Thai authorities took a chance and let things semi open over the holidays. Now we're paying the price. As expected covid has gotten much worse.

Not exactly.  REPORTED infections have increased as expected.  If Omicron, then it may be no worse than the flu.  Wait and see huh?

Omicron symptoms even resemble more the common cold.

Yes for most who are vaccinated it is.

For the unvaxxinated. Not so much.

Doctors are prescribing Zube Lozenges as they fear that Night Nurse may be too strong a fix.

Why dont you do a search on your Quackquackzoom and get the answers for yourself because no matter what evidence I post you will simply dismiss it because of some conspiracy theory?

The only “substantiated “Covid stats I care about are (a) 97% Dead / ICU Covid Cases in UK / USA are Unvaxxed and (b) Near ZERO Deaths in triple western vaxxed. Winter Flu goes unreported & WAY more Lethal, along with unaddressed Road Deaths.

STOP Reporting Infections. Stop Testing. Assume Everyone is Positive & Let Vax Work to achieve Herd Immunity.STOP All Restrictions. STOP pretense of  “protecting” Unvaxxed. Omicron Wave already Collapsing as Very Mild.

Once again.. right on target with your statement..

Guessing your thread is still locked Blue, you chancing your arm and trying this thread to post your Anti Vax theories.

A shame, actually. 

Perhaps, reasonable heads will prevail.

Like the weather, human viruses migrate with humans. 

For perhaps long as humanity has existed it's been this way. 

How can viral migration be stopped? It's akin to complaining about the wind. 

These lockdowns weren't to stop the unstoppable migration of viruses.

They were solely to "flatten the curve" to keep the medical system from collapse. 

That's it as far I know. Am I wrong?

Just let it run it's course. 

We might be surprised as to what such a result would be.

The Swedes attempts to protect the weakest and allow the strongest to get infected and build herd immunity makes the most sense to me.

Letting the old and weak suffer, if trying to help them is possible, seems less than ideal.
