Omicron scary level 1 to 10

probably 0 or 1. we're all vaccinated honestly

not yet

What scares me far more than any variant is how the government decided to inadvertently encourage people to not get vaccinated.

It's winter and unvaccinated people are now allowed to work from the safety of their own home again while the rest of us may not.

It's like they're being rewarded for their anti vaxx stance. They're probably laughing at the rest of us who got vaccinated and now have to continue to go out and risk infection with omicron in cold stormy weather.

are you talking about the countries where unvaccinated people are on lockdown?

Covid: The country locking down the unvaccinated

Some two million people without Covid-19 jabs have been told to stay home in Austria.

No, there's no lockdown here. You're free to go wherever you want. But you're allowed to work from home again if you're unvaccinated. I'm not sure if it's a regional thing. But it's pretty idiotic.

Honestly, 1 or less. We're all learning to live with Covid anyway, so new variants or not, it's not going to change my daily life.

3 considering that omnicron could basically step over the vaccine that we got but my uni has 99.6 vaccination rate and pretty much everyone wears a mask. Safe to say though that we in for another shitload if omnicron is as deadly as contagious

Frankly, I'm not worried by it. Australia pretty much has COVID under control now and our vaccination rates are nearly 100%. In fact, in my state they are talking about getting rid of masks and check ins next week which would be absolutely wonderful. We just have to learn with the evil thing.

I think it's a 1, it hasn't been prevalent from where I live at

It think this Corona/Covid-19 actions is a bit overblown. Pretty much everone will get it sooner or later. I had it about half year ago, a nasty cough and a bit fever, but not a big deal. Yes, it's can be dangerous, but mostly for the eldery, but ordinary flues are also can be deadly for older people. After most people have had it at least one time it will just be like an ordinary cold that we will get from time to time. In contries with where most people are vaccinated I think it's better to just let it be an treat it like ordinary colds and flues without any speciall treatments.

Me and almost all of my friends and family are fully vaccinated (all except my dad who's gonna get it asap, and one friend that unfortunately is antivaxx), so I don't have a big fear. I also live in a small town. However we do have Omicron in my country, and lots of covid in my town now (unsure of which type it is). I'd say I'm on a 5. I don't have a big fear of getting sick (I still keep my distance to strangers and wear a mask), what I fear more is that the virus will mutate even more and eventually become so different and strong that the vaccine we have won't work at all anymore.

1. I think it was a lot scarier last year..

no havoc

My state hasn't even gotten over the first wave so at this point it's just like keep it coming lol...

because it's unknown i'll give it a 7, yikes with all this variants, god knows when covid will ever end

Pretty much 0. Some dude went to an anime convention in New York and brought it to my state. According to him he basically got over it really fast.

I’m not changing my daily life anymore
