The United States is continuing to see a spike in COVID-19 cases and things don't seem to be slowing down any time soon.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released new estimates on coronavirus cases Wednesday (December 29), which predict more than 44,000 Americans could die from the virus during the next month.
The CDC reports the death toll in relation to the virus has already increased by about 18%, with an average of 1,546 deaths per day, according to the data released by the agency.
The data also showed the U.S. hit a new seven-day average record of 277,000 new cases per day, which surpassed a previous record of 250,000 cases per day set in January.
Meanwhile, the CDC recently changed its guidance to shorten isolation for asymptomatic cases from 10 to five days this week.
"We know that the most amount of transmission occurs in those one to two days before you develop symptoms (to) those two to three days after you develop symptoms," CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky told CNN. "And if you map that out, those five days account for somewhere between 85% to 90% of all transmission that occurs."
The CDC is urging Americans to take caution during New Year's celebrations amid the continued rapid spread of COVID-19 cases, specifically the extremely contagious Omicron variant.
The agency suggests a small celebration at a friend's house in which all guests are vaccinated, boosted and have tested negative before attending the party, rather than a large indoor event.
Outdoor parties are viewed as being less risky, unless they include a large crowd of attendees.
Sorry, Fauxi, we aren’t complying with your doggone death wish.
Photo of Obama’s closest personal friends at virus superspreader fun fest....Ten seconds after photo....
Obama: Okay, everybody. Here’s my signal: Toga! Toga! Toga! Toga!
This has wrapped up in South Africa with only 4 people dying that had covid.
This fear porn is insane.
I know it is a sick picture. For all of the people replying that the military rules are law and must be followed, please note: This photo also shows the laws being followed.
Yep. Tell me another one CDC…
Meanwhile South Africa is saying its omicron wave is ending and didn’t and saw no spike in deaths

Oh, they can predict this. From June...

“The new policy provides applicants, as well as medical authorities, coroners and jurisdictions, flexibility to attribute a death to COVID-19 without amending the death certificate.”
At the current daily infection rate, there will be EIGHTEEN MILLION new infections. 44,000 is only 0.25% of eighteen million.
I don’t have issue with you posting it. We need to constantly be reminded of the evil of men, especially in these times.
In the next month, whether they actually died from the kung-flu will be another topic.
I should have added, those citing laws and orders, note that this is already called the Nuremberg defense and it did not work. SORRY! Please submit neck size.
I am still waiting for Biden to unveil his great Covid plan!
That will solve everything!
I know many here will need to sit after reading this from me, but this is complete and utter idiocy.
Pictures....
So sick.
That nice little boy may look innocent but could be guilty.
Better check his booster shot records at the principal’s office. He may get yelled at shortly. Or expelled.
Right? I am amazed that South Africa did well with it but when it lands in the US, it becomes the evil variant of all
Time.
I DON’T WANT TO DDDDDDIIIIIIEEEE!!!!! Well, that’s not the worst of outcomes. Whatever.
Yawn....they have NO CREDIBILITY.....NONE!!
They’re just another bunch of bureaucratic morons lining their pockets with taxpayer monies.
44K in a month is not so staggering, when you compare it to the 37K monthly average since the pandemic began.
“CDC has been unable to predict anything”
And their test development has been a total disaster.
Defund them NOW!
