Dear Diary, today Socks was a nigger.

Multiple lines of evidence from various parts of the world suggest that the Omicron variant causes a less severe form of COVID-19. In South Africa, where Omicron was first detected in November 2021, a private health insurance administrator reported in mid-December that adults with Omicron were 29 percent less likely to be hospitalized, compared with adults infected several months earlier. In the U.K., the rate of hospital admission among people who went to the emergency room with Omicron was a third of what it was for Delta, according to a summary of research from the U.K. Health Security Agency released on December 31, 2021.

Each new strain has been less deadly than the one before it.

This is unrelated to my comments. Regardless of the COVID strain or variant (there are many strains and a few variants), the way one develops antibodies with the help vaccines reduced the severity of the symptoms when you get the virus. It's REALLY simple to understand and almost everyone who has read about COVID will know this. Also, read this.

Based on public data provided by the CDC,19 we estimate that in the fall of 2022 at least 31 207–42 836 young adults aged 18–29 years must be boosted with an mRNA vaccine to prevent one Omicron-related COVID-19 hospitalisation over 6 months. Given the fact that this estimate does not take into account the protection conferred by prior infection or a risk adjustment for comorbidity status, this should be considered a conservative and optimistic assessment of benefit. Our estimate shows that university COVID-19 vaccine mandates are likely to cause net expected harms to young healthy adults—for each hospitalisation averted we estimate approximately 18.5 SAEs and 1430–4626 disruptions of daily activities—that is not outweighed by a proportionate public health benefit. Serious COVID-19 vaccine-associated harms are not adequately compensated for by current US vaccine injury systems. As such, these severe infringements of individual liberty and human rights are ethically unjustifiable.

Mandates are also associated with wider social harms. The fact that such policies were implemented despite controversy among experts and without updating the sole publicly available risk-benefit analysis19 to the current Omicron variants nor submitting the methods to public scrutiny suggests a profound lack of transparency in scientific and regulatory policy making. These findings have implications for mandates in other settings such as schools, corporations, healthcare systems and the military. Policymakers should repeal COVID-19 vaccine mandates for young adults immediately and ensure pathways to compensation to those who have suffered negative consequences from these policies. Regulatory agencies should facilitate independent scientific analysis through open access to participant-level clinical trial data to allow risk-stratified and age-stratified risk-benefit analyses of any new vaccines prior to issuing recommendations.125 This is needed to begin what will be a long process of rebuilding trust in public health.

A slave will not be instructed by words alone; For though he understands, there will be no response. (Proverbs 29:19)

Now you're almost trolling. This doesn't in any way challenge any of the points I've made. And Proverbs? You know that's an argument about faith, right, about the stubborn slave who resists or disobays God? Careful, or God will send you and other GOP/Authoritarian slaves to Hell for spreading antivax lies.

It's about beating disobedient slaves.

Indeed, disobedient slaves spread antivax disinfo, and must instead be willing to be enlightened by God and learn the truth, facts, & scientific evidence. "The righteous detest the dishonest; the wicked detest the upright." (Prov. 29:27)
