The peak of idiocy

is all these asymptomatic people getting tested or people with no symptoms standing in line to get tested.
What the ever living hell are people doing?

some of the leftist on here are scared

And lash out at people like a scared dog. The funny part is many of the "anti vax" people are vaxxed.
If you are scared, wear a mask to protect yourself.

Some people are frightened to walk outside alone in a remote National Park unmasked. Crazy for sure.
Some "asymptomatic people or people with no symptoms"-- It's early Tmanac!--are getting tested because they were exposed and they don't want to potentially expose others if they are positive and asymptomatic.
I would bet though that many are simply scared which is not rational.

I have given up on caring about COVID. I have had my shots and as far as I am concerned COVID is no longer part of mt life.

This omicron madness is just that

madness.
Biden should tell everyone to just calm the #### down. But our society is so dumb, grandma will die and then it will be his fault cause he told everyone to calm down.
It’s madness.

They are test asymptomatic college

athletes…..it’s absolutely absurd. I would understand if athletes were dropping like flies and everyone is deathly sick, but we know what we are dealing with now.
I am just in a mood this morning. I need to go for a run. Peace out.

That is the university rule

There was a more reasonable option of testing only unvaccinated or symptomatic students, but the Karens were upset about discrimination against the unvaxxed.

How many people have died from this new strain? Serious question. I don't know. It seems like people aren't dying. Am I accurate?

Don’t know how reliable but I read that Africa has over 25,000 cases with zero deaths.

We're numb to it now, but over 1,000 Americans die every day
Dec 29, 2021, 9:41 AM
[ in reply to Re: it isn't ] |

and have since August. Sometimes that has been as high as 2,000. And that's lower than the 3,000+ who died every day last winter, so that's good. But over a year, after year, after year, that adds up.
I mean no one cares about heart attacks, and they kill about 2,000 Americans a day. No one cares about caner, that kills 1,500 Americans a day. So why care about covid?
I have a government mandated air bag I have to pay for in every car I buy, and have to follow speed limits, and obey traffic rules, and all that, not to mention have to wear a seat belt, and that's just for the relatively safe act of driving. Only 38,000 people a year die driving.

And somehow a tiny group got the helmet laws repealed

I still can’t understand that. Not enough people cared, but we all have to pay when they get hurt. Just like we all have to pay for the unvaccinated when they get sick.

Most deaths are or will soon be from this strain

The spike in infections we are seeing now is from omicron. In a week or two, we’ll know better how deadly it is to Americans.

I thought some of it was travel related...

Had to have a negative test result to get on plane/enter country.
At least that's what my neighbor was bishing about.

my kid went to London for work
Dec 28, 2021, 8:58 AM
|

She was required to get tested within 48 hour of arriving and faced 2 weeks govt quarenteen if she was positive. So she got tested a couple days before she left. She was only there for a week.

I agree. Only test if symptomatic _ otherwise no end point that makes sense.***
