Once again, the New York City Dec 31, 2022 New Year's Eve Celebration / Times Square Ball Drop will happen, just like it did in 2020 and 2021. Because neither covid-19 nor even a New York City "Tridemic" that is "overwhelming healthcare systems" can interfere with the money to be made at this annual event. In 2020, despite covid-19 cases in New York City being significantly higher at the end of December 2020, compared to September 2020, the Ball Drop occurred, but the "Never Forget 9/11/2001" memorial service (in September 2020) was cancelled.

So, unsurprisingly, in 2022, despite a month or so of dire headlines warning everyone about the "Tridemic", the Times Square show will go on: COVID, Flu and RSV Hit NYC – Here's What Top Doctors Say on ‘Tridemic' Woes - "A triple threat of overlapping illnesses -- COVID-19, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and influenza -- is overwhelming healthcare systems"

How ironic the antivaxxer finds fault with NYC having a NYE celebration and posts negative Covid rant to start off the new year? Reject resentment and cynicism that bothersome fly that keeps coming back. If we do not strive to forgive and to love then we will not be forgiven and loved either.

Proverbs 18:21 KJV – Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

Sounds like this is the tourist event of the year, I've seen the crowds and would not go anywhere near there on Christmas eve,

I like the jester with the scythe and Death behind him. A bit macabre, but I like it a LOT!

Have a fabulous New Year.
