So most all the deaths were from previous variants while Omicron has become the dominant strain now and symptoms are mild.

Passengers on 4 cruises slam liners as COVID breaks out
At least four cruise ships reported Omicron outbreaks on board this week, and were turned away from their destinations as the CDC said it was investigating 68 ships on Monday.
- 'It was disgusting,' said Kimberly Kelley, who was a passenger on a Carnival Cruise Line Freedom
- 'We didn't touch one pool on that ship because everyone's in there all over each other - no one's wearing masks, nobody cared,' Kelley told CNN
- Her ship was turned away from Bonaire and Aruba and delayed in Curacao after a 'small number' of COVID cases broke out onboard
- In San Diego, the Holland America Cruise Koningsdam was forced to return to port after local officials turned it away from its destination in Puerto Vallarta
- Officials in Curacao and Aruba also turned away Royal Carribean's Symphony of the Seas,' the world's biggest cruise ship, due to 48 positive COVID cases
- On Monday, the CDC announced that it was investigating 68 cruise liners that had COVID outbreaks

Do you realize how stupid that sounds? We have been in this pandemic for almost two years. Omicron is a couple of months old. Our treatments are better today. Symptoms are milder for vaccinated people. Omicron seems to infect the younger children, where Delta did not.
We simply don't know enough at this point.
Omicron's Effect Won't Be as Mild as Hoped
It’s too soon to know if the variant causes milder COVID, but its transmissibility and ability to evade vaccines are still cause for concern

People move to Florida to die, and avoid taxes and snow. Two outta three ain't bad.

That’s why they USED to move to Florida. Now they move here for those reasons, as well as freedom from crazy Covid mandates and overreach by government. They also move here to enjoy living.
He's just bitter that you're not locked down...
Lets look at a locked down mandated type of situation....
1 in 50 Manhattan Residents Infected With COVID in the Last Week
The word "surge" is almost insufficient to describe what's going on in the city; the citywide transmission rate has risen 10x since the start of the month, more in some areas.
Damn... Maybe they need to go around and deadbolt them all into their apartments...lol

Or maybe we should all get vaccinated? Lock downs don't work. Vaccines work.
At preventing hospitalization and death. Which is why I've had all of my shots. But if "Just get vaccinated!" is all Democrats are gonna keep screaming every time mass-infections hit they're gonna be in for a bad time.
The Risk of Vaccinated COVID Transmission Is Not Low
After my son got sick, I dived into the data, and it turns out vaccinated people can and do spread COVID
"In a November press conference, Tedros Ghebreyesus, the director-general of the WHO, said that the vaccines were 60 percent protective against spreading the virus prior to the arrival of the delta variant. That number has dropped to 40 percent post-Delta. Omicron may worsen the problem, if, as suspected, it is more transmissible and leads to many more breakthrough infections."

Yeah, yeah, Oh yeah....What condition my condition was in. Lol!
How stupid is it to ignore the lack of deaths in other parts of the world? Already well established in South Africa that Omicron symptoms are mild and there were no deaths(or was it 1?). The fact is our politicians are playing on our worst fears. Wait, I mean Democratic politicians are. I honestly thought you were smart enough to realize you're being played.Do you realize how stupid that sounds? We have been in this pandemic for almost two years. Omicron is a couple of months old.
