about half way down and then it plateaus for periods of weeks or sometime sometimes months. and so we have to be calculating about that downward slope in africa. and the other piece i m looking at, if you notice both in south africa and the u.k., that omicron peak dove tailed right on the delta peak an there is some thought that possibly the reason it appears that omicron is milder is because you re getting a lot of reinfections and so that previous infection is not getting people as sick and requiring hospitalization. but as paul pointed out, if you re unvaccinated and no previous infection, you may still be very, as susceptible to illness and hospitalization and death to omicron as any of the other variants. you have to be krafl. they are considering shortening the quarentine people who get people down from ten days, move that they just made in the u.k. that is now seven days.
higher than the statewide average in ohio n. michigan, the vast majority of hospitalized patients in ohio are unvaccinated. here s where we are dr. redlener, this summer s delta peak we had 102,000 case as day. last winter s winter peak, before problem took office, was 137,000 cases a week. we are right in between those two numbers, those two peaks at 119,000 case as day. where are we heading? well, nowhere good, nicolle. and the interesting thing is, i think we are all saying the same thing, is that when you look at those numbers, who are these people? these people are those who are so taken in by a political ideology, they will make decisions that are against their own not only their best interests, but against their lives, against their possibility of surviving the pandemic, which is astounding. and by the way, the other thing that s very concerning, of
it would become a minor variant. i wouldn t be looking for ramping up on new vaccines or boosters to target this variant until we have more data. laura: but they are doing that. a number of vaccine manufacturers are on the hunt for this variant but won t it be the case this variant, we ve moved on to another variant by the time the next one comes out? seems a constant game of musical chairs with the vaccine. we have 99% delta. current vaccines are not keyed against delta. they are having a terrible time in terms of getting control, another delta peak, it is premature to jump on this variant until we see, the initial read is low transmissibility. this arose among those were vaccinated, travelers crossing so it is clear this variant is an evolutionary mistake that arose within the vaccinated. laura: the bottom line buttoning
boosters to try to target this variant until we have more data. laura: but they re doing that. i believe a number of vaccine manufacturers are on the hunt for the vaccine for this variant. but won t it be the case that this variant will have moved we moved on to another variant by the time the next one comes out? seems like it s a constant game of musical chairs here with the vaccine. well, we have 99% delta. our current vaccines are not keyed against delta. so they re having a terrible time in getting control. we re starting another delta peak right now. it s premature to jump on this variant until we have a chance to see. the initial read is low trans missability. by the way, this arose of those vaccinated travelers across botswana. so this is an evolution mistake that role within the vaccinated. laura: so the bottom line is
employees 59% of whom were teleworking at the peak government work during the pandemic. this should be shocking to exactly no one. federal workers are biden the lapse electoral bread and butter. in 2020 alone, nearly 96% of donations from the american federation of government employees and its members went to democrats. only 4% went to republicans. in terms of actual dollars, the afg and its members donated 25 times more to democrats than to the gop. whatever federal workers once they will eventually get as long as a democrat is in the white house. in an opium survey from 2020 published earlier this year federal workers gave this day at home flexibility high marks. their productivity did not suffer. my question is who is managing the managers, who is supervising them? it is like surveying high school students whether they want to get more vacation days or not, but don t worry. there are a lot of tips about
