Covid Is Declining Worldwide - Is The Surge Over? - OMICRON UPDATE 2/4/22!

Is Herd Immunity Pushing Covid From Pandemic to Endemic?

Note - That was posted over a Month ago ... It's been observed for awhile

I recently hear it reported on News, which prompted me to search it.
Apparently the observation it Valid & the trend is Ongoing.

This is all the More Remarkable as it's occurring as the Northern Hemisphere is approaching Winter, folks are spending time together Indoors, which would be expected to cause rate to INCREASE.

Conversely, to infect you need to have caught a dose of covid, which is unlikely to happen inside a home, whereas those going out and being in crowds are far more likely to catch a dose and then spread in their home.

So a lockdown makes sense,
It's Pro/College Basketball Season -
People ARE Gathering indoors in VERY large numbers weekly & in locations coast to coast & border to border.
Not to mention indoor gatherings @ Tens? Hundreds? of Thousands of Sports Bars.

What Difference, at this point, will Holiday get-togethers MAKE??? ... dunno

Cases have already increased since that report and are expected to at least double in December. Families will be mixing more so anybody picking it up will have access to more recipients. More people will have mild doses and won't be isolating. So you are right cases will increase and incubate in households. But hopefully less severe cases and not a proportionally high hospital admission rate.
World o-meter has about 250 million cases , even if it was double and more likely it is , that leaves many billions yet to be infected , covid has not got going yet . So far most have been "infected" by lockdowns , that is about to change . Both in Aussie and here its about to ballistic .
Can you explain more?
On the radio this morning one commentator said NZ can expect 12000 cases per week . Whats said one month gets over taken by events soon enough . 3 people have died in their home's without medical care . Even with the small number infected the word overwhelmed is being used . NZ is about to learn a lesson why a health system needs proper funding unlike whats been done since the mid nineties .

Omicron Reducing Intensive Care Admissions ...

Daily dead beginning of the year 4-5 thousand , now running at 12 thousand and rising rapidly . US dead about a quarter of that . Omicron large infection numbers skewing the numbers of new infection while Delta is still killing in increasing numbers . Too early to tell if omicron infection will protect victims from other variants .
In fact. Every straw is to be clutched at desperately irrespective of how outlandish and preposterous the supporting 'rational' is. May allah have mercy upon us. smh.
I do not need to be told ---the virus is increasing were i live. More people ring me to say (stay away for a week) no-one went to hospital though all said it was like a bad cold. Reckon (or hopefully) the virus is running out of steam.

I just wonder if the cold or flue was reported every day how many had caught it, even those who had flu jab???
saying that i wonder if you zealous virus followers will run out of steam rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing roll eyes
Any brand of covid would race through highly populated regions of the world in a much more severe (and tragic fashion) if there were no vaccination program/s to impede it.

Does anyone remember the horror images of a largely unvaccinated (at the time) India, as Delta covid rampaged through; killing countless victims, and maiming many more with long covid (still ongoing) for those unfortunate people?....

Darwinian natural selection can be a cruel thing, riz.....
Agreed,
Whatever.

The World's New Case Rate has Spiked & is Dropping - At least for Now.
That's a Good Thing.

@ 9:45 - Study suggests recovery from Omicron provides significant resistance to Many Covid variants, including Alpha & Delta ...
very happy
That'd be another way of saying Omicron is Natural Vaccine against Covid.

cowboy
Trouble is its omicron that has spiked the numbers and is dropping , if it gives victims immunity that would be good . Wishful thinking at this point .
cowboy
Not according to valid credible medical reports.
See Covid Update Presentation Above roll eyes :
@ 9:45 - Study suggests recovery from Omicron provides significant resistance to Many Covid variants, including Alpha & Delta

trouble it's too soon to draw conclusions , more so with the rising daily death rate as I've posted before .
Let's see ...
The MD who provides regular Covid Updates didn't make it up - He cited the study.

The "missing link" guy who doesn't know that fever is part of the body's response to fight infection gives us Nada to refute the cited study

MMmmm ... Close call ... But Honestly? I'm inclined to go with the MD on this one.
