the UK hospitals are not filling their ICU"s with covid omicron patients either. And only 38 or so have died with it. ALL countries are reporting the same thing. I don't know why Canadian health experts haven't figured this out.

@lightonstillwaters6789 29 in the UK so far, after having it in country for a month. 120,000+ new cases are showing up each day. It would be hard to get a virus that's LESS lethal than this one. And they won't say whether the ppl that have died have died WITH covid or OF covid. The first death had raging emphysema.

one article in the New York Post said that Pfizer's vax is lasting about 10 wks against Omicron. Then the immunity drops right off. ps YES there will be 10,ooo cases per day in ONt. Almost all of them will be sitting at home with the sniffles and a headache. In South Africa...largely unvaxxed.... the ICU's are NOT filling up and only a hundred + have died with Omicron...in a country of 60 million, with hundreds of thousands infected.

only because if you travel, some countries want you to have at least 2 of the same vaccine to allow you in. You're contagious for 2 days BEFORE you show signs. and you have to be sick for 3 days before the test turns positive. So after you get sick, you need to wait for 3 days to get tested for it turns positive.

@KAlly-dp4yy you're absolutely right! UK is estimating that 50% of the winter colds ppl are having so far are actually Omicron covid. Omicron picked up a chunk of cold virus (same family of viruses) so now the main signs are sniffles, headache and so tired!! NO fever or loss of taste or smell with Omicron .... Happy new Year's to you and yours!!

@КанадаКреативно they're doing an excellent job!! Pfizer made $7.82 billion in their 2nd qtr this year...in just 3 mos! from the vaccine. Happy New Year's to you and yours!! ps i 'm just being curious....your name looks Russian. Do Russians have Christmas AFTER New Year's or do they just not bother with New Year's at all? Apologies if that's too personal!
