  1. Like I said, it may be bad, but impossible to tell from the article you linked. They are not showing us hospitalization rates. So I guess I don't see enough evidence to say that Fauci's optimism was premature. Didn't everyone expect this thing to spread like crazy through South Africa?
  2. Based on what numbers?
  3. Its hard to tell how bad it is with the numbers in that. Using whole numbers in regards to cases, but percentage increase in regards to hospitalizations. Omicron is supposed to be more contagious than Delta. And if cases rise by 700% in a single week (2300 to 16,000), I would expect hospitalizations to rise by a similar measurement. Which is what 30-40% increase in Covid beds would be. But that still doesn't mean its bad. There's a big difference between going from 1 Covid patient to 7 Covid patients in a week or going from 1,000 patients to 7,000 patients. Both similar increases, but vastly different hospitalization rates. What is the hospitalization rate? What is an "alarming number of children under the age of 5?" I wish these articles would always just lay out the data. It may be terrible and if so, we need to know. But feel like they try and present it in a way to get a "welp" or "that....seems really bad."
  4. I'm sure they do, and I agree.
  5. True, but most states have fetal homicide laws. So while endangering may not be equal, taking a life is. In California, it's the unlawful killing of a fetus beyond 6 to 7 weeks of development.
  6. beat to the punch
  7. Pretty much all Kroger pharmacies do antibody testing. Just go to their website and find the one closest to you and you can make an appointment. That's what I did.
  8. Pharmacy
  9. I'm coming up on 9 months since my 2md Moderna, so probably due for a booster. But figured I'd at least get an antibody test before doing so. Only did the finger prick rapid test, but it came back positive for IGG antibodies. No clue when that happened. I've certainly had little coughs or congestion at times in the last 18 months, but never anything significant or a fever (other than after shot 2).
  10. That's how they've always done it. Wilkinson, Switzer, Stoops, Riley...all assistants with no HC experience. I think the only guy they've hired since 1950 with HC experience was Schnellenberger.
  11. Half a billion just for the middle infield.
