Is it supposed to be surprising no one died from a cold (ie Omicron)?

likesmart

PS1 - it’s not possible to know that. As noted earlier, not every positive test sample is sequenced and the data modeling hasn’t been completed yet to figure out what percentage of current deaths are omicron vs. delta. It really doesn’t matter, anyway.

Omicron…

Just heard that my district will have classroom and live-recording learning. I’m thankful because I now can feed my family, my newborn and a recent-sponsored wife! I’m scared because I’m almost 50 and I’m afraid I might catch the virus and die leaving behind my 1 month baby and a wife who is not legal in the state yet! The USCIS or Trump’s dept. thinks she’s not good enough to be in the US!! We applied for green card and SS card since August 2019!

Applied here and interviewed (presumably to the final round) and didn’t end up with an offer, I think due to the specific experience I’ve had so far. I want to definitely try again in the future when I get more experience. Is there a specific grace period that is ideal? Would this look bad if I apply again since I’ve been rejected before?

I have been in my current job for 1 year now as a booking coordinator for a logistics company.
