    Unless a more dangerous varient evolves Omicron should infect everyone who hasn't been vaccinated by summer at latest.

    Then hospitals should see relief and the pandemic should be over.

    Maybe. I don't think we know yet that having Omicron once gives you sufficient protection against getting it again.

    Good point. But it seems logical that even if you can catch it, if everybody has been infected or vaccinated hospitalizations should revert back to prepandemic norms.

    Barring a more dangerous varient like we haven't yet seen.

    My doc told me yesterday that along with Corona we are entering the flu season which will increase hospitalizations. Then in 3 weeks or so they will start to decline.

    https://www.businessinsider.com/covid-isolation-fauci-shortened-cdc-work-jobs-economy-coronavirus-economy-2021-12?


    Fauci says that the shortened COVID-19 isolation guidelines were designed to 'get people back to jobs'


    • Dr. Anthony Fauci said the CDC reduced its coronavirus isolation guidelines to get people back to work.
    • The CDC cut the isolation period for people with asymptomatic COVID-19 cases from 10 days to five.
    • Fauci said this would let the economy run "not with a zero risk, but with a markedly diminished risk."

    This is aging well.



    https://abc6onyourside.com/news/local/ohio-coronavirus-update-december-29-2021
    COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio has set a new COVID-19 record with over 20,000 new cases being reported in the state on Wednesday.

    The Ohio Department of Health reported 20,320 new coronavirus cases and 592 more hospitalizations.

    That breaks the record for Ohio's highest number of COVID-19 cases ever reported in a single day, which was previously set on Dec. 23, 2021, with 15,989 new COVID-19 cases.
