its weird how little people are talking about and preparing for the B117. Like, we've learned nothing and everyone that I know that knows about what is going to happen is like "lol, yeah, its gonna suck, butwhatchagonnado?
so far overall cases are going down, so it "might" not matter and the vaccines "might" be enough to stop the spread. but i got my eyes on texas
That's still not bad. It's just as vital as ever that we vaccinate.
Getting a vaccine could be the difference between getting horribly sick and dying from the SA strain vs getting it and beating it without severe COVID. Even if it has somewhat evolved around natural immunity.
A guy I follow on twitter explained it as the goal of vaccines is to reduce COVID to a much less deadly disease. It still does that.
Certainly, I just think it's important that we keep in mind how rapidly new strains are arising and that vaccine and immune resistant strains already exist.
