    So are folks of the beliefs that this administration & CDC should of already had a vaccine for Omicron? It took almost two years to come up with vaccine for the Original virus, what else can be done by this administration? Please tell me what other steps needs to be taken to get out of this mess..

    If I hear one more person say “no one saw this coming” I’m gonna lose it. We’ve been warned about variants for over a year now. 

    True.  That's been widely talked about for some time.  Has anyone actually said "no one saw this coming"?  I hadn't heard that.
    Ya, the mush brain in office own VP said it the other day…..How CNN even dared to report this is beyond me.   
    lol do you remember when C19 hit? Who was the president then? And what he stated? From what I remember he said to the effect of “ this virus it will disappear by Easter” and can you tell us how many Americans died during 2020? I’m not excusing VP for her statement I’m sure at some point she might try to clarify! 
    More died this year. I think we can stop putting all the blame on one person. You’re excusing her by bringing up the previous administration. We’re almost a year removed from trump. Enough with him. Time to judge people on their own merit.

    So no blame goes to this administration? I’m just asking. They did everything perfectly? The only people to blame are those pesky trump supporters? That just sounds so silly to me. 38,000 new cases the other day here in NY. Who’s to blame in a blue state with an extremely high vaccination rate? Trump? I think it’s time to stop the blame game. Do you think if everything was the same this year except Trump was the president, that you’d feel the same way? Or would you be throwing around that death count and condemning him? Let’s be honest now. 

    Disclaimer : I’m not defending trump. Fuck him. And I’m vaccinated and boosted! Just pointing out the silliness of thinking we would have overcame this last year with a different president. It’s nonsense.

    Read this summary of the recent congressional report regarding the handling of the virus by the Trump administration.  It's from the Bulwark which is conservative site that does not like Trump.  This is why Trump bears weight for at least some of the deaths.  No administration could do everything perfect in this scenario, but the Trump admin deliberately and consistently played down and politicized the issue.

    These numbers have stressed out Canadas world class healthcare…
    I was just talking about the stark contrast in Manitoba's hospital numbers as compared to Ontario. Our ICU is close to 100, Ontario is only 164, but over 10 times the amount of daily reported cases.....

    The omicron is looking very mild so far here just to calm the nerves.  All the family all had very mild and recovered.  The unvaxxed had it a bit rough but  not at all serious. . Just to update. Have the best time you can.  Love
    Great to hear!

    My son has it now.  He drove his gf back to Philly from school for winter break.  I warned him starting at Thanksgiving that he had to get his booster.  Too busy, not enough time, blah blah blah.  Shockingly a 20 year old makes bad decisions.  So he spent Christmas quarantined and sleeping after he, his gf, her brother, etc. all got infected.  Now his new years eve plans are in jeopardy.  

    HIs symptoms were sore throat, a little congestion and a really bad headache.  This is his second bout whereas no one else in the family has had it.  But he makes bad decisions.

    I was bullet proof when I was 20, and didn't listen to a whole lot of people either. Seems par for the course at that age.

    Yeah you think you are, even when all evidence points to the opposite.  Last year everyone in the family got hte flu shot but him.  Guess who had a terrible case of the flu?  Knocked him down for over a week.  Now this will put him out of commission for the week at least.  I said to him, dude.. you say you're too busy but really it just means you didnt' prioritize it.  Now because you couldn't take an hour in the last month to get a booster and you've missed Christmas and probably your frat's New Years party up at JMU.  Maybe next time he will take the hour to get a shot.  Or not.

    Tested positive last Wednesday.  Woke up that morning with typical flu/cold symptoms....headache, body aches, mild fever.  Was feeling much better by Thursday afternoon after a lot of resting and sleep.  Thankfully my wife who is pregnant and 2 kids all tested negative....not sure how that is possible!  The main bummer was not being able to see family for Xmas..kids are 5 and 2.5 so they are in prime Christmas age.  Still made the best of it.  Now I'm just feeling a little congested/stuffed up.  Will prob go get tested later today or tomorrow to see if I'm negative yet.

    Tests show pos for a longtime even if you are no longer  shedding. They say 28 until you can do a pcr. My kids showed pos on a lateral up to day 13. Best of luck. Kids of that age is what xmas is about.
