CoVID-19
Sorry to hear this. I hope you pull through with no significant setbacks. If I'm not mistaken you have kids too.. I hope they stay healthy. Good luck.
Say strong @ALEXIS_DH
Boooo...........
Covid has hit our house too. Me and my 13 year old son both have it. My wife and 2 girls tested negative yesterday, but this morning my wife's sense of smell is gone, so she probably has it too.
Symptoms have been odd. I had a really runny nose for 2 days, then tested negative, 3 days later I tested positive. My son had a fever for 3 days, and tested positive right away. As of today, we both feel ok. I have a slight cough, and he has a slightly sore throat.
The DR Said that we need to quarantine for 5 days from when we first got symptoms, but thats already passed. Were just going to hunker down in the house for another 10 days or so, and only go out for necessities. Thankfully I work from home, so that wont be effected...

Get well soon! All the best wishes for your family as well!
the wealth vector
Wife's mother and sister's family were supposed to visit tomorrow. Her sisters husband had a direct exposure to his sisters husband this past week, who has now tested positive. So that visit is not happening.
Possibly, but in reality it’s just the “tourist towns overrun with Mouth- breathing tourists” vector, so maybe a Venn diagram would be better?
University of Washington health system is cancelling non essential procedures for two weeks expecting a flood of Covid patients.
Only if you're talking "seasonal population"
Those aren't populous dense areas. They're resort areas. Which is my point. You'll notice denver doesn't look that bad with a far higher density, but arguably fewer visitors per resident.

resort skiing, the well-known activity of the financially strapped
vail, aspen and jackson, the common man's town
What I said is entirely accurate. You'll notice my area isn't doing that. That's because the vast majority of visitors are from california. Those other places not so much.
Omicron is not as bad as Delta...says the Danish government. No need to stop the schools from reopening 5/1 with in person classes. Why would you want to protect your kids? Soon: speeding in front of schools, underaged drinking and smoking will be encouraged.
Oh cool so they run their mouths just as badly as the idiots here in the name of bidness as usual.
Shit, 70% of our customers at Snow King are never-Evers from Alabama, Florida, Texas, and Miami. Camo Starter jackets and all.
And that's why you should be wearing a scuba tank and be wrapped in a plastic bag right now.
good luck
looks ugly out there........
Nothing to worry about, the incidence/100,000/week is just 1638.5. Ireland is higher than we are, so go team and make it happen. We can catch them to reclaim our #1 spot!

Valid point.
Daaaaamn, 1600/100000 is a metric assload!Nothing to worry about, the incidence/100,000/week is just 1638.5. Ireland is higher than we are, so go team and make it happen. We can catch them to reclaim our #1 spot!
We’re at 35/100000 per day, so call it 250/100000 for the week in my area and it seems like everyone has is no matter where you turn. You’re almost 7x more covidified, what’s your local vaccination rate looking like?
On the topic of vaccines, wife’s friend who caught it back in the olden times pre delta and has had all kinds of fucked up heart issues and other medical oddities ever since has been relying on homeopathy pretty much ever since. Her “healer” advised against the vaccine because it interferes with oregano or some shit. Anyway, turns out cumin oil can’t cure heart issues nor prevent catching the Rona a second time. She just tested positive again, because of course, and she’s freaking the fuck out because she doesn’t want her heart issues to get worse. It remains unclear if the vax would have prevented it, but clearly lavender was ineffective
She just needs healing crystals, meditation, thoughts + prayers, and a chiropractor.
Or perhaps just buy a bunch of ducks for more direct quackery.
@kidwoo is spot on. Up to the right from Summit county (Vail, et al.) is Grand County (looks like Ohio). They only have Winter Park, which is a more limited out of state crowd. To the left is Routt County, where Steamboat Springs is located. It has a more out of state/higher $$ visiting population
Marines kick out 206 troops for refusing Covid-19 vaccine
Overall, 95 percent of all active-duty Marines have received at least the first dose.

About 78% of the total population, 25%+ of the population received their booster.
That is what worries me most. Basically everybody I know that catches Covid is fully vaccinated. The kids and young adults are clearly driving it, but until it was too late nobody wanted to shut down the schools, the nightlife and the party scene. The Danish strategy of nearly exclusively relying on vaccination failed here. Restricting gatherings, especially indoors, and mandating mask usage would have been more effective coming into the winter months, especially with omicron. But nobody could know that a new variant would be coming
...except some experts that warned all along. But who listens to those guys anyways when there are parties and concerts to attend.
This is what I have been most concerned with throughout the pandemic, now it's come to fruition.

The Covid-19 case surge is altering daily life across the US. Things will likely get worse, experts warn | CNN
The US is ringing in the new year amid a Covid-19 surge experts warn is exploding at unprecedented speed and could alter daily life for many Americans during the first month of 2022.
www.cnn.com
About 5 times the number of cases as last winter's surge but with only 65% of the hospitalizations.48% of folks boosted, still incidence/100,000/week moves up to 1737.5.
Is it time for me to make a girth joke yet?
I think it relevant. That's a daily rate that's 65%, not the total hospitalizations on a given day yeah?
edit: just checked one of the other trackers, it's total hospitalizations on the NYT one.....

expanding even further.....
Sun Valley, ID higher than Boise
Bend, OR higher than Portland
Big Sky MT apparently in the same county as Bozeman so that's a tough one. But higher than Missoula, Billings, Helena etc....
Wait until in 2 weeks.
But I agree, it looks like the vaccination helps to keep the hospitilization at bay. Still, if you let it rip through a population that is vaccinated, what are the chances that we do not get a "new and improved" Danish variant soon?
Oh, fuck off already, 2022

First case of florona detected in Israel, a combined infection of Covid-19 and flu
Florona is a combined infection of coronavirus and flu. It is not a new variant of Covid-19, however, it is a double infection. Till now, there is no proper definition of florona by the World Health Organization (WHO) but it said that “it is possible to catch both diseases at the same time”.
