Less than 1 in 6 get it, but of that 1 in 6 only 1.6% die.
Here a little Covid Math problem for morons:
Two days ago, prior to attending a large social gathering, Joey tested negative for Covid. Yesterday, he also tested negative and hosted a small social gathering at his house, having 4-5 friends over for drinks. Right after the small gathering last night, Joey tested positive for Covid. All of the people who were over for drinks at his house yesterday have tested negative today. Sandy, who was in close contact with him at the large social gathering two days ago, has also tested negative today. There are no other reports of positives from that larger gathering. Everyone involved is fully vaccinated. Christmas is 2 days away.
Can Sandy attend Christmas festivities with her family or does she need to wait 3-5 more days until she gets another negative test because she might still test positive?
