Are superspreader events a thing of the past or do we simply accept illness from public gatherings now? The media is simply no longer reporting about large clusters of infections like they did at the start of the pandemic. The United States defunded and scaled back its testing and contact tracing programs in early 2022, and in doing so,it became less clear just how widespread COVID-19 is. What we don’t see or hear about doesn’t exist in the public coincidence.
Superspreading events after large gatherings like concerts, weddings and conferences are still very much a thing.Being vaccinated or having a previous infection does not stop you from re-infection with the new variants like XBB.1.5 which now dominates the country.
A superspreader is also a name of an infectious person who is asymptomatic but very contagious. Some people Some people shed a bit of virus for a couple days, whereas others shed a lot of virus for longer periods of time and run the risk of infecting a ton of people. Typhoid Mary didn’t realize she was infecting others. in the early 1900s she infected over 55 people. She spread disease by not properly washing her hands, but today COVID is airborne so a superspreader simply had to exhale in a room to infect others.
Today we don’t really know how common superspreader events are because there’s so little testing. The worst thing President Biden did was supply a few at home tests to each American household and then declare that the pandemic is over when it clearly is not. His gaslighting, has resulted in over 700,000 deaths and is an act of mass murder. People want to believe life has returned to normal and they will believe any lie to attend superspreader events just as they did before the start of the pandemic.
