To be fair there's no information on what strain they had, Delta is still a large number of cases in the US.

Correct plus merging classes basically means that nobody learns anything and that’s with experienced teachers who know many of the students .. put a supply teacher in charge of a mixed ability group is disastrous

it's kind of difficult to go by the number of cases due to the holiday and the lack of test kits

well strip those 16, 17 year olds of rights to go to festivals, party's then


you'll see how fast they get vaccinated when you do that




no need to threaten me with any of that since i have never ever socialized pre-covid either

seems sometimes i am the only one with ''common sense''


biggest risks to society in terms of covid are those who more actively socialize not people like me who are antisocial and fully introverted, so trying to slow down the virus there is what is most important what needs to be done

in the usa they typically have 15-25k deaths from flu every year. They have had over 800k deaths from covid in 2 years. If that doesnt spell out the difference, i don't know what does.

When the covid deaths per year become comparable with typical flu levels then we can start treating it the same.

The problem is that there are people stating completely opposite figures to show that Covid is nothing to worry about

you can have a free will and opinion when you start paying rent and the food bills

until then do as your parents tell you in their house
