Well that's concerning
Is it though? Itβs an omicron subvariant that doesnβt seem to be any worse that its predecessors and the annual booster update is likely to get authorized in a few weeks.
This is the new normal. Covid mutates like flu, and each year will have covid and flu shots in the fall.
Long covid implications are worrisome, multiple reinfections are one of the few things we know are not good
Thanks for being the only voice of reason. Everyone else is just like "ya but we don't die so who gives a fuck" attitude.
I'm glad some people are still looking at COVID as a whole.
I mean you need only look at the people in your daily life to realize there aren't many people who care anymore. Simple things like wearing a mask are off the table for the vast majority.
I think a lot of us are, I just feel folks who are thinking big-picture aren't the type to make a lot of noise on the internet about it, ya know?
