Stay well Budley, they say it should burn through pretty quickly and hopefully some unvaxxed slob isn't taking up your hospital bed. Once the unwashed are recovered or dead, I figure things should let up a bit. A boost before ya go under the knife would be nice though! Good luck bud.
I think your doing what your comfortable doing and that is the same with me. I don’t push the exposure but I also don’t cower in home (well I guess I do but only because I hate people lol). I wouldn’t keep my kids home and I don’t tell my partner to stop cutting hair all day. We do what we need to do but we also get vaccinated, wash hands and wear a mask. Oh and I’m not shaving either lol.
I shaved the beard off a few days back for a better mask fit and fortunately for me I can hunker down. However I don't plan on spending the rest of my life that way, sooner or later we will have to crawl out into the sunlight. I do want to wait until the health care system is in better shape, with therapeutics and testing for early detection and I'll get one of those quick test kits when more become available. If you are at risk and the hospitals aren't swamped, early detection is important for potential treatment, don't wait if you've got health issues.
Your daughter is very smart. 61 isn’t old at all. I hang out with 80 and 90 year olds quite a bit. I hope you can get your operation soon and get to feeling better. I am glad you don’t have Cancer.I’m on CPAP (15 years) but I’m thinking that’s a bonus if I get it lol. At least I can force air in lol. Also just turned 61. Your right though re I know lots that are scared to death like my kids, but for me not themselves
Ya I’m glad too
! And I don’t feel old 
. My best friend just had his esophagus removed and he now has a hole in his throat . But atleast he’s alive 
. Cancer is an awful thing to deal with and it seems to not be choosy as he was in perfect health except for being a heavy pot smoker for many years. Our trade (refrigeration) is not know for its longevity due to the chemicals involved and the air we breath working on HVAC equipment. And like I said with the pills keeping it under control the operation is not really a priority so it seems. I really don’t care to go near the hospital right now if not needed lol.
Can he eat your delicious gummies?Ya I’m glad too

From working this pandemic front line I have seen this omicron wave cause more infections but generally less severe symptoms and fewer hospitalisations. The working hypothesis is that either people have been previously infected or they have enough of an immune response from previous vaccines to prevent the more severe presentations. Omicron is transmissible by aerosols according to a U.K. government advisor. The good news is that so many people will have immunity from omicron infection that it will downgrade the pandemic. Imo

The WHO cautions that just like previous variants, Omicron is hospitalising and killing people.

Yup, drove up too see him and show him how to make them

You read the article? You didn’t cause it says they aren’t there due to Covid, they just happened to be tested positive while there.Hospitalizations skyrocket in kids too young for COVID shots
Hospitalizations of U.S. children under 5 with COVID-19 soared in recent weeks to their highest level since the pandemic began, according to government data released Friday on the only age group not yet eligible for the vaccine.
I'm a covid virgin and afraid that first time is going to hurt.
Well that’s kind of the point re the hospitals swamped
. And they have been for quite some time. My situation is being controlled so it’s not a priority. But the long term use of the meds is not recommended so ya Omni really fucked it up again . This whole situation is becoming a real pain in the ass . I’ve got a few test kits but have not had the need to use any as I feel great so far touch wood.
Ya I’m a bit concerned as well, I’m guessing I’ll find out soon enough but our numbers (health unit) seem to be levelling and maybe dropping a bit. But the hospitals are struggling with people off and cases.
Not to worry, the hospitals will be full of kids because of covid soon enough, school will soon start back up in many places.
Yea, the numbers I saw a few days ago was 91% of team blue had the jab, while only 61% of red team.
Half of the new cases is folks who were in hospital for something else and tested positive for the Rona without knowing they had it. I assume they are vaxxed. I saw on the news tonight that still almost all of the cases where folks come in to the hospital for covid are unvaxed.
