Covid Pandemic

[SouthSardiswx]

Looks like the U.S. is in for another rough go models show 60,000 cases a day and 850 deaths a day, by October.
Will this ever end or is this our new life forever now.

It is endemic. Even if 100% of the population gets vaccinated, it will always be here. We will all get it eventually. We can get vaccinated and get a milder case, or roll the dice and risk a more serious infection by not being vaccinated.

We need to get back to normal and let everyone get it as fast a possible because dragging it out for years with more lockdowns and masking just delays the inevitable, and risks even more variants popping up before we get herd immunity.

Got the 2nd jab today double vacc'd feeling great.
It was a Dr. that gave me the jab said eventually we'll need boosters and your right Glace it's an endemic. probably many varients to come.

And here we go again 342 today in B.C. majority in the Okanagan.
Nonetheless scary times indeed.

Apparently 1 case of the Lambda varient has been detected in B.C.
There's an article in the Vancouver Sun, sheets guess it'll never end its tearing through south American country's.

If you ignore it it’s not scary at all.

I've done all I can do. I'm not going to worry about people who literally choose to keep this pandemic going when you have a free, safe and effective vaccine available. I'll still wear a mask at stores but hell no at work this year.

The next variant of interest John.

l know Mr. Kells it's just one after another, tiring.

l'm trying John still scary.

Thoughts Mr. Kells, do you think if we didn't have vaccines that restrictions would be in place again with this 4th wave?
Seems it's like ride it out we have protection this time.
Guess l'm still concerned about some sort of doomsday variants l heard talk of a Delta variant on steriods may be coming.

I think you might need to stop watching the news or social media.

Get outside and enjoy the nice summer weather.

Lmao. had a shower today and I was drenched in sweat 5 minutes later. This weather gives lots of people a similar depression to winter greyness. It just isn't conducive to actually doing anything other than sitting and drinking beer.
