This is expected to be the smallest Omicron wave so far. But eligible older and vulnerable people are still recommended to have a booster.

    I think we can expect people to wear masks and bosses to respect sick leave requests

    Edit: Looks like this is Australia. How has mask wearing and sick leave been on your side of the world?

      Masks are voluntary and rarely seen Down Under, contributing to the ongoing local Aussie Covid death toll, with 'freedom' being paid for via the lives of the vulnerable, who are given little to no consideration by the majority!

          Sorry to hear you have your fair share of MAGA snowflakes to deal with as well, then. It's amazing how these idiots can spend so much time making up wild theories to avoid wearing what amounts to a piece of clothing, and yet they would throw a fit if someone told them they couldn't wear a coat in the Winter.

    Good thing the CDC has stopped tracking numbers in the US since “the pandemic is over.” Great work Joe

    This wave knocked me on my ass and it's been the only wave to have done this despite being 5 times vaxxed including the bivalent for 2 months before getting sick.

    Maybe it's just bad luck but the people around me seem to be getting sicker and sicker from this wave.
