Nothing about testing for Covid before visiting older relatives or, if you are older, asking your family and friends to test. Nothing about ventilation to protect vulnerable people. Nothing about the fact that a Covid infection is often asymptomatic, so "stay home if you're unwell" is laughable advice.
As reported two days ago in the New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/21/science/covid-omicron-variant.html), "The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that between October 2022 and September 2023, more than 80,000 people died of Covid, more than eight times as many as those who died of influenza." Eight times! Eighty thousand people!
We might like to wish it away but it hasn't done so yet. Your moral and professional failure to note the outsize lethality of the ever-mutating Covid 19 virus and to caution readers before large family gatherings is irresponsible. I will be unsubscribing.
I agree Joyce. Becky dawson is a disgrace with her anti science rhetoric.
