But people aren't dying at the same rates nor are they hitting ICU or ventilators at the same rates.. That was the original goal. Keep deaths and sick from over running hospitals.
Just like in europe it seems to be losing its intensity. For what ever reason.
Regardless, we have to build the type of immunity that kills this sort of thing. Thru vaccine or transmission it doesn't matter. If this is petering out without killing at the same rate then stop pussyfooting around. PROTECT the vulnerable and unlease the rest of the population.
The more healthy young people pass this A symptomatic strain around the bigger fire break and it will collapse.
The antibody testing is showing 10 times the infection rate of positive tests. That means 90 percent of the people didnt even know they were sick.
If I had to guess I would say that's why its losing its steam severity wise.
We have gone from having one or two positives day to a dozens in a couple weeks. I suspect the death rate is lagging, not fizzling out. We will see. But this disease isn’t some illusion to extort Americans of their freedom.
Frankly, the antibody test are the least specific of all our testing, and I am not sure if I believe any of these “studies” that suggest that COVID was here before.
