Uh oh… the Omicron surge may be slowing already

Wingers yodeled with joy when Omicron evolved and whacked us. It helped them pretend that Biden’s anti-Covid measures were not effective.

Well, wingers will be sad to learn that the Omicron surge may be slowing already…


Sorry wingers.

I certainly hope so. Evidence from the UK, South Africa, and a few other nations seems to indicate that it hits hard, fast, and then burns out. This would be good news indeed.

Remember...some folks can't post about ANYTHING without politically weaponizing it for the party.

... And I do a TERRIBLE Hank Williams impersonation. The Slim Whitman is worse still...nobody deserves that.

But won’t that make it harder to bash Biden for the Covid problems? What if, God forbid, we turn the corner on the pandemic? You’ll have to praise Biden, no?

I am unconcerned about the welfare of lifelong politicians and those who worship them. I am, however, delighted at the prospect of covid waning. I hope that happens - irrespective of political utility.

If only we had more citizens who were decent like this...

I hope it has slowed. We had 7 employees out with Covid between Christmas and January 3rd. Today we only have 3.

What herd immunity???

  1. COVID-19
    Omicron variant: B.1.1.529
    From the CDC and WHO:
    • How easily does Omicron spread? The great increase in daily cases over the past several weeks is largely related to the omicron variant, which now represents about 98% of the COVID-19 cases in the country.
    • What symptoms does Omicron produce? According to the World Health Organization, more evidence is emerging that the Omicron coronavirus variant is affecting the upper respiratory tract, causing milder symptoms than previous variants.
    • How bad is it compared to Delta? A Kaiser study shows Omicron has half the risk of hospitalization, 74% less risk of ICU admission, and 91% less risk of death. However, the staggering rise in cases - over 1 million new cases each day - has led to a high number of total hospitalizations.
    • Will vaccines work against Omicron? Current vaccines are expected to protect against severe illness, hospitalizations, and deaths due to infection with the Omicron variant. However, breakthrough infections in people who are fully vaccinated are likely to occur.
    • Will treatments work against Omicron? Scientists are working to determine how well existing treatments for COVID-19 work. Based on the changed genetic make-up of Omicron, some treatments are likely to remain effective while others may be less effective.
    CDC: Omicron variant
    CDC Director remarks, Jan 12

It is not Biden*. Biden* hasn't done anything. It took 6 months before Trump had 4 million cases, and Biden* did 4 million last week, after a full year to fix the problem.

BTW the CDC says vaccines, masks and testing. are what's available, the same since Trump.

If I were you, I'd leave the science to the scientists. And I'd replace Dobby...err Fauci for making Biden* look so bad.

Wow, who'd a thunk you would stoop so low as to lie to America about Biden*, besides everyone here. Amirite?

Here are some titles to articles which may support your theory:

Ah, the old dodgeroonie. Looks like your political yapping about Covid will end if we turn the corner.

You know how shocked I am by your response.

Yup. It’s amazingly transmissible. We recently had 750,000 new infections confirmed. Since not all infections are reported, it’s probably been a million a day pace. Staggering numbers. We may be approaching the herd immunity we would have had months ago in the absence of the rampant covidiocy.

What was dodged? You posted of this variant potentially waning. I affirmed that the case for this is bolstered by a couple of other countries’ data. I stated my gratification at this prospect. You then lapsed into your asinine partisan hackery because you are a tiny little ineffectual empty husk of a man.

Irrespective of political utility, decent Americans are happy if this happens. Worthless maggots continue to squeeze political advantage.

Thanks for the reminder as to why we should all avoid the blistering inadequacy that IS the Bugsy post. Go on.

What was dodged was my questions. I didn’t ask you to type in some non-responsive insincere drivel. Here’s my questions again:

But won’t that make it harder to bash Biden for the Covid problems? What if, God forbid, we turn the corner on the pandemic? You’ll have to praise Biden, no?

Good Lord - THAT’S what your concerns and questions are? Are you even a human being or some DNC-deployed I.T. derivative.?

Algorithmsy

“Well, yes, nearly a million Americans died…but won’t you need to praise my beloved politician?!?”.

I need to avoid you like the plague you are. I won’t dodge your non-content. I’ll dodge YOU as the non-entity you are.

You realize, of course, that I fully expected you to dodge my questions again. I don’t want you thinking I’m naive enough to think you would answer my questions.

After all, how could you justify bashing Biden due to the surge of infections while not agreeing to praise him if the infections decrease?

Having no defensible answer to that question you chose your usual response - dodging.
