This is a marketing stunt for when they re-introduce Covid Classic
Y’all can afford classic? I’m on Covid lite with some shitty pneumonia freemium pop ups
I still think nuclear annihilation is probable, once the effects of the two things you mentioned really kick into high gear. It's a fuckin' miracle we aren't already dead, honestly.
yeah in my timeline we died from top soil nutrient depletion before some shitty virus took us out
weak ass timeline
Yeah I'm sure a rarely lethal or even hospitalizable illness for which vaccines already exist and are increasingly available in more and more countries is gonna end humanity somehow.
What is it with people constantly predicting the end of the world? Is it the "easier to imagine etc etc" thing? Lately like 80% of this forum is "x will totally end humanity again, holy shit", it's weird and grating.
Having flashbacks to Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, the aside where all the "undesirables" were sent away on a colony ship and their home world succumbed to a pandemic because all of the people who sanitized telephone receivers as a job were on the colony ship.
Typical COVID case would infect 3 others, typical Delta case infects 6.
That is a factor of 2x.
Yeah shits' fucked and gonna get worse, buckle up. If COVID don't get ya, climate change will probably render uninhabitable the place you call home.
Smoke em if you got em. :doomer:
Dying of cancer and slamming the morphine release button again and again is current vibe in america rn
If an escape variant manages to take hold, the death toll under Biden will make Trump look like he was the “believe the science” guy all along.
He’s probably gonna lead into holiday season telling everyone it’s time to take their masks off and be with family as “Delta is over folks, god bless our scientists, now please remember to get your booster shot”.
an R0 of 6 is INSAAAAANE
it's basically a completely new disease
Wait for the lambda variant to get big after the delta wave. It's bad folks
Load is whatever, biggest issue is it requires higher mask-wearing percentage :/
This variant turns unvaccinated people into covid fumigators so probably, yeah. Countries that had a handle on things for most of the pandemic, like Vietnam, are struggling to contain this shit.
Well they also aren't following the same stringent protocols and are having a tough time getting the vaccine because all the colonizers are hoarding and throwing it into the ocean.
:Distrubuting vaccine efficiently in order to buoy trade partners:
:Holding it over their heads for clout / dick measuring:
Make your choice western man :eu-cool:
and then with the booster all the production goes right back to :countries-cool:
I have no idea how it can be that high without murdering every unvaccinated human in five weeks. I guess I don't really get the significance of viral load if 1000X increase only increases lethality and contagiousness a few times over.
