Doctor on potential COVID spike after holidays and best masks to wear

The average number of new COVID-19 infections in the U.S. has surged to more than 176,000 new cases per day, the CDC said. Dr. Susannah Hills, a pediatric airway surgeon and assistant professor at Columbia University Medical Center, spoke with Jessi Mitchell on CBSN about the latest coronavirus spike and which masks offer the best protection against the virus.

Shame on this media and the dangerous things they do to our children!!

I'm absolutely positive the 4th shot will solve everything. If not then certainly the 5th and 6th will.


But, I swear, if the 7th doesn't get us get us back to normal then I'm defiantly going to reconsider getting my 8th.

I'm so glad to see these rates. Knowing the fact that this new variant has almost no death rate per WHO, means this thing is almost over. I know many people who have gotten it and are unvaccinated and have only had a low grade fever.

Imagine the number of dislikes on this

Wait!!!! I thought over 70% of Americans are vaccinated….why are the Covid cases higher than last year when no one was vaccinated?

[alexmcdonald]

So far 0 people in the US have died from Omicron

Almost everybody I know has it, almost everybody I know says it’s a weak flu. Don’t be afraid of live your lives

[TangPolice]

Now Its time to be afraid of common cold symptoms! What's next? "Why exercising is racist?" If you buy any of this there is a reason you need to be told what to be afraid of. You have a tough time stringing an innovative/coherent sentence together if you follow any of the news today.

So now after 21 months we're being advised on what masks to wear...this is beyond ridiculous

[bradleyisclutch]

didn’t care the first time around. won’t be caring again this time around. I’m going to live my life my way, since i only get one life at it.

[fumagoo]

I was just around people with covid, and i got sick, i chilled for a few days. ate raw garlic and all that. took care of myself. i feel great today

[joefran]

The bottom line. They want to put this in every human being. Kids don't die from it let them build a natural immune to it.

[LibbySherman]

Thankful to see all the people who have rejected the fear mongering. God bless you all.

[areuaware]

The news media never have to prove one thing that they say.

[interdimensional-ehyk]

I love the comments keep on waking people up.

[FirstLast.....]

Sorry but I don't trust anything with the cBS tag on it.

[KeemieKEZ]

What percent of childhood COVID cases are hospitalized? % unvaxxed vs % vaxxed? Give us hard data!

[SuperEagle]

600+ views and 19 likes…. Gee I wonder why they removed the ability to see dislikes.

In Oregon you can die in a automobile accident and still be listed as a covid death

Only 2 years and all your freedom to flatten the curve.
