This is a huge win. The high number of cases of this much weakrned variant will help us reach the conclusion of this mess. I just had Covid. Tested positive yesterday. Was sick with like a scratchy throat for about a day. Omicron is the missing link between pandemic and endemic.

That's debatable.

My wife had Covid the week after Thanksgiving. Pretty bad cough for a week and loss of taste and smell for a few days. Tested negative a week after testing positive. I escaped so far. But, I got the booster, she didn't.

Glad She got thru it.

Viruses are going to virus. No respiratory virus in history has been eradicated by vaccine. This one won?t either. However, the vaccine has helped tremendously in saving lives and lessening symptom severity. No need for me to take a booster since I?m vaccinated and I am now positive. I?m not going to minimize the tragic loss of life to this point. I know people who died, and I know someone seemingly healthy my age who very nearly died. They thought she was done, but things fortunately turned around for her while she was in a medically induced coma.

No one ( not even fauci) is predicting major increase in deaths, so much of what We hear in the media focuses on the spike in number of cases and potential overrunning of the medical system. The thing is, Omicron ran thru South Africa without Pushing their medical system to the brink. Cases will peak in the US in about 3 weeks then fall off a cliff. The largest hospital system in Louisiana isn?t remotely strained except that 200 medical staff are quarantined at moment. But, let?s think about this, would we be concerned at 200 medical staff or out with a different coronavirus like a common cold? We wouldn?t be. I feel strongly that it?s time to let go of what was, accept this for what it is today. Sure, I know It can be scary for some, but I?m overweight and my blood pressure is controlled with meds, yet this variant affected me less than a typical cold.

The end is near??.but in a good way

Omicron is the common cold :facepalm: I still see idiots wearing masks
OK so i'am an idiot that will be alive because i still wear a mask to prevent me getting sick from others who do not and cough n sneeze in my direction

When your out in public like restaurant and casinos wear a mask you fools especially if your elder like me 68 yr old with diabetes

I never got it at first cause i built up my immune system taking vitamin C n D every day

THIS is MUST in case you catch it now or later .......i'm going for booster shot next week

I want to live as long as i can and pray this virus goes away in a year so we can live normally again without wearing a mask

Last year you were all about it being, "just the flu".

:shrug:


And before that he said it was a hoax.


But then when Hedgehog got covid, I guess the hoax was proven false.




Hedgehog........the smartest Madjacker that ever lived:00hour










Has Hedgehog ever been right about anything? Seriously, has he ever posted one fact that was actually correct:shrug: I am dead serious, in all these years (his first post was in 2003) has he ever posted ONE THING on here that was actually right? Has he ever posted correct information, ya know a nugget of information that was proven true?

Really glad to hear you got thru this ok Cie. I can honestly say I might not think this is as big of a deal if I didn?t have a 92 year old mother and father that I will do everything I can to protect every day. I have a lot of friends who think this is all a bunch of nothing and they have every right to think and say that. But they lose me when they say we?d all be better off if everyone just got Covid and got over it. At 92 mom and dad are compromised and have underlying conditions and I?m not sure they could survive it. And if I didn?t do everything I could to protect myself so I don?t bring it home to them I?m not sure I could live with myself. I can?t wait till I don?t have to worry about this as much as I do but that day isn?t today for me. Stay safe and healthy Cie. And if you ever want to adopt a puppy I can hook you up ❤️

I?m with ya, my man. Sadly, the situation for elderly and otherwise immunocompromised isn?t much better today than when this started. you?re definitely doing yeoman?s work taking care of those who cannot care for themselves. Obviously, I?m referring to your folks, but also your work on North Gale. Phenomenal stuff. I simply can?t get enough. You need a north gale reality tv show. I?m pretty sure one of the MJ?s millionaires can produce it lol
