Was reading this post and was absolutely terrified. It's gonna be bad.

Take away is that current lock downs are basically useless against the new strain as it has mutated enough to be more transmissible thru/around mask. Vaccines are still likely to work, and its not more deadly (seems like), but just going to blow thru our preventive measures like nothing.

Reposting because the first post didn't get enough traction and I need people to commiserate with me. Pulled out the money shot image, because I know libs don't read .

    Ya it's bleak. Virus mutations that are more contagious vs more deadly means much more virus spread. Viruses with high lethality kill people before they can spread the virus. I keep hearing Covid will eventually be like the common cold or flu, but who the hell knows when that will be. Sick of living like this.
