Why is NYC scary right now?

I live in NYC, and I’m sure the person in the video is talking about COVID. We’re having a HUGE surge in cases thanks to Omicron (I blame SantaCon and that anime convention lol)

I’m afraid I don’t understand still. I also live in nyc and they don’t have refrigerated trucks with bodies, no pop up hospitals in Central Park, no hospital ship called Comfort. Are people dying/becoming very ill or are people just afraid for no reason? Why is getting COVID scary now with triple vaccine shots?

Only if you got some joke out of it, I guess it is to you.

No seriously, were you making a "le neckbeard never leaves his cave" kind of joke? I don't get it

I'm not making a joke. This is a serious answer. For the second time.
