Ah figured something like that. NZ and Japan kept it at bay about the best anyone has.
Once Omicron got loose she's all over though.
Or government bought time for vaccines and a less deadly variant. Once it's out your options are very limited.

Same thing happened here. In a few weeks everything fell apart and government gave up due to lack of options.
Mask use is excellent locally vut it seems we might be in a bubble here.
1500+ dead now and 4200 odd cases per day.
Covid-19 update: 4238 new community cases, number of attributed deaths rises to 1502
The number of deaths in New Zealand confirmed as attributable to Covid-19 has risen above the 1500 mark, as 4238 new community cases are reported today.

Some goods news: The German RKI officially views the latest summer wave to be at an end. Incidence just fell by again (-27% compared to previous week) and is now at 345.9.
49,839 new cases yesterday, although by now everybody expects a large number to be no longer registered. I am probably not registered either. Apparently only positive PCR tests are counted and many, including me, don't bother with them. I mean I had a cough plus a positive quick test at the test center so the situation was clear to me. Why bother wasting lab resources just to confirm what is already obvious? I just went home for 5 days and then back to the test cent for another quicktest on days 6/8/10 until I was finally negative again.
So it seems we'll can enter a short quite phase to better distinguish the ended summer wave from the next winter wave that will surely start in a few month.
My light cough is persisting but not much of a bother. I again go to the gym regularly and do my usual cardio and strength days without any decrease in my performance. I did visit my doctor and he says that a persisting cough stimulus is one of the most common post covid symptoms he sees in his patients. He stethoscoped my breathing and said I sound perfectly fine. He prescribed me a cortisone spray to use every morning and evening, but using it during the last two days actually made me feel worse. I'll give it a chance over the weekend, but if the cure continues to be worse than the disease I will stop using it and just wait until the cough vanishes on it's own, even if it will take another month.

Yeah, cough can be an indication of a genuine problem or just an indication of some low-end irritation your body is overreacting to. This is particularly common with lingering coughs.

Yeah. My in-laws cruise, for which they've already booked after many pandemic postponements, has been redirected from Japan to Hawaii.
