Better than movie is real life. We go to theaters to be entertained for 2 hours but real events entertained us throughout our waking hours.
Let’s be honest. Don’t we miss President Trump’s entertaining headlines handling of the Pandemic from the time of initial attack of COVID on American soil in 2020 to the attack on Democracy with Insurrection of 2021? I do. Very much.
And yes, the Stock Market was at its best and exciting performance when he was the President. It was the perfect time to get rich quick when many stocks were heading to the moon. Meme stocks like GameStop and AMC made many instant Millionaires. It was the peak of Pump and Dump. Nope, not one of the Millionaires.
Okay, I am Pro-Vaccine. I believe me and those who got fully vaccinated had been and will be saved from serious COVID Illness, Hospitalization and Death. And thanks to President Biden aggressive campaign with vaccination, many maybe spared from the new variant concern, the Omicron.
“Maybe” because Omicron Variant wasn’t a consideration and possibility when the current batch of COVID vaccines were made. It’s an “if” and “may” work guessing game for now till we really see full blown widespread Omicron replacing Delta in the next 3-5 months.
In less vaccinated areas, Omicron will take hold. Winter to Spring 2022 cluster surges will close movie theaters and some businesses again. Some Cities will have a repeat of overwhelmed Hospitals and Emergency Systems. Real life fear and horror will outdo any horror movie to be released in 2022 in communities Omicron will choose as its epicenter hub.
First case of Omicron already in California, but the only reason America knew about it was because the Person was very pro-active in reporting travel history and for being tested specific for Omicron. How many will do that?
We will have undetected cases of Omicron because either People are not aware they are infected or will not bother to be tested. Contact tracing is no longer being done for the usual Delta, but only for the Omicron, but who determines which specimen needs special test to identity if it’s Omicron or Delta unless it becomes a universal standard protocol? How many Laboratories in the Country have the fancy device and trained Professionals to detect Omicron?
By the time Omicron detection is widely available, it has been passed around thousands and thousands of times as evidence by a sudden steady outburst of outbreaks that is Omicron Variant dominated.
We will hear and read more confusing stories in the next several weeks both from Experts and People pretending to be Experts.
Exactly, during these times Omicron will swiftly infiltrate many communities in America and the World, just like Delta did. Recent History will repeat itself.
As I said, real life is better than the movies whether it’s Comedy, Drama, Action, Horror, War or Fiction.
Early part of 2022 from Winter to Spring will have lots of surprises and shockers. Definitely, it will be entertaining. A must-watch year for both the predictable and the unexpected.

“Some days I forget COVID still exist or that it can be life threatening. Possible COVID patients has been an everyday normal work flow to me that it has become ordinary. It has become like any other infectious disease. Doesn’t bother me anymore. No fear made me live normally again. It’s been like that for many months now. I’m sure, many feel the same way.”

I have seen how COVID grew in my community since 2020, and how public health and leaders actually helped make it spread. So many wrong information and ambivalence that we blew our true first opportunity to have ended it with the first lockdown. Now it’s forever. One new variant will dominate every year. It’s the nature of the virus which I believe is genetically altered to be this determined to outdo Science. I have not seen a Flu positive case since last year but I am seeing the resurgence of covid symptoms and positivity again. But really, it’s now normal too see such a community outbreak. Everyone needs to live as normal as they can and try enjoying life without fear.

Thanks for sharing. Some countries are pretty good in handling new variants, others seems like come what may. The U.S. I think is the most ambivalent of them all when it comes to covid. There is one side that believes it’s real and try, then there’s the 30 percent or so that will bet their life and others that COVID is all fabrication, lies and a political tool to take away people’s freedom. There are even healthcare staff who don’t take COVID seriously even if they saw patients sick and dying themselves. It’s crazy what people will do or think for their ideology and beliefs. Also crazy how people are willing to die for their political Gods. For sure, always edgy and exciting to live in America. 2022 may outshine 2021, just don’t know in what way. Take care. Stay safe. And yes, Hope we learn from the past. Thanks.

So a highly recovered country is somehow inferior to a highly vaccinated country?
Sweden is highly recovered and covid is now endemic in it, apparently.
Naturally-acquired immunity is theoretically superior to artificially acquired immunity, with contributions from innate immunity and mucosal immunity and non S-protein humoral antibodies all joining the fight.
LikeLike
Thanks for the share. Haven’t have the natural immunity as have not been sick with covid at all. The vaccine I got my booster. Whether natural or artificial, as frontliner worker, had to get something from being sick due to frequent infection contact.

There is so very much uncertainty about covid that it’s impossible to say that anyone hasn’t had it. The reason for the uncertainty is a lack of certainty in testing for exposure. There was a Hopkins meta analysis of PCR false negatives which found that there was a floor of false negatives for PCR on the third day post symptom onset and climbed in either direction from there. Of course, if you have been exposed and your innate immune system dealt with exposure, then your humoral antibodies won’t show it and PCR tests will not show exposure.
Certainly, with Delta being so very infectious, we have all been exposed to it by now. Last summer we saw the rural population being exposed to Delta.

The vaccines seem to have a negligible impact on covid mortality. I would expect hospitalizations to show similar statistics.
