Addressing New Waves



Most people with Omicron didn't even realise they had COVID-19, study finds

This "low level of infection awareness has likely contributed to the fast spread of Omicron," said Dr Susan Cheng.

The lack of public awareness about being infected means that people can't take steps to prevent themselves transmitting the virus further, which is a major stumbling block for addressing new waves of the pandemic.


Sounds much the same as stupidity. Those infected with it seem to be unaware that they have it and may even pass it on to other susceptible people including children and the BBC. 

Even worse, a cascade of horrors we aren't aware of may be lurking just over the horizon, waiting to pounce at even the faintest indication that normal life may finally rise from the ashes.

Covid has become like a serious delusional mental illness like schizophrenia. You can protest that you are perfectly well, but you are just saying that because you are delusional. Doctor knows best.

Sam - which opens the door to a number of other treatable conditions we don't yet know we have.
