A stupid question, since there's pretty much zero chance that Trump would even let him stay on.

I don't think he's explicitly said it before. But more importantly, in order to fire Fauci Trump would have to issue an executive order similar to the one he issued in 2020 allowing the reclassification of certain federal positions.

I'd bet that Fauci is more concerned about that than having to work with Trump again. Retiring would at least temporarily remove the incentive to reissue such an order.

New York City is expected to enter the high COVID-19 alert level in the coming days, and health officials are strongly recommending wearing masks in public indoor settings.

The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene is expected to issue an advisory that urges all residents to use high-quality masks when indoors and in a public setting. Details: https://7ny.tv/3Pqwste

What are your current thoughts about Covid now?

My neighbors mom tested positive a day after they had a graduation get together. Nobody else in the family tested positive and if they did, symptoms were very mild.

has the virus lost potency as far as death rate? Is the vaccines that effective? The virus is obviously more infectious, but it is more deadly?

I’m not letting my guard down and it seems that I have created a new normal for myself.

Just as deadly but more people are vaccinated so it doesn't have the same effect. The problem is if there is a variant that evades all protections.

I wear my mask and stay out of crowds because I am around many seniors. Plus, I am high risk due to having asthma..

Same. Still being extra cautious as I work with the immunocompromised.

Talked to some oncall coworkers who noted they got sick away from work. They had been double vaxxed by then, but not yet boosted. Vigilante with their own routines, but housemates got ill and brought it home with them. I asked them individually how it played out, and they noted it was like a bad flu for them, and they were glad to have been vaxxed and not more sick. They are in their 20s from seperate households and had not worked with us in recent months.

My thoughts haven't changed.

People may be experiencing milder symptoms outwardly but I'm still just as concerned with the long term, unseen/unknown effects which aren't obvious or known.

More importantly, if the milder symptoms are the result of more people being vaccinated, then what happens as time passes and the effectiveness of the initial vaccination and booster shots start to diminish which is inevitable?

Especially since they've said nothing about a second booster for people under 50 and who are healthy which they may not even have funding for.

All of this while the virus continues to mutate and adapt.

I honestly feel like they'll be another (or multiple) variant that will emerge over the summer which will be just as deadly as its predecessors and hit us hard in the fall/winter months just like before :smh:

The omicron wave has been deadlier than the Delta and 2020 waves. I'm not sold on the mild part either, long covid could end up causing medical problems years down the line even though the infection itself may have been mild.

I think that 2023 may be worse than 2020. With infections rising in America, China, and in other places, it's only a matter of time before we get a completely new variant. Given the lack of funding, if a new vaccine is needed, Americans may not be able to get a hold of it even if they are able to pay out of pocket. That's in addition to not being able to put the genie back in the bottle as far as masking and shutdowns.

I hate to say it, but we could get to two million official deaths. The country as a whole didn't give a shit about the first million so I know they won't care about a second one.

YO! My whole damn family caught that shyt last week! I went the whole lockdown without catching it and got hit from either my punk ass mother-in-law bringing it in or my wife getting it when she went to the movies on her birthday. I was able to take a business trip to Atlanta, take the family to the circus, the movies, free comic day all while not getting us infected and in one Mothers Day weekend two separate households get caught!!!

I am the same way, I just have this new normal now that include masks and not trying to be on top of people.

I think it is a little bit of both it losing its potency and the vaccines being effective. Like most viruses that mutate, it's rarely as strong as its predecessor. So what it gained in infectioness it lost in impact.

It's been deadlier to the non-vaccinated. You might have a point on the long covid, but only time will tell.

I think the next "million" will be different (fcuk you for making me the optimist now!) You killed off all the morons and contrarians that didn't take virus seriously. People that listened to personalities that would dispel the vaccine while HAVING the vaccine. So now you have a savvier and cynical crowd that will hopefully take this more seriously. But again only time will tell.

Wypipol don’t believe fat meat is greasy!



I just got back from a 10 day cruise to Alaska and several people in the FB group reported that they have covid, But this dumb white bitch here is a special kind of stupid.





Yes, both my husband and myself now have Covid. Why did Carnival not tell us that there was Covid on the ship?



________________



You agreed to this when you checked in for your cruise.

________________





They probably didn’t know.



________________





Not trying to be snarky, but with a few thousand people onboard, why would you assume there weren't covid cases?








We disembarked 6 days ago, if you are positive it is not from the ship, but maybe from the transport to get home.



And we all know that the risk was present, we were advised to wear the mask but no one did it (me first I admit) so I do not see myself turning against Carnival even if my wife and I are positive since the cruise.



Anyway I wish you a speedy recovery

I was well aware of the contract and risk. I simply wish that Carnival would have informed us that there were so many cases on the ship







?!?
