    Between the anti vaxer's and the vaxed that are a-systematic the case counts will be deflated. If someone gets sick enough to go to hospital they are tested then.
    I guess it gives assumptions on how bad it is for certain groups.
    It will soon be like addressing all the flu outbreaks, and they do count hospitalizations snd deaths for them.get your annual flu/Corona/Booster shot.

    I think that they managed to convince the entire Christian world (even before the Catholic church) to accept a Jew as the son of god - so this goes even further back than 300 years...

    Now that he is saying it is the Scottish people, I am even more confused, because of Mel Gibson, of course.

    When I moved to Branson, MO I asked a local on the fishing dock where he took his recycling. He launched into a speech about how recycling was a yankee, democratic-driven agenda founded by the Jews at the NY Times. Then he almost assaulted me when I seemed surprised and skeptical.

    got married in Clark County, Nevada.

    I do have to wonder how many people got covid to/from/in Vegas and tested outside of Vegas after leaving.

    My uncle's friend's neighbor got the vaccine, and a cannonball went right through his chest.

    I don't find that article very persuasive. Of course deaths are a better indicator of deaths. Duh.
    But if you want to predict how many cremations you need to do next month, you don't look at the # of deaths today. You look to see if hospitalizations are rising.

    Nor do I buy the idea that hospitalizations and case counts are 'completely delinked'. That's a vast overstatement.
    Take a look at the case count and hospitalization graphs, and you'll actually see a pretty good correlation - even with omicron.

    So, we get tested every time we have a common cold symptom even if we have been vaxed and/or have been positive. Thats exactly why we dont track all the various contagious flu's out there. Its getting like a dog chasing its own tail.
    Get your shot/booster and stay out of the hospital and continue to live a great life.

    I'm not arguing for testing. I've never been tested myself. I'm saying the testing data we have isn't useless.

    Also, if you are not obese it is harder for the cannon ball to hit you.
