I cry for England šŸ“ó §ó ¢ó „ó ®ó §ó æā€”#BA2 hospitalizations have now exceeded old #Omicron’s peak—which were **merely 3 months ago**.

2) Anyone with a brain knows this ā€œmass infectionā€ letting it rip approach of Boris Johnson is just lunacy & morally bankrupt. Not to mention #LongCovid to come. I’m not saying to do lockdowns—not a fan—but there’s so many mitigations to use to keep people safe & economy running.

3) And Boris and Sajid are throwing the elderly under the bus. Hospitalizations in the elderly 85+ in England are so high that they now exceed also the spring 2020 peak!

5) but what about #COVID19 deaths by the actual date of death? It is increasing as well. Though always be careful with actual dates of deaths — they are susceptible to a lot of delays and deaths are always being ā€œbackfilledā€ weeks later. But even now the death trend is obvious.

The people riding the red rollercoaster have been repeatedly lied to (& killed) by the people they trust, and the people riding the green rollercoaster no longer seem to care about those still on the the red because they just want to keep their mask off and get back to normal.

As of today, 14 attendees of the Gridiron Dinner have tested positive for COVID. The next big DC event is the WH Correspondents’ Dinner. Despite CDC’s happy green map there’s a lot of BA.2 circulating. The WHCA dinner should be canceled.

Speaker Pelosi now has COVID. DC is having an obvious surge. I know 10 people with active COVID. Ignore the green CDC map which will only change if hospitals fill. The public needs to know case rates and they are rising. Wear a mask in indoor places. Also, would skip the bars.

What happens when the most infectious #SARSCoV2 variant (BA.2) confronts the largest population in the world with no infection-acquired immunity and low efficacy vaccines w/ poor coverage of the elderly?

Why would CDC stop the mask mandate for air travel just when BA.2 is rising in the US? The only possible sense it would make is political sense. It makes no medical sense.

If the administration ends the mask mandate for air travel at a time when cases are rising in half the states then we’ll know exactly what they are prioritizing now. cbsnews.com/news/airlines-…
