Well, I expect a lot of people were not going out and mingling.

And the "sudden" rise in cases is most likely due to the fact that now that kids are out of school, people are traveling much more often and are testing much more frequently than before...

More tests will = more positive results (even in asymptomatic patients...)

Is there a study that deals with the current strain of Covid?
As for continuous boosters, the experts from the European Medicines Agency (EMA)say getting COVID-19 booster shots may actually weaken your immune response. Researchers in Israel say a fourth COVID-19 shot doesn’t appear to produce enough antibodies to prevent infection from the Omicron variant. At times it seems there is a push to use as many vaccine shots as is possible for reasons other than the science. Once we see the lies of an agency it becomes impossible to believe what they say without facts.

Well, one minor consideration, not a controlled study, but certainly worth consideration. In the last wave 90% (or there about) of people hospitalized were unvaccinated. The majority of the deaths were in the unvaccinated. And yes, there are numerous studies showing the effectively of the vaccinations, and there are now over 2 billion people that have tested the vaccines and shown them to be safe and effective.

I don’t know everything and certainly not everything about Covid….but the few chosen pharmaceutical companies given authorization to provide the shots have never had it so financially good.
