Going into the fifth year of post-COVID Thanksgiving festivities, levels of the virus are low statewide

While the chance of a heated political discussion at your Thanksgiving table might be extra high this year, the chance of getting COVID at your family gathering is lower than it has been in the past several years.

That’s even with millions of Californians expected to travel for the holiday.

“The bottom line is that we’re in a very, very good place at this moment,” said Dr. John Swartzberg, clinical professor emeritus of infectious diseases and vaccinology at UC Berkeley.

Going into the fifth year of post-COVID Thanksgiving festivities, levels of the virus are low statewide, and around most of the country. Santa Clara County’s wastewater testing, which measures levels of the virus in local sewer sheds, shows the virus at low levels across the county.

Data from California’s public health department shows “RSV and influenza activity are low but increasing” and “COVID-19 is currently low in California,” according to data through November 16.

As of this fall, California public health officials publish data on COVID, along with flu and RSV, in weekly respiratory virus updates. The update from the week before Thanksgiving shows the test positivity rates for influenza and RSV have started to rise, while COVID test positivity, hospitalizations and deaths remain low.

“We went through a really late summer wave, and that really got a lot of Americans immunized,” Swartzberg noted,

So infectious bureaucrats have to test sewer water to tell us how low the infection rate is.

I have heard “I had covid and didn’t even know it” more times than I can count.

Zero out of 10 at our house in NevaDUH. But, that’s been the norm since day one. We know folks that never fail to let people know they just got ALL the latest vaxxes at Walgreens. Plus boosters. 🤔

So sad :(

How will you be able to relax and enjoy your $58 thanksgiving feast for 10 and raw sewage beer if you and all your family have not fully boosted up with the big bold beautiful life-saving and completely effective Clot Shots?

Sincerely, pyramid hand sign guy.

Is there something I’m missing about the $58.00 thanksgiving dinner?

My doc said no to shots too. We’re both lucky.
My MD didn’t go to med school in the US where they’re funded by Big Pharma and was having none of the bullschtein. If your MD went to med school here, he/she is exceptionally smart.

Lol look it up. That is supposedly the average cost of a thanksgiving meal for 10 in the US this year.

Oh OK. I have seen that amount in articles. I just didn’t know if there was more to it. I think it’s even around that price at Whole Foods here. I have no idea how much it costs anymore. I got tired of cooking one year and took my son and his wife and my grandson to Flemings and it was so much nicer than cooking all day we do that every year now. It’s a lot more than $58.00 but so worth it.

Word has gotten out that C19 vaxxxes and boosters can harm you. So that even if you have gotten a few injections. Not to push your luck by getting anymore.
