New York City is facing a critical staffing shortage of first responders as there are more NYPD officers and emergency medical services personnel out sick this week than at any point in the pandemic, city officials said Thursday.

"We’re at the highest level that I’ve ever seen in my career. When you look at March of ’20 — we peaked at 19.8, 20%. We hit 21% today," NYPD Commissioner Dermot Shea said Thursday about the number of officers who were sick.

About 30% of all emergency medical services staff members were also out sick on Thursday, which is slightly higher than the peak shortage in March and April 2020, when roughly 25% of staffers were on medical leave, an FDNY spokesperson told Fox News Digital.

I read the 7 day average of new cases is 265,000 for the US. It has accelerated add who knows when it would peak. Anti-Vaxxers good luck. I find it silly that some of those unvaccinated who contract Omicron will ask or demand for snake oil as a remedy.

They are like Custer. He made too many assumptions and ignored facts. They also dismounted which prevented their mobility to retreat. Some of the soldiers ran for their lives but the horses were faster. He made so many mistakes due to his assumptions.
