People have been talking about how hospitalization numbers are lagged since before Thanksgiving. It's been almost two months. It's time to stop hoping for doom and gloom and accept that it's over.

> People have been talking about how hospitalization numbers are lagged since before Thanksgiving

People have been saying that since 2020, but if you're talking about the current variant, omicron wasn't even given the omicron designation until the day after Thanksgiving.

It is quite offensive to suggest that anyone is “hoping for doom and gloom.”
