Well its the last official #CDC report on #COVID we can trust. 2024 have 47k deaths from Covid. 2 years over the last 15 years, the #Flu caused 51k deaths each year. Covid is officially on flu level dangerous and less lethal that the worst strains. #Longcovid causes 14% more damage to hospitalized patients than #longflu , however 50% more people hospitalized die from covid. This means that if we work backwards from death rate, there were 31k hospitalizations. This means that the impacts of long covid matched that of a 35K hospitalization/death rate year.
From this data, we can tell that there will always be 2 spikes, one in the back to school times and one around the holidays. However from spring to early fall, and mid to late fall it should be as safe for nearly all people to go unmasked as they did prior to the pandemic. The lethality keeps dropping, the risks are better understood, however...
We are now losing any data we have on how to know how to protect ourselves, so we are walking into the future as blind as when the Spanish flu hit us, and we all covered it up for war time reasons and only neutral Spain reported it accurately so it got that name.
From this data you have to decide for yourself what is safe and what is not. I've been doing these posts for a while now, But without this data I can no longer say anything about it. Take care of each other, be respiratory disease aware around the vulnerable, and look out for each other, mask up when sick and probably during spike season as well. From here on out we are flying blind. May god have mercy on us if he exists.
