Yes, that’s what it means for the virus to become endemic. Exposures and infections are boosters to the immune. Sometimes you will get sick. As with other colds, the immunocompromised are more likely to have a severe outcome.

We will all get infected. Delta is said to be nearly as infectious as the chicken pox. One teacher in Marin county infected 12 masked students in class with the windows open. Many students infected their vaccinated parents.

Look at Oregon. Covid continues to surge and the mask mandates are not slowing the spread. Everyone will eventually become infected.

This isn't a cold and it will take all of us to stop the spread, which will never happen. E

Um, look at Australia? An island can’t control the spread indefinitely. They are using extreme measures like quarantine camps and jail.

Covid will become a cold. The debate is to whether we can slow the spread with mitigations. Not clear we can. The spread cannot be stopped. It will become endemic.

Everyone I know is traveling.

We just back from a fun trip to Cedar Point.

We are vaccinated and living our lives.

Yes, which was PP’s point. And if you’re vaccinated, it IS more like a cold.

Because it makes life enjoyable and we aren’t miserable hags who have spent the last 18 months locked up mad that other people aren’t as scared as them?

We are vaccinated except 1 kid and she got covid and it was seriously more mild than most colds. Ooh scary. Luckily my kids aren’t morbidly obese….

Enjoy getting COVID right before school, and spreading it to others. You freaking morons.

Why? Because they are selfish, selfish, selfish.

Going to local beaches is one thing, flying to Orlando and going to Disney world is completely different and so much riskier!

Also, I'm assuming people planned these trips back when things seemed safer. I would probably cancel a Disney trip, but not a driving beach trip.

OP here. I do agree with there being varying degrees of risk. I just can’t believe how much Disney/flying I’m seeing right now.

It was prebooked. I’m not sure why you are confused by this.

You know no on comes to your house and holds a gun to your head to force you to the airport to go on your "prebooked" vacation while cases are rising of a highly contagious variant, right? You know anyone who bought nonrefundable or non-transferable tickets while the pandemic was still going on is an idiot, right?

I'm not sure why you are confused by this.

We're not "being told that" at all.

COVID is not endemic. Not even close. And the nation's leading experts will decide when that happens, not you.

Scott Gottlieb says it will be endemic after delta surge. Our turn is coming.

Of course, I am vaccinated. Moderna. U.S Open requires only vaccinated enter main courts. Asking for proof too.

This is new - which is why I checked. They just changed their policy yesterday.

Yes. Got the e-mail yesterday. The GOAT is trying to get the 21 Grandslams and a calendar hear slams. Just in case, we got the tickets. Too bad Fed and Nadal are not competing and trying to do the same. That would make it the most epic tennis tournament ever.
