I'd guess 40 to 60. From my own personal experience, I am a confirmed case. I have at least 6 other friends/family that had it but never took the test.

Agree. Almost 10% of the population in our state has tested positive. Throw in the asymptomatic and those who didn't want to or who were unable to test, I'd be very surprised if we weren't over 50%.

Definitely possible, and hope your right.

Also have to factor in the people who have been/will be getting vaccinated and whether or not they’re included in the population that had the virus.

I’m thinking by June we’ll be more or less back to normal.

In my daughters case she started out this fall semester thinking she was going to teach 2nd grade virtually, got all set up for that. Then a couple days before school started she got 3rd-5th all together. That lasted a couple weeks then it was just 3rd then a few weeks latter it was 1st-3rd. All the while the evaluation criteria for her performance never changed from what it would have been had she been in the classroom teaching 1 grade. That's why she quit after the 1st semester.

With all that going on I don't blame her. Is she planning on teaching again when school resumes in person?

I have friends with it that are both high risk. Their doc was very aggressive in therapeutics and even got both of them the plasma in quick order. Basically fatigue now.

I’m telling you, therapeutics are the key. Several things that work.

Yep, my sisters MIL was in the hospital a few weeks ago with COVID. She is very high risk due to a lot of factors. We all honestly wondered if she would make it, but after 4 days of aggressive treatment she was sent home, and so far so good.

UK Police Chief: ‘Now Is Really Not the Time’ for Freedom of Speech, Right to Assembly

The chief constable of Dorset Police has urged lockdown protesters to accept that “now is really not the time” for freedom of speech and the right to assembly.

Chief Constable James Vaughan was speaking after the controversial arrest of two women for, seemingly, being recorded leaving home more than once and “sitting on a bench”, in an incident the police now allege was “stage-managed” by lockdown protesters, as one of the women is a Covid sceptic — although she denies any pre-planning.

“We appealed to them [the protesters] last weekend to say: ‘Look guys, we respect your right to freedom of speech and right to assembly but now is really not the time, it is too dangerous. Please don’t come, we have got other things we need to do,'” said the chief constable in comments to The Telegraph.

Incredibly, Chief Constable Vaughan seemed to admit the apparent double standard was an issue, and that the perhaps over-zealous enforcement of lockdown regulations against easier targets might be an issue — one causing damage to the public’s relationship with the police.

“I think we have taken some shrapnel to be fair. When you look at drones in the Peak District, 90-year-olds being arrested, women walking their dogs getting fined… you have those who say: ‘Nobody seemed to be bothered about Black Lives Matter or Extinction Rebellion protests or statues being thrown in the river,'” he confessed.

Did they get plasma or monoclonal antibody?

If anyone was ever under the impression the COVID policies were not mostly politics, it should be clear now.

Just 4 of many examples:

1 - Some rallies / protests / riots were not problematic; others were / are

2 - Fauci’s constant moving goalposts - like his herd immunity vaccination estimates

3 - NYC and Chicago now most reopen - businesses are suffering! Just in time for Jan 20.

4 - Many politicians who pushed for heavy restrictions for safety weren’t worried enough to follow them themselves

But the science!!
