Summary
Covid cases are surging across the U.S. post-holidays, with rising test positivity, hospitalizations, and deaths, while booster uptake remains low.
Only 21.4% of adults and 10.3% of children have received the latest booster, leaving vulnerable groups, including the elderly, at higher risk.
Experts warn of continued dangers from Covid, including long Covid and economic impacts, as the virus has not yet reached an endemic state.
With uncertain federal priorities, researchers stress the importance of monitoring infections, updating vaccines, and using preventive measures to mitigate future waves.
How is it not endemic yet? Oh wait the pharma companies aren’t done making money off it yet.
Flu is endemic yet millions get a flu shot every year. I’d rather the booster than the brain fog++, thanks.
I’ve never had a flu shot,
Good for you?
can’t imagine ever needing one,
Sounds like you don’t understand what they are or how they work
the effectiveness is super low too.
That’s wrong.
