'CONCLUSION: Early analyses suggest a reduced risk of hospitalisation among SGTF-infected individuals when compared to non-SGTF infected individuals in the same time period.'
medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
'Once hospitalised, risk of severe disease was similar for SGTF- and non-SGTF infected individuals, while SGTF-infected individuals had a reduced risk of severe disease when compared to earlier Delta-infected individuals.'
'Some of this reduction is likely a result of high population immunity.'

Here would be promising direction for future study. Immunity could be innate (young population) and / or acquired (C19 recovered).
Data still preliminary but this could be the opportunity to pause vaxx for consenting low risk individuals, those w/ high innate immunity (young), C19 recovered, while amping up prophylaxis--Vit. D., etc--and build population immunity to whole virus (not just spike).

Imminent risk of war, & NATO defeat, against Russia...

commentary on their paper:
US Navy Acknowledges Russian Weapon Superiority

'a vessel equipped w/ 12 hypersonic missiles can attack as many actively defended targets as two Arleigh Burke-class destroyers firing 16-missile salvos...the offensive equivalent of two entire vessels in the scenario where an actively defended target is being attacked.'
In more concrete terms:
'One Russian Admiral Gorshov class corvette of some 5,000 tons w/ 16 hypersonic missiles & costing some $500 million has MORE firepower than two U.S. Arleigh Burke class destroyers w/ 9,000 tons each, 192 missiles & costing a total of some $3.2 billions.'

'family never anticipated the worldwide headlines that would ensue. In a ballyhooed press conference, New Mexico Human Services Secretary Dr. David Scrase...announced New Mexico’s first ivermectin “overdose,” soon adding a second fatality allegedly from “ivermectin toxicity.”'
'Now, Scrase has acknowledged that his repeated, what he called “offhand,” assertions were groundless. 2 deaths were not caused by ivermectin, a long-used generic drug that was emerging as a...treatment....the pair died because they “actually just delayed their care with covid.”'
'we pressed his agency to provide evidence for its claims of so-called “ivermectin deaths.” Officials had repeatedly said they were awaiting a toxicology report on the cattleman’s death. Yet we learned that the report was never even ordered or done'

'If Omicron continues to spread preferentially in the vaxxed....[&] does prove to be primarily a “reinfection variant,” that may make these countries outliers...not because they are unusually protected, but b/c they are the natural sites of breakthrough'
nymag.com/intelligencer/…
Solid article:
'could imply a meaningful difference in susceptibility to infection between the vaccinated and the previously sick, since most of South Africa’s “immune wall” was built in previous waves, whereas most of Europe’s was built through vaccination'
'And while we should all be rooting for a fast crest and decline, there is also the possibility that Omicron is not overwhelming the global pandemic so much as unfolding beside it in parallel—'

And this is entirely fine--our conversation has largely sidestepped the ideological, or any need to join an information warfare campaign against vaxx hesitancy, or the WEF, etc.
We've seen potential harms & benefits for 2 options--without other nuances such as limited use of vaxx for high C19 risk & no jabs for high vaxx risk while pursuing
#ZeroCovid & / or
herd immunity thru Omicron &/or
a better vaxx selection & / or
prophylaxis & early treatment
We've recognized how isolated, healthy individuals (low risk to catch C19; moderate risk of severe illness) might opt out of (low) vaxx risk, or high-vaxx-risk (teen males) might still opt out of vaxx w/ high odds to get Omicron, but low expected C19 impacts.

This is an important point. You'll appreciate that if we rest at 'see no way these can be unequivocally connected' then this would be a comment on the quality & trustworthiness of our pharmacovigilance system.
That is, if this mental shrug *were* reflective of the state of our system, there would not really be any basis for making claims about safety that we should heed.
That said, there are systems for investigating causality, & the one Health Canada used for deaths appears to be this one: the WHO-UMC causality assessment categories.

'the unshakable confidence that Vladimir Putin & his colleagues have in their present tactical advantage over the United States in the European theater of operations & strategic advantage over the United States on American home territory if push comes to shove.'
