AAQ,
Re the data for the lack if increase in Covid cases, more so hospitalized cases, I am not sure it’s possible to obtain such data. However, there was and continues to be almost no social distancing as well as regular school schedule, as has been for a very long time. As of recent, there has not been any significant increase of hospitalizations in these communities (referring to US/Tri state area).
That might very well change, hopefully it will not.
While you request that I provide the data, I believe that you would have to provide data that disproves this, since your pushing for mandates and blaming others for not following the social distancing and masking recommendations. Besides, you can verify this by reaching out to the hospitals or local EMS agencies (doubt they would release any info to you).
But the rest of us can rely on anecdotal information and personal observations. Especially if you live or work on the above mentioned areas. Even more so, if you work in facilities that deal with Covid patients.
I am not against masks or social distancing, and it may be that those are important. However, lets not pretend as if we have it all figured out. It may very much be that the social distancing caused a significant low risk population to remain vulnerable and available to keep the virus alive, which left is scrambling on how to deal with this new wave of Covid.
I do sincerely believe that we all want to find ourselves on the other side of this horrible saga. It’s just that we all bring our biases to the table and which makes it difficult for all sides to come together.
