The European Commission said that between 60% and 80% of the EU population was estimated to have been infected with COVID-19, as the bloc enters a post-emergency phase in which mass reporting of cases was no longer necessary.

A show of hands, who here has had covid?

    I did in early March this year. Only a few weeks before the NL government decided to abolish all countermeasures that were still in effect. P.S.: I indeed have had three shots of Pfizer’s vax (including my booster). My experience was that Omicron is survivable, but far from fun.

      Survivable only if you’re healthy. I for one, live with my 80+ year old grandparents, and I’m terrified of them getting it because some asshole at university decided not to wear a mask or get vaccinated.

        Fair enough, if you live with vulnerable folks that makes matters way harder.
