As reported in the Washington post and reposted here at Covid is still a leading cause of death @ יואל קסלר. COVID 19 in still a major cause of mortality in the US, even as it is no longer front and center in the public view. Below is an excerpt from the Washington Post article.
כפי שדווח בפוסט בוושינגטון ופורסם כאן כי נגיף הקורונה הוא עדיין גורם מוות מוביל @ יואל קסלר. נגיף הקורונה הוא עדיין גורם תמותה עיקרי בארה"ב, אפילו שהוא כבר לא נמצא בראש ובראשונה בעיני הציבור.
"Millions of Americans gathered maskless in homes and houses of worship this month for Passover, Easter and Ramadan — the latest evidence that coronavirus has retreated from public view as the pandemic winds down.
But retreat is not the same thing as eradication: Federal health officials say that covid-19 remains one of the leading causes of death in the United States, tied to about 250 deaths daily, on average, mostly among the old and immunocompromised.
Few Americans are treating it as a leading killer, however — in part because they are not hearing about those numbers, don’t trust them or don’t see them as relevant to their own lives.
“We’re not presenting the data in a way that resonates with the American people,” said Deborah Birx, who served as the first White House coronavirus coordinator under President Donald Trump, citing research that finds elevated risks of health complications and death in the months after a covid infection."
