Omicron will correct this situation. TAKE OFF THE MASKS and let Omicron bring an end to this insanity. Everyone should follow the science.
That's not scientific, that is your opinion. Omicron spreads rapidly and doesn't end up increasing hospitalizations, problem is the Delta which is much more deadly is still her.
Thousands of New York City residents have been waiting in lines in below-freezing temperatures for hours to get tested for the new COVID Omicron variant, which typically presents with symptoms similar to the common cold.
thousands lined up in below freezing weather, not for a treatment, but just to see if they “have something”
And what a tragic waste of scarce healthcare resources
So answer me this. With a state with over 80% of adults vaccinated, with mandates galore and with the unvaccinated banned from participating in life, what happened? This is the biggest daily record since the start of the pandemic. I thought all these measures were supposed to work?
Who are they going to be able to blame this on now?
How is anyone going to be able to continue to claim masks and vaccines work?
That's the fear porn merchants trying to distort the facts. What the fear merchants do not tell you is that people arrive at the hospital for some aliment unrelated to Omicron. They test positive for the virus during routine testing, and even though they are asymptomatic, the porn merchants report it as if hospitals flooded with patients because of Omicron.

the CFR for covid was 5% in June 2020, 1.79% in June 2021 for the US
