That's what the death rate was in countries where the healthcare systems couldn't handle surges earlier in the pandemic, like Italy's first wave. Since no one has any immunity in North Korea, and their healthcare system is undoubtedly not up to the task at hand there's no reason to think that anything less will occur there.

I bet they do have some immunity. The country is not as closed off as you think.

Today I learned that our Iris Society treasurer who I sat by for 40 minutes on Saturday evening tested positive for Covid the next day.

So counting days from this close contact on Saturday: I am three days out and still OK. We shall see.

Are all these positive tests of new Covid cases done due to mild symptoms? Have they had shots and boosters?

There is still testing of asymptomatic people going on as well. Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent on them. One person benefittng is the governor of Illinois who owns shares in covid testing companies.

But corruption in Illinois? Can't be. Must be a conspiracy theory. Call the Disinformation Bureau. Stop the presses!

The horror. People wanting to not unwittingly transmit a deadly disease to another person!

I’m sure this guy has all the shots and the boosters. I heard that he took the test because he had a slight fever.

It's mutated and is now just the sort of cold, or flu, that has always killed vulnerable people. It is no longer a novel virus. 95% of people have immunity. The danger was in the novelty.

More and more studies seem to indicate COVID can cause lasting damage, including to the brain and gut. I haven't heard of colds and flu doing that.

I’ve also not heard of the flu killing 300-400 Americans/week year in and year out. But sure, the covid deniers must be right. They ‘did the research’. Lol.

My doctor told me that some of her patients have serious long term issues from Covid.
