By Samuel Strait, Reporter at Large – December 27, 2021 Inspite of all the manufactured hysteria over the new Covid-19 Variant, The Omicron version, it looks like the human race will survive another winter. Early reporting indicates that for most people, they aren't even aware that they are infected, hence a rush to get tested. Apparently few are aware of the recent discovery that testing isn't the best way to find out whether or not you are infected. Seems the main test, the RT-PCR test is flawed to the point that the CDC is asking test laboratories to go to a different test protocol. Too many false positives is the word from the FDA. But likely this will not stop all the "Karens" out there who believe everything the media regurgitates about Covid. Looks like the flood of patients to emergency rooms over fears of Covid is not well received by those same emergency rooms nationwide. Most prospective patients are being sent home with symptoms similar to the common cold. Hospitals in New York State are sending nearly as many home as appear for service in the same day. Looks like for most that's the best that an Omicron virus infection can produce. Of course that isn't going to stop many perspective Covid fear mongerers from preaching to the end of the world obsessives. Mental health officials are now discovering a new disorder among people who hold the current Covid narrative and its "catastrophic" potential to kill people as a means to lash out at those that take a more measured and educated view. Recently an over wrought "Karen" on a flight from Atlanta to Houston had to be arrested for assaulting an elderly man on the plane she was riding because he had lowered his mask to eat. People have literally been conditioned by media and the health care establishment over the last two years to have an irrational fear of the Corona virus. In December of 2020 the CDC reported the following survival numbers for people infected by Covid in four age groups which indicate there is little to fear for anyone. Survival rates are age 0-19 – 99.99997, age 20-49 – 99.9998, age 50 – 69 – 99.995, and age 70 + 99.946. Less than the mortality rate of the flu on any given year. Naturally none of this information will be widely spread and the government/media induced panic will continue. The huge numbers being reported as deaths from Covid are fraudulent. Months ago, the CDC has reported the real numbers as less than 50,000 for the entire two year period. The Covid virus has a mortality rate of less than the common flu and common cold combined. Unfortunately those that refuse to learn the truth will continue to babble about "the science", which doesn't exist and wail about maskless and unvaccinated people making them feel "unsafe". The same people will remain steadfast in the fantasy that the vaccines will protect them from infection and masking up will slow the spread. No amount of data and experience will convince them otherwise. The hope remains as more people wake up and realize that none of these measures work and it is safe to be cautious and ignore the obvious attempts by petty bureaucrats, the Fauci's, and the media to control them and get on with life.
