    What they should have done by now is expand hospital capacity and staff.
    In the UK, they have massively ramped up hospital capacity. Expanding staffing is a slow process if you are talking about trained doctors and nurses though. Regardless, it would seem ill-advised to have infected staff tending to patients in hospitals, so if the omicron variant is tearing through the population at a rate of 1m+ per week -- regardless of the severity of symptoms -- it has the potential to mess up whether hospitals can run properly or not. This then has a knock-on for healthcare of every variety.

    It may well be that this all comes to a head very quickly and passes, but simply ignoring it and hoping the health system copes seems more than a little reckless. Any government not making plans to protect the effectiveness of the healthcare system is likely to be judged negligent in the future by arbiters of such things (the media, voters, the judiciary, historians, etc).

      Good post. It seems people refuse to see the obvious. It's always been about maintaining a functioning health care system.

        If you believe that sheep I’ve got some nice beachfront property for sale in the swamps of Louisiana. Here ya go since you like to point out facts for everyone. How many times has Covid “vaccination” prevented Covid? Have there been any deaths from Covid after the “vaccine?” Have there been any deaths from getting the “vaccine?” How many deaths in the US have occurred due to Omicron?

        Now to your #’s. Since you seem to think you’re all knowing of this virus. Have you read the guidelines on what is considered a “Covid death?” How many of your 815,000 were directly related and only related to the virus? Did you know that someone who died in a car accident or any other related death if they were Covid positive that too was considered a Covid death? Don’t believe me? I’ll shoot you the press conference from the Michigan head of health stating this very thing.

        Get educated, think for yourself instead of being an ignorant sheep. I bet you couldn’t answer any of my above questions as a yes or with information.

        So spare me “conspiracy.” Prove my FACTS wrong or run along you mental midget.

            People! Please don't be inconsiderate. Most of us have immune systems that are capable of dealing with corona virus 19 but there are a few people that aren't so fortunate.

            Strength comes with responsibility. We must do everything in our power to protect the weak and to do that we must all get vaccinated so that the virus doesn't keep mutating. The more we delay the more it has time to mutate.

            Let's knockout this virus out, it's been too long already.

              You've listed basic questions that mainstream media, globally, are apparently failing/avoiding to ask.I can't know for certain, but the diagnostic guidelines for COVID morbitity is probably fluid, and what was quite restrictive, may now encompass a broader set of symptoms. These allow positive case numbers and death counts to be manipulated to whatever narrative desired by governments and big pharma. This is no conspiracy. It's overt stuff for any aware person.

                Never would’ve guessed you’re from Louisiana. What a surprise. As Mark Twain said, no amount of reason will ever persuade an idiot. You are the sheep and you don’t even realise it being duped with misinformation by people with their own agenda. The entire medical and scientific community worldwide disagree with your perspective yet I’m apparently the one in the wrong. Yeah right. Well done genius.

                  This all should have stopped at 2 weeks to flatten the curve. Once people let it get past that you all gave the government a free pass to do anything they wanted. How is it that vaccines and masks still did nothing to stop it? It is quite obvious none of this works. Should have just let natural immunity take its course and we would all be done with this hoax.

                    LOL Duuuude chill and have a pint! Stop watching the news, it's killing your mojo and your spirit. If you feel vulnerable, protect yourself, get vaccinated and keep your distances. But for the love of god, children and healthy people, let the rest of us live.
