I'm betting there are a few "anti-vaxxers" on this board that have got the jab and just won't admit it.



We are still well below (2-3 out of 10) the level of vaxxed population that is needed for herd immunity. Maybe, just maybe, Omicron isn't nearly as serious and will get us to that point without massive death counts.



Or maybe another variant is coming with baby 2022 that has the same spreading ability and a higher fatality rate than we've seen before and we haven't seen anything yet.


At this point I'm simply tired of the idiots that aren't smart enought to protect themselves, much less their family, friends, neighbors. Get sick, get antibodies and live, or die. I don't care, just do one or the other so we can get to a point of herd immunity and put this behind us.

As long as you let the political class go on with their power grab it will NEVER be over. We get back to normal when enough of us become ungovernable.

As you know the Omicron variant is much more infectious than other variants.

Officially 130,000 people per day are being infected with COVID. Unofficially (counting people who got it and weren't tested), more.

Use the official number (130,000 per day). Assume each person is infectious for a 7 day period. So right now the total number of infectious individuals would be around 7 x 130,000 = 910,000. According to the CDC, 73% of new cases are the Omicron variant. So assume 0.7 x 910,000 = 637,000 people have Omicron and are infectious..

South Africa reports each person infected with Omicron on average infects about 2 to 2.5 others (R = 2 to 2.5). In the UK they're reporting 3.5 to 4. To be conservative lets assume each person infected goes on to infect 2 others (R = 2) over a 7 day period.

Then at the end of eight weeks, you'd have 244 million people who were infected with the Omicron variant.

That won't happen, as R will go down as Omicron goes through the unvaccinated and previously uninfected (perhaps less than 60 million Americans) like wildfire. And through many others with pre-existing immunity, who will have on the whole have less severe symptoms.

I'm kind of curious what kind of response you'll come back with. I'm intentionally providing fodder for your vitriol.

Imagine Nancy Pelosi's vagina had teeth. Sharp-as-hell-saber-tooth-tiger teeth. And you slip it it in and she bites off your dick with her pussy teeth. All the way off. You'd call that an Omicron pussy. An Omicron virus is similar, only it's not a pussy. It's a virus.

I kind of have a variant of Covid. I am a member of Omicron Delta Epsilon. They finally started leaving me the fuck alone though recently because I guess they figured out I never paid dues. So technically, maybe I'm not a member now. I never cared to check either way, but it's still on my resume.

I don't get involved with these swinging dick econ battles in this forum. I get paid very well for knowing what I know about econ, fin and acct. I don't do that shit for free on a whore board or any board for that matter.

Unlike many who act like experts who don't know jack shit about what they are talking about, I believe it is better to just be quiet and smile with my Covid variant sounding secret society bullshit designation that I was given in undergrad many moons ago.

Anyway, I'm sick of hearing about all these anti vaxx dipshits filling up the hospitals. Just let those idiots die already and cull the herd.

While I 100% agree with this with one caveat, those unvaccinated crowd out hospital beds for those with other complications.

in my area they sayin death rate of the un-jab is only 14% higher that the jab.

And they seem having a hard time with is it C19 or this years flu. So think ops a few c19 deaths just may really be the flu. LOL I'm waiting for the NYS flu jab mandate LOL

Also the jab are the current carriers in my area


bring all this back to

^^^^^^
new cases always highest mid week

NYS many things you can not do unless jabbed and tested that happen mostly on a weekend. With delay to test and need to retest to go out the coming weekend,,, the C19 jabbed are the ones spreading C19.


that was the story till the new c19 1st seen in Africa. Collages in NYS are 95 to 100 % jabbed. And LOL schools closing with a high jump in tested dirty. To the rate 50% or higher have C19


for all this fun, I thank the CDC and China LOL mmmm fun as in blame

There you go?

It’s public health. Not public policy.

Turn off the TV and help the world, BuddyBoy.

This is why we can’t beat this thing.

What you left out, maybe because the numbers aren't out yet is, how many have died from Omicron? Isn't that the biggest concern? I keep hearing that there has been one death in the US, in a person that had Omicron. If that is true. look at all this hysteria of shutting down again if this variant isn't killing as much as Delta did.
