Is Queens as bad as it's portrayed in movies?

The CDC estimates that, since January first, 95 per cent of the infections are traced to the Omicron strain. The CDC release said because some of the Omicron 50 mutations are known to evade antibody protection, because more than 30 of those mutations are to the spike protein used as an immunogen by the existing vaccines, and because there have been mass Omicron outbreaks in heavily vaccinated populations, scientists are highly uncertain the existing vaccines can stop it from spreading, we do not yet know . . . how well available vaccines and medications work against it.Ward has stopped spewing his lies about drugs and is instead changing to WSJ bogus propaganda against vaccinations.It is true that "The CDC estimates that, since January first, 95 per cent of the infections are traced to the Omicron strain." End of debate. Since the vaccinated are getting infected the November mandates are obsolete.The question of their constitutionality can still be debated. But for what?No.Since the vaccinated are getting infected at vastly lower rates and being hospitalized at even lower rates, the mandates still have a huge amount of utility.Had those who were not vaccinated been vaccinated, our hospitals would not be overflowing.You act like the only choices are infected or not and that there is no difference between the two.It is an absurd position for anybody to take.We don't know if there are long term implications from Omicron yet, but we do know that the more folks who get it the greater the chance that it will mutate further.

It is a large diverse place with all sorts of exceptional nooks and crannies. It has also been on the upswing for several decades generally.

Why do you try to reason with this fool?RED would not recognize a fact if it bit him on his ass.
Emphasis added. More reasons why we want more people more protected.Nobody disagreesIt is still personal choiceIs what it isIf Biden wants to work hard at something productive , doing a better job convincing folks to get vaccinated or delegating this to someone real good at it might be advisable. Reason enough to replace Dr Fauci as top talking head outside Rachel. A Republican voice sure makes a ton of sense.

Kid is still waiting for an Arnie Vinnick presidency.

Republicans should step up and do so without being asked. Republicans should tell their constituents to get vaccinated and stop fighting mask mandates... but that would require the GOP to behave like patriots and 1/6/2021 showed them motherfuckers to be anything but.Many are.Need a national platform. But Joe would never appoint or annoint someone from the other party.
