I was perfectly clear about who I was responding to and what I was saying.

Not my problem you're confused...

Not confused at all. Posts #17, #18, and #19 are all pretty clear.

Thanks for playing and have a good night.

From what I understand this ormicron variant is causing very few hospitalizations and deaths. The numbers are much different than the annual flu. I think that if that were the case with the first two variants it wouldn’t have been such a big deal. After what we went through in 2020 and 2021 just the mention of Covid sends some people into a panic. All Covid is not the same.

Previous guidance started the U.S. can safely return to a more normal way of life when the disease burden from Covid resembles common respiratory viruses such as the flu and RSV.

What does the recent data tell you?

The recent data tells me nothing. I am not a virologist or pandemic expert, so I will go with CDC, WHO, and the scientists our government picks to give recommendations. I will also assume that the recommendations can and will change over time and adjust what I do accordingly.

I was recently in Bogata, Columbia, and they have much stronger "recommendations," ahem, than here, and unlike some of the Americans I met there, I simply followed their rules while in their country. I know I am a sheep. The other Americans there, well, they Got Rights, damn it. Unfortunately, those "rights" have a cost associated with them.

I am now in Ecuador, and they have recommendations between the US and Colombia, and I follow the guidelines here. When I return the US next month, I will once again follow the advice there and the advice of my doctor.

I am tired of all the online "experts" drawing conclusions based on "THE DATA"
