We'll probably make it when enough infected people live after being infected.

The current numbers remain above 1200 deaths per day:
I found this article from this morning interesting. I believe that is an open link.

Seems Hong Kong is now in the thick of the Covid.

Good news and not so good news, first deaths have fallen below 1000/day
The not so good news:
Several states in the Northeast and the South have seen cases increase over the past two weeks as the BA.2 subvariant has emerged. In New York, Connecticut and Arkansas, cases are up by more than 20 percent.

Some hope:
The percentage increase, at least in the Northeast, is coming from a small number, so absolute numbers of cases are still on the low side.
The BA.2 seems to be less of an issue that even Omicron. Most cases are not showing the virulence of previous variants.
So this gives me hope.
Yes, we are starting to see healthier stats coming out. God willing, new variants will not arise.
