> The new variant is basically a bad cold. Why do we still have these silly mandates?? Bold statement. We don’t have enough data for that. All the data is based on situation when mandates are applied. Nobody knows what happens without mandates. Young people in Africa has still died for this, so it is still quite serious. To add, it is easy to see biased point of view. In the modern countries there are ICUs which are getting filled already. Once they are full, everyone who is not getting there when needed, will die. If we count every person who went to ICU as dead, how this would change seriousness of Covid?
