R Moshe Scheinerman is in the hospital on oxygen with a new case. Another fellow I know from afar Rockaway is in the hospital as well.

There is ZERO evidence or reason to suspect there is a milder strain going around. ZERO.

COVID is covid is covid.

Only difference is that in March, hospitals actually killed people outright.

Wow, as in the Rav of the shul in Flatbush at 24th and P? Do you know his full name for Tehillim? When did this happen, and how serious is the situation?

Yes the Rav. I wasn’t able to get the tehillim name, will try to find out, but they asked for tefillos.

People: “But there haven’t been any hospitalizations! Nobody is getting really sick! The strain is lighter!”

But during the past two weeks, Orthodox communities in New York once again started seeing a spike in cases. During that period, according to a medical source in the community who spoke to Hamodia on Sunday, there have been approximately 10 COVID hospitalizations in the community, including serious cases and intubations.

So really nobody learns from round one nobody learned that the disease can go around very quietly and stealth like.

That by the way it works, If you know of 10 people that have it, 1000 have it.

Asisa has been averaging around 5 cases a day.

By the way, with all the new infections, they're a lot more confident about reinfection. All infections are first time.

Yup. But still pretty interesting how many people didn't get it the first time around.

[shaulyaakov]

Source?

First time people who never tested positive for virus, or only people not known to have antibodies?

Everyone was under the impression 90% had it. Fast forward 6 months and the % is growing smaller and smaller lol.

When people make assumption not based on fact it is not a tremendous surprise that the assumptions proved to be wrong.
