WASHINGTON—As Covid-19 cases climb across the U.S., President Biden and his administration are preparing Americans to accept the virus as a part of daily life, in a break from a year ago when he took office with a pledge to rein in the pandemic and months later said the nation was “closer than ever to declaring our independence from a deadly virus.”

The recalibration of Mr. Biden’s message comes as the country braces for another round of disruptions wrought by the pandemic. A growing number of schools temporarily have returned to virtual instruction and many businesses are strained by staffing shortages, in both cases due to infections triggered by the highly transmissible Omicron variant. Thursday marked the 12th straight day of more than 1,000 flight cancellations, and many states warned that ongoing testing shortages will make it harder to return people to work and school.

Omicron is going to give us that independence. With all the vaccines, all the precautions, the numbers still go up and down like a yo-yo. What we do know...absolutely...is that Omicron spreads like wildfire...latching on to anyone...vaccinated or not.

AND...survival is no longer 99.85%...but 99.99%

This article claims (the senile and stupid) Biden is ignoring the advice of 6 former health advisors in a stubborn unrealistic insistence to “defeat the virus”
