An estimated 94% of people in the U.S. have been infected with the COVID-19 virus at least once, according toThe big reason for the surprising surge? The omicron variant’s record-shattering case rates early this year and middling booster rates that fell short of what experts had hoped to see.

A preprint of the paper, which has not yet been peer-reviewed, was published this week on a website called MedRxiv. The findings contain uncertainties because they are based on a statistical analysis of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-reported diagnoses, hospitalizations and vaccinations, rather than antibody testing of a representative sample of Americans.

The researchers from Harvard, Yale and Stanford set out to understand how immunity to the virus had changed since December 2021. The calculations studied “the competing influences” of new vaccinations and infections and the waning of immunity earned from them. The study estimated that in less than a year there were 116 million first infections in the country and 209 million reinfections, nearly all from omicron sub-variants.

America is strong on Thanksgiving two years after COVIDI am a health care leader who has seen the strength of the American spirit up close over the last two years of COVID. Join me in giving thanks for those who have served our country. Terrible message. But, no doubt you'll be doing some sort of new dance routine to celebrate we have MORE deaths of the vaccinated over the NON vaccinated? And I am sure you are sad for all those soldiers who would not take the job, and were let go? That’s the progress of the American Rescue Plan and the leadership of President Joe Biden at work!💙💙 Not really. Too many are sick and dying from the vaccinations forced on them by a corrupt government and lying CDC and WHO.
