Just thought you’d like to know that at the 500 bed hospital where I am the director of critical care services, where we have 70 ICU beds, for the first time since March 2020, we have zero COVID19 infections staff or patients at our hospital today.

You will see local and regional flare ups of COVID19 cases here and there, but I’m rather confident that the COVID19 pandemic in the US is likely over.

Will you be taking off your masks? 😉😂😂😂

I would. But they didn’t ask me. Their infection control department run by the infectious disease practice is requiring 80% vaccination of staff before they will remove the mask mandate. But I flaunt the rule as much as I can get away with :)

That’s my form of protest, my way of saying to everybody that the critical care department doesn’t think it’s necessary anymore, LOL

Indian variant?

I'm told it's making its way through Canada.

Again you will see flares and local increases in cases but I don’t think you’ll ever see anything from any version of COVID19 Like what we saw last year. That doesn’t mean they won’t be different strains they give us bad seasons from time to time just like influenza does but she usually don’t see pandemic level numbers unless it’s a brand new virus nobody’s ever seen before, wherever it was created :)

You mean like a wet market where undercooked bats come from?

It's over for me regardless of what the idiot in the Oval Office says.

Good news. Our local hospitals are way down, but not to zero. Only a few deaths in the past few weeks.
what do you think about traveling out of the county? US is in good shape with many immune. Would you be worried traveling to Europe or elsewhere even though you’ve been immunized?
 
The masks finally worked. Who knew that 1 year 4 months was the timeframe for efficacy. Had we known this we could just always wear masks, and we could eradicate viruses for good. I mean, if we care for others we will do this. Hey Doc mcstuffins, can you pass this DOWN to fraudchi?

I would check the local infection numbers before I travel to a country and I would not travel, unless I was vaccinated, outside of this country. That’s just my opinion.

Which country do you recommend we travel to, for our covid vaccines?
