Please read this post on COVID, OMICRON, and government overreach all the way to the end.
Brief Current COVID Summary: Over 70% of all diagnosed COVID-19 cases are OMICRON according to the most recent statistics. So far there has been 1 death in the United States and up to 12 possible in the UK. Connected to all of these deaths were secondary health conditions which likely contributed to the fatal outcomes. President Biden recently provided a grim prediction for the unvaccinated – a winter of death for them and their families. He also told Americans that Christmas and New Year’s can be celebrated and families could get together – but only if they are vaccinated.
Treatments continue to be developed to fight the rapidly spread virus including the recently authorized PAXLOVID. PAXLOVID is the first oral at-home treatment that should decrease hospitalizations as well as deaths. This treatment protocol includes a 5-day course of three PAXLOVID pills given twice per day. Effectiveness is rated at 89% keeping those infected out of the hospital and away from death.
Cutting Through the BS
The Omicron variant is, in fact, spreading like wildfire across the United States. Collected data can be used in many ways to suggest a variety of different things depending on the perspective of the presenter. We all know that within the general population there is approx a 98.5% rate of survivability after contracting COVID(and improving with each new variant). The Paxlovid pill has shown that those taking it have an 89% reduction rate for hospitalization or death in the test groups. All sides of the COVID issue will utilize these numbers in different ways to further their agendas.
Here’s the bottom line: Developed treatments are reducing hospitalizations and deaths. The Omicron variant and very likely subsequent variants will continue to get weaker providing lower health risks. The virus itself is becoming less of a threat with each passing day.
BTW – the Plaxlovid treatment is not based on some new science. This type of medication has been used to treat HIV for many years.
Slap of Reality
I’m so sick of hearing about COVID. I’m quite certain that I’m not alone. The MSM continues to pump their fear-mongering to fill news time where Trump as President used to be focussed on. Ratings continue to drop while crime rates continue to increase. Others recklessly spew misinformation from multiple angles causing confusion and providing “facts” leading to potentially deadly decisions. With the COVID virus doing what viruses do and decreasing in strength as new variants are born, the risk is dwindling for most. Plaxlovid – based on early studies – should represent the “light at the of the tunnel”. Normality should be right around the corner for ALL OF US. Is that happening? Nope. Big government will NOT give up power. New York and Boston are two cities where to even go into a restaurant proof of ineffective vaccinations must be provided.
We no longer have a COVID problem. We have a tyranny problem!!
Beyond the extreme inability to make personal health choices regarding vaccinations, treatments, Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine, etc. – the government’s overreach by mandating companies require vaccinations and/or testing is huge. School systems and numerous other businesses having mandates are continuing us down a path of division. The inability to freely discuss the issues as social media platforms “fact-check” and delete opinions continue to hammer the 1st amendment.
The people will eventually get sick of this and put a stop to it, or at least that’s what should happen. So far I’ve seen little.

Nope ! They will his BS stop !
Back in the 1917 to 20 the people put a stop to it !!

Have a Safe and Hopeful New Year. New Years day we will be having a cookie making -baking day with our three grand children.It had to be postponed pre -Christmas due to icy roads.
Grocery stores up here are expensive but seem at the moment to be laden with food and supplies.
A reminder to order your garden seeds and supplies early. and or to sign up for your Community Farms. ( CSA)
God Bless… Arlene
Same to you Arlene!! Happy New Years!
Seems its time for the unvaxxed to start forming businesses to cater to only the unvaxxed and tell those that have been jabbed they are not allowed inside.
I see no need for that. People should respect freedom of choice. If someone wants to get vaxed have at it. If they don’t – live with the decision. Pretty simple to me.
