    Hong Kong bet on zero-Covid. Now it's facing a 'preventable disaster'

    Morgues are nearly at capacity, hospitals overwhelmed and, as fears grow of a citywide lockdown, panicked shoppers have stripped supermarket shelves bare.

    Hong Kong -- once lauded as a zero-Covid success story -- is now battling a deadly outbreak reminiscent of the early days of the pandemic, despite having had more than two years to prepare.

    With locally transmitted cases surging past 312,000 in the city of 7.4 million in just the last two weeks, hospitals and embattled health workers have been stretched to breaking point. The numbers are likely to be far higher due to suspicions people are not reporting their positive test results for fear of being separated from families and put into government isolation facilities.

    Although the rampant surge has been driven by the less deadly Omicron variant, Hong Kong's deaths are also rising -- particularly among the city's unvaccinated elderly. According to Our World in Data, which uses data from Johns Hopkins University, Hong Kong reported more deaths per million people in the week to March 3 than any country or territory.

    Covid May Cause Changes in the Brain, New Study Finds

    https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/…

    The study, involving people aged 51 to 81, found shrinkage and tissue damage primarily in brain areas related to sense of smell; some of those areas are also involved in other brain functions, the researchers said.

    “To me, this is pretty convincing evidence that something changes in brains of this overall group of people with Covid,” said Dr. Serena Spudich, chief of neurological infections and global neurology at the Yale School of Medicine...

    "There is strong evidence for brain-related abnormalities in COVID-19...the infected participants also showed on average larger cognitive decline between the two timepoints. These mainly limbic brain imaging results may be the in vivo hallmarks of a degenerative spread of the disease via olfactory pathways, of neuroinflammatory events, or of the loss of sensory input due to anosmia. Whether this deleterious impact can be partially reversed, or whether these effects will persist in the long term, remains to be investigated with additional follow up."

    Omicron BA.2 sub-variant spreading in New York City

    According to New York State health department data, BA.2 is doubling in proportion statewide every two weeks and represents about one in 10 sequenced cases.

    "Between February 27 and March 5, 2022 CDC’s program for HHS Region 2 (New York, New Jersey, Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico) estimated 100% of samples were the omicron variant, compared to 100% in the previous one-week period. During this time period, 82.7% of omicron sequences were lineage BA.1.1.529, and 17.3% were BA.2," the state reported.

    • So the masks weren’t effective but they did harm an entire generation’s mental health. More people died of suicide than Covid in Spain.Chimp

    • You can't deny that masks have played a massive part in the unnecessary fear and thus have played a part in the suicide increase.Chimp

    • ..and families die and then having a severe 5 week lockdown with 1 hour outdoor time. Why? Because they didn't start masking and SD immediately.garbage
    • And you have anecdotal evidence of claims that kids killed themselves because they had to wear masks. It's not the masks, it the unending pandemic.garbage

    • Children were not harmed by wearing masks. I have three of them and they're all totally fine. My son even wore one at his sisters bday party this weekend.mathinc
    • I asked him why he did that, and he replied that he wore his mask because he still had a cold and didn't want to get anyone sick.mathinc
    • So anecdotally (not unlike your biased studies), mask use in children helps them empathetically think of others wellbeing.mathinc
    • ..Just to be clear, you're responding to chimp, right? Only asking because per usual, he never provides sources or data.garbage
    • And that's because there's no data that concludes with "MaSkS mAkE KiDs KiLL tHemseLvEs".garbage
