There could be 100x times the covid cases and hospitalizations and I’m still going to go to bars or have parties in my apartment

Covid is over for me (and has been for a long long time). Time to take the red pill buddy

Nah it’s just coming up on election season in the US and a war in the east, Covid became less interesting.

Less over more burying your head in the sand. Hope you got vaccinated and boosted because if it comes back it’s gonna hit hard since literally no one is following precautions and the us basically decided to not give developing countries money to get vaccines

Ibm1 - no shit. Thanks for pointing out the obvious and adding no value to the discussion.

A1 and CBRE - great job replying while ignoring my post.

My point was that it’s meaningless to say that without following up with some potential reasons that explain the variance in number of hospitalizations over time. Why are there peaks and dips if not caused by covid? Covid cases are obviously very well correlated with hospitalizations of people who have Covid. So if you’re gonna say that variance might not be caused by covid, then what’s your cause? Otherwise you’re just raising doubt to muddy the waters on something that is actually pretty straightforward: severity of Covid health impacts is rising again in places like the UK and Hong Kong.

Note that the science tends to change during an election year.

Ture that. In the US the media is busy providing Biden protection services. In 2020 Trump personally spread Covid. In 2021 the un vaccinated were spreading it and causing death counts. In 2022...the year of the mid terms the unvacinnated story has been slowly swept under the carpet as they are usually people of color. The media will now very carefully hush it up so that they don't lose the vote bank for the Dems.

The vaccinated were also spreading it. They just stopped testing vaccinated people yet still saying you can catch Covid while vaccinated

Hi fishes!

I am seeing too many post about awards like rising star, Kudos, etc. People keep telling there managers recommended them for these awards.
My manager doesn't interact much with us. I consider myself as some one who has worked hard for project and other intiatives. Should I ask my manager to consider me and if yes how should I initiate it.
Part of MC team.

Thank you.
