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 .
Yea you just have to look at the UK and Ireland to see that anywhere the new strain takes hold can expect to see things go to shit very quickly. Bascially the only chance to limit it is a full lockdown, every workplace except emergency services closed. Capitalist countries won't do this so expect far worse than you've seen so far.
you gonna believe your own lying eyes and every moment of your life under capitalism, or Science?
