It's always a train wreck of misinformation and illogic with what comes after your 'I think....'

There are NO data that do not show that the most and the worst cases of Covid are occurring among the unvaxxed.

50 times less chance of severe disease if one has received the booster is the latest data.

And the spreading is caused overwhelmingly by the unvaxxed.

A Covid-19 'viral blizzard' is about to hit the US, expert says, with 'millions' to be infected soon

(CNN)The coronavirus will hit millions of Americans in a "viral blizzard" within a few weeks as infections from the Omicron variant pile on top of Delta, an expert predicts.

Already, hospitalizations are rising as the holiday season gets into full swing. Long lines for Covid-19 testing formed Thursday in metro areas, including New York, Boston and Miami.

The Delta variant remains a problem. And Omicron, with its high transmissibility, could strike millions more soon, said Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota.

"We're really just about to experience a viral blizzard," Osterholm told CNN's Erin Burnett on Thursday.
"In the next three to eight weeks, we're going to see millions of Americans are going to be infected with this virus, and that will be overlaid on top of Delta, and we're not yet sure exactly how that's going to work out."

Omicron will cause a serious strain on the health care system as more workers will likely get sick, Osterholm said, even though most cases from Omicron seem to be mild.

"What you have here right now is a potential perfect storm," Osterholm said. "I've been very concerned about the fact that we could easily see a quarter or a third of our health care workers quickly becoming cases themselves."

Are you OK with needing a vaccine passport to access hospital treatment for Covid?

Tell the truth, for once in your miserable excuse for a life.

Or are you OK with paying cash on the nail?
