Any resources on how long the contagious period is for people with Omicron?
Haven't seen data about it but anecdotally seems to be a couple days max.

I wonder why this the case. It certainly was (relatively) mild when it hit Lakewood/Brooklyn.

New cases vs reinfections?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

That, the fact that earlier waves may have hit more vulnerable people in our community than others, better healthcare and awareness/availability of treatments (thanks to Hatzalah and other communal stuff) etc.

Most of the deaths are coming from unvaccinated older people, we probably don't really have all that many of those.

HK cases increased 5x in the past 14 days, so it will likely hit 70+/1m every day. One of the highest rates in the world (HK is one of the densest places)

So is New Zealand turning into a case study of how effective the vaccines are in communities with no real covid exposure prior to Omicron?

So far no spike in serious cases; similar to what happened in previously highly infected communities.

The quote at the end “the peak of the global pandemic” shows how out of touch they are.

Fighting Omicron is a war you lose before the fighting even starts. COVID-zero isn’t realistic anymore even with draconian Chinese containment measures.
