Yup. Ever day stats are coming out literally showing everyone gets it. -- nm - MDH Dec 21, 06:26 3

  - I’m the opposite of fear mongering. We are all getting it, if you’re vaxxed you’ll be okay. Don’t give false hope that we’re all avoiding this. -- nm - MDH Dec 21, 06:36 1
    - agreed. BUT wear a mask, limit large crowds and stuff too cause why chance it. (had this discussion with the wife when her family were coming) -- nm - Beaker Dec 21, 06:38
Sure, but that's the same for all of COVID. - Inigo Dec 21, 06:12 5
- There’s no official word, but there were estimates that more than 90% of people that had Omicron did not know. -- nm - MDH Dec 21, 06:27 3
  - this could also be a factor of testing though. Where the US makes people pay more people aren't tested. Up here the lineups for free tests are massive - Beaker Dec 21, 06:37
  - So…his 1/10th stat….is accurate. So 6.6% of the nation. That’s … not all. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 21, 06:30 1
    - Also, I'm being very liberal in the 400k case number. That's going back to early September. - Inigo Dec 21, 06:39
- oh, i get it, but people forget that not all cases get counted. -- nm - Candie Cane Dec 21, 06:13
