![]() Seems omicron will end this pandemic. Now let's hope Russia and China behave so the world can go back to normal in a few months. |

![]() don't get me wrong, i really hope things get better, even at a slower pace, but right now i'm not seeing it, really. The best we can hope for is a new normal however that might look like.

![]() Well, this wave seems to be on the decline where I live. Elective surgeries prohibited if over 85% bed capacity. They've been cancelled for weeks. Wife's surgery is on for Monday.

![]() More transmissible, no worse symptoms. Overall, probably a good thing as it's going to make it that much more difficult for another more lethal variant to outcompete it. Still not really very prevalent in the US, but it's probably just a matter of time. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/01/28/the-...us-states.html Quote:

![]() It's always interesting to me the dichotomy involved here. The same people in the United States who say that they'd be happy to strap a firearm to their hip to save the lives of others, are the same folks who are arguing most vigorously that they will not strap a piece of cloth over their mouth to save the lives of others.

![]() Can't hurt to take a vitamin D supplement, guys.. I'm on it anyway as my blood tests had shown low levels a few years back. https://www.timesofisrael.com/israel...o-fight-covid/ Quote:

![]() Probably these guys. Preliminary result in June. It's now official, went through peer review, and being published as final. Note that this data was from Delta, not Omicron. Still, Vitamin D bolstering the immune system doesn't change based on the virus, just the death-rate would likely be different and less dramatic if done again today. A 23% difference in mortality rate is something. Of those hospitalized (with Delta), 14x more likely to be severe/critical.
