unwilling to get it. The "let it burn" model is going to be pretty catastrophic as the weeks roll on, if this doesn't peak and drop off pretty shortly. Given that people are already getting second (and, in a few cases, third) omicron infections, I don't see why it would drop off very substantially. Our numbers are more or less meaningless now, since home tests don't make it into the figures. Hospitals are already overloaded, and the healthcare workers are so exhausted that they can't continue doing this level of crisis care indefinitely. Personally, I think it would be wise to go back to some restrictions -- masks, social distancing, limiting of non-essential travel -- at least for a while. At the very least, time enough to let the hospitals catch up somewhat. But, the average person seems to believe that Omicron is mild, and therefore nothing to worry about. They also figure since it is almost inevitable that most of us will get it, we should just throw all restrictions out the window. At least where I am, people do mask, and are generally pretty Covid cautious. Even still, the rates of transmission are really high. Looks like freedom but it feels like death. It's something in between I guess... it's closing time. Lenonard Cohen |

Quoting: Doommonkey From the moment they locked down 11 million people over 300 deaths, I was saying they knew something about this virus that nobody else did. Apparently they still do. The sad thing is that the rest of us DO know at least a good part of why we should be trying to stop transmission. Every single variant has caused cardiovascular problems, neurological problems, organ failure, and devastating lung damage, and that is just for starters. There is plenty of evidence that even mild cases disrupt a lot of the body's systems in ways that may lead to cancer, auto-immune issues, and a host of other longer term problems. Now, China may indeed know a lot more than the above, but those things alone are a pretty good reason not to let it rip through your population, particularly when it appears that people are getting it multiple times. Whatever immunity is conferred by prior infection, it is not sufficient to stop the spread via re-infections with the same variant or a different one. Looks like freedom but it feels like death.
