Just when you thought the pandemic could hold no more surprises, the Omicron grinch has brought America something new for the holidays: the festive panic.

In New York City especially, the number of people, and energy level, in stores and restaurants and on the streets is remarkable given our supposed death rattle. It isn’t that people aren’t afraid. Of course they are. But they’re not as afraid as they were a year ago.

Count me, triple-vaccinated, among the brave: I’ve been out and around town, repeatedly testing negative — but tested again as I write this after learning a relative at a Christmas gathering had tested positive.But Apple’s reversal is a better barometer of the mood on the street. After announcing the total closure of all its city stores earlier this week, the company partly backtracked Tuesday and said it was reopening them to a reduced number of customers.

Count me, triple-vaccinated, among the brave:

Triple vaxxed = among the brave???????

No. You’re a stinking coward.

I’ve been out and around town, repeatedly testing negative

I have too, and unvaxxed and unmasked, at that.

— but tested again as I write this after learning a relative at a Christmas gathering had tested positive

Coward again.

Steve Cuozzo is the coward that wrote the article. Hope he breaks his arm while patting himself on the back.

Fear Porn works. Still .2% mortality rate and falling fast. Notice they no longer talk about hospitalizations and deaths. Just Covid cases. Is it a cold, the flu or Covid?

“repeatedly testing”

Does anyone know if that can result at some point in a chronic nosebleed problem? Will never forget Hannity’s offered military mandate compromise of “daily” testing.

Read this whole op-ed. Even in NYC the sheeple are snapping out of the Fauci/Biden/Bill Gates/Globalist authored Covidxyz Panic.

As always take D3 and see. 10000 units daily with K2

He is triple vaxxed but is seeing the light. I liked what he had to say. As long as the vaxxxed leave the non-vaxxed alone, they are OK with me.

Problem for NY, CA, MA and other Failed American States is that the reality of the post-Covid world is going to be impossible to overcome especially without Shoeless Joe Manchin sending them more blank FedGuv checks. They will keep try to stay in the Covid MetaVerse where “we are all in this together, Comrades” for a wee bit longer.

Is it related to a Beckite?

I saw Shoeless Joe Jackson’s memorial in Greenville, South Carolina. This was a while back. Now it seems they have a baseball library and museum for Joe. Righteous!

Agreed. It would be a much better world if people stuck to minding their own business.

Meanwhile, get a load of this from Upstate...

Seneca County handing out thousands of KN95 masks starting Wednesday

Still peddling muzzles, but KN95s?!

KN95 is the Chinese standard.

New Yorkers who refer to themselves as Gothamites wear Batman pajamas and put sauerkraut on hotdogs. They also admire people who can walk down a street eating a pizza slice folded in half while carrying a can of paint.

NYC is on a different planet from where I live.

We don’t talk anymore about COVID, nobody asks you about your vaccine status, & only obvious fools (not to include healthcare workers) still wear masks.

While this might be a sign of good things to come, I am still amazed by the number of people who are still hiding behind their masks, and full of fear. For some, it appears to be so deeply ingrained that they might never feel safe again.

It's truly bizarre.

COVID didn't make them that way - like many liberals they grew up terrified of the world around them. The masks just created safe spaces for them to hide, and they will hang on to those security blankets for a long time yet.
