Ok - I have to point out about hospitalization rates - we can't depend on them to determine off-ramps. Because normally what authorities do is take a look at those - and then compare to ICU capacity. But ICU capacity is actually unknown now, due to staffing issues. So, in /1

MG: (paraphrasing) I wasn’t wrong because the region I live in did fine. Were her predictions clearly specific to the region she lives in? Any SF HCWs want to weigh in on how Delta and Omicron have been fir you?

And yet, by focusing on Covid Death, @MonicaGandhi9 is still reassuring people the emergency is over. With the risk of Long Covid, we should be looking at new cases, not deaths, and new Covid cases are still higher than in 2020.
TOOLS TO KEEP COVID ENDEMIC NOW HERE: Long thread to explain that we now have all the tools necessary in the US to keep COVID in the endemic & out of the emergency phase. At this point in the pandemic (May '22), world & US seeing its lowest number of COVID deaths since March 2020

Great interview. Thank you.
Good job challenging one of the many “prematurely minimizers” drs. They have been prematurely arguing against mitigations continuing before every single variant wave and used by the right wing COVIDidiots. Now please invite @VPrasadMDMPH and ask some of the same questions too.

Ooooof. The CRINGE. She & ZDogg just laugh and laugh & compliment each other nauseatingly every time. Doesn't matter how many millions have died worldwide. COVID is hysterical to them. She even backtracked "I won't" to "I'll try...". So insincere.

Thanks for the YouTube link bc Twitter doesn't fucking work anymore.
Horribly disrespectful interview. Why would any expert who is not a COVID maximizer go on your program? Listen to the context of her talks. She defends vaccines & explains why no variant is likely to escape for severe outcomes. Politicians & MSM are scaring the wrong people.
