I'd argue that the people who are still showing up to hear Trump fall into that category.

Huh? You had to find a way to drag Trump into it when his minions consistently boo him when he recommends they get the vax? Really had to do a stretch Armstrong to work that “but Trump” but you do you.

I just checked the age distribution in South Africa and it seems they have a very large population of young people. This could be one of the reasons why Omicron was so mild there.

Is that the CDC definition of unvaccinated? Because you could have only one jab of the Moderna or Pfizer and be classified as unvaccinated. Or, if they are fully vaccinated but no booster, they could be classified as unvaccinated.

I’d also like to know the co morbidities and median age of those hospitalized.

It wasn't that hard to "drag" Trump into "it" when the "it" was a Trump function.

wait..wait... Were you there?

Your reply was dumb as hell. You use Trump as an example of making the vax political when his legion of minions clearly ignore his own recommendations on the matter

No I couldn’t make it I had a prior engagement pointing out people making piss poor arguments on VNPF

BTW you do get a shade point back at me I missed that Mcdaddios comment was in reply to the Trump crowd booing him. Still don’t think your comment follows the observation but whatevah Trump was already in play.

Even the best-case scenario with omicron will still be bad
Don’t be too reassured yet by the thought that the variant mostly causes mild cases

https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2021/12/21/omicron-mild-cases-numbers/


Excerpt:

But a “mild” case of covid can still make you feel miserable, even bedridden, for days. Huge numbers of “mildly ill” people unable to go to work or school can cause enormous societal disruption, especially while we’re already experiencing labor shortages and supply-chain disruptions. There’s also the risk of long covid, which can cause physical and cognitive issues for many weeks and months after recovery from the acute phase of illness, and which we still don’t understand that well even two years into the pandemic.​
And finally, there’s math. Let’s pull a number out of thin air for demonstration’s sake and say that only 2 percent of omicron cases are severe enough to cause hospitalization. Good news, right? Not if omicron also causes exponentially more infections in a condensed time. Two percent of a huge number is a very large number indeed. With hospitals across the U.S. already strained to the breaking point, the implications are frightening.​

Notice how much of the excerpt is speculation and speculation at the worst case end. I thought we were supposed to "follow the science" and not spread unsupported misinformation. This is pure panic porn that abandons data for guesses but I guess it's fine for the panic peddlers to do so.

The article may be fake. I can't find anything by searching on ICCs website. It looked legit. But, I'm going to delete my post just in case.
