Who doesn't know anyone who's had covid?
This is one of the tragic outcomes of Covid myopia and fear mongering. An outcome that was avoidable. Your odds of dying from cancer are significantly greater than dying from Covid (although your cancer survival odds are much better if its caught early), yet cancer screenings were canceled for the first few months of the pandemic because they were considered elective. Then it appears patients avoided cancer screenings due to the fear of Covid.
Compare annual rates. Cancer and covid are about equal. Both are about 600K per year for the period you are talking about. (the period when people were most likely to delay cancer screenings: April 2020 to April 2021)This is one of the tragic outcomes of Covid myopia and fear mongering. An outcome that was avoidable.

Then it appears patients avoided cancer screenings due to the fear of Covid.
And, if people had not changed their behavior last spring, it’s fair to say that covid would have been a significantly larger cause of death. The wave we saw last winter would have happened in April/May 2020, back when the fatality rate was higher because we did not know how to treat it. Remember, you’re talking about a time when all we had was ventilators. The same number of infections would have caused a lot more deaths.
That fear mongering delayed health screenings for cancer, which cost lives. The same panic delayed the main covid spike 6-8 months, which saved lives.
It is likely that the cancer screening would have been delayed no matter what you did. If the local death count goes up, people are going to avoid the hospital. You also would not have had the nursing staff to do the screenings. They all would have been treating covid patients.
On the positive side, in the US 31,522,263 (and counting) people have recovered from Covid.

Reminder: The CDC/NIH/Fauci-backed pause of the J&J vaccine did more to invigorate vaccine hesitancy in the US than any other factor.

What stage does it begin to bother you or better yet when is it not just Covid fear mongering?
An average of nearly 53 children a day were hospitalized with confirmed cases of Covid-19 from August 31 to September 6, according to CDC data.

I’m sure 3x’s that were admitted to the Er for broken bones. It’s fear lingering when you are consistently fed numbers out of context and extrapolating the exceptions as if they are the rule. (Ie Anti Vax focusing on the small number of medical issues that arise post vax)
How many kids are admitted to the hospital each year with the flu? We never tracked data like that until now so there is no context.
Yet at the US Open, College Football, etc, there are 10’s of thousands people in an arena/stadium yelling and screaming Sam’s masks yet our kids are in classrooms for hours at a time wearing masks and being told they could be killing their family if they don’t wear a mask (fear mongering).
31,667,507 recovered in the US as of today.

Link? Out of how many children - all the US? Does this only count those hospitalized because of COVID versus those who went to the hospital for another reason and tested positive? Lazy post.
It is low if it is all the US and simply those who tested positive. I mean, are we talking about an average of 1 child per day per state is testing positive in the hospital? I would have thought a lot more would have tested positive given how contagious the delta variant is, under 12 are not vaccinated and school is back in session. Google search reveals about 74.2 million children under 18 in US. Math tells me 1% of that is 742,000. Divide that by 53 and get 14,000. So, at this rate in 14,000 days (38+ years), 1% of the children in the US will test positive for COVID in hospitals. You can't possibly be talking about in all the US, can you?

Wow...so about 1 kid per state.
Clearly an issue right?
NO!!!
Context matters. You have none.
Kids are not at risk.

That’s cute.. 2100+ people died yesterday in the US due to Covid.. how many kids lost a parent! 270+ in Texas alone.. number 2 cause of death now.
Kids are at risk when their parent dies early in life.. The opportunists pushing anti mask anti vaccine rhetoric and hiding behind kids is disgusting..

You are on the toilet do your own research.. get your own link
Do you not believe that natural immunity from prior infection provides better protection from reinfection than vaccinated immunity?

Hahaha! EOTL, you never fail to amuse - although I do have mixed feelings about being amused by your mental illness. Get some help, man.

When you get the vaccine your body has a controlled response to the virus.
When you get Covid 19 your body ramps up differently. Not controlled in some individuals.
Unvaccinated ….what stage will you go to…? keep playing doctor and find out.

You seriously have no idea what you are talking about. There is no question that natural immunity is just better. What the conversation needs to be centered around are the risks of achieving natural immunity. Vaccination plays a role, especially in reducing severity of illness in the at risk population. Vaccines obviously are waning - we knew this would happen from the very beginning. To completely discount the already infected is just asinine and medically dishonest.
Basically you are a mouth piece, sounding off with a very low level of understanding. It's hilarious how little you know about most things, but this in particular demonstrates your lack of comphrehension.
I would prescibe invermectin for your tds blindess..
