agreed, doesn't seem to be shutting down much of anything besides sporting events
shopping, bars, churches will be near capacity this afternoon and evening
the Hawaii bowl would be decent entertainment
I got doing it last year, when we didn't have fans, or a vaccine, that we were testing the athletes and coaches, because they were the only people in the building, and that's the only source of transmission. Yet now we are continuing to test asymptomatic players,  who are vaccinated well above the national average, while still having stadiums full of people in close proximity, stadium employees, and so on, who arent testing.   The Hawaii Bowl could have had a full stadium of unvaccinated COVID positive fans, and they would have played the game, never the wiser

More evidence is that omicron is more contagious and less serious, which really could be excellent news longer term.

This is where I'm at with it.
I got the 2 shots.
I got the booster.
I'm 41 years old and have taken like 2 sick days off work in my life.
.
If all of that doesn't allow me to go out into the world, then what's the point?
i think most rational folks have landed in the same spot.

A friend is in the hospital with it right now. Got me highly worried over it. 

Getting dribs and drabs of info about his experience, I think we probably understated how much is sucks to be hospitalized. Just seems depressing and miserable. 

And while I know the weight thing was overplayed in the whole process of this thing, my friend is still a bigger guy, and lung issues put pressure on the vascular system, which is strained more by being bigger. 

Still, crossing my fingers and slightly fretting.

Fingers crossed for your friend.

Not sure. He got symptoms, tested negative, then tested again and tested positive. It was very strange, and unfortunate because if the first test had been positive, they could have gotten a jump on the treatment and it would’ve helped.

Is he vaccinated?

All things considered, I don't see how things could have been done differently.

Try to protect the vulnerable and try to go about life and business.

there sure has been plenty of wailing and nashing of teeth because folks wanted things done differently

Of course if you lost a loved one or a business you have a much different perspective
