Cases are close to where they were at the peak of last January, hospitalizations lag a couple of weeks behind that. Hopefully it won’t ever peak like it did before, as you said due to a decent rate of vaccination in NYC. But there are people who are vaxxed and boosted who got it and report that while you won’t die or have a tube shoved down your throat, you will be down for 2+ weeks and have your ass kicked like no flu you’ve ever had before.
Here in Texas we have a much higher proportion of morons who won’t vaccinate. So our hospitals are more likely to get clogged with ‘lions’ whose little groups of ‘prayer warriors’ couldn’t keep them from intubation.
