There have been 830 total Omicron cases in the United States

I seem to recall someone saying that as the virus (which came from China) mutates, it would be spread easier but become less lethal.


Isn't that exactly what we are seeing with the Xi variant?

This is my understanding as well and so far my observation as well. But Maddow, Lemon, Fauci, et al need something to make a lot of noise about.

I doubt there's been that few. They're not testing for what variant it is when you get tested. There's certainly been way more.

They only test about 1-2 %.

So you can easily multiply by 50.

Just heard the national news headline on the radio full of fear porn. New York is being over run with CASES. Other states and other countries are seeing sharp rise in CASES.

That is how we know that there isn’t a huge issue with ICU’s being full or deaths going up a bunch. They aren’t referencing those numbers

Moronic virus

This is actually like the goldilocks scenario for the world. An extreme spread of a relatively mild to harmless variant that out competes all the other strains. You couldn't hope for a better realistic situation this quick with covid. Luckily it's so contagious, vaccines and mitigation won't inhibit its spread. So the incompetents in charge are unable to fk this up.



Oh and we all going to die.

New York is still getting hit by Delta.

*edited to add that that's what happens when you continuously lock down.

More people with antibodies to fight the dreaded sniffles and low-grade fever is actually a positive, although we will be overexposed to the usual fear porn.
