and deaths. That made sense and Americans were on board with it.

But during that first summer three focus was switched from hospitalizations and deaths to cases. They equated the patient dying in a hospital with the asymptomatic one going about their daily business.

We should be celebrating the omicron variant, it is highly transmissible but less deadly. That is exactly want you want in a variant. Instead we have idiots in charge shutting down schools again and ramping up mandates.

Those who claim to be 'following the science' have the least understanding of science.
