There are no breathless reports of overwhelmed hospitals and morgues and everyone I know who has contracted omicron had symptoms as similar and brief as a bad cold. At what point do we stop overreacting and just start taking it in stride like we do with every other virus?

Exactly. This is what I'm talking about when I speak to the irrationality of our society. The numbers do not suggest this is a serious threat to us whatsoever. The problem is that delta and omicron are competing simultaneously, which means that people can't be sure which variant they are catching. Again, the solution is simple, imo.... if you're young, healthy, or vaccinated, live your life. If you're none of those things, you're taking a risk by entering the public domain. Make the choice that makes you feel the most comfortable.

I realize that, but of course you still think I'm wrong though. Maybe go re-read Statement #2 above that I was talking about and you'll figure it out.

Ugh. Don't be that guy. That was a good faith response to your point. Please clarify.
