In case it’s not obvious: SK has a population of 52M. If that proportion of infections/cases carries over to the US, then it would be higher than any of our peaks so far. Having that many people sick (1.2% of 350M) at once would be a disaster. Even the line cult should be afraid. Imagine if 3M people didn’t show up for work one day. Or they had to take 5 days off. Other countries are going to do the right thing and close down again. There goes the supply chain stuff again. No one in the US is going to want to stop it because even the Dems want covid to be over. That means it’s going to run through us without any problems. Even if 1% of the infections result in hospitalization, all ICUs will be taken up.
Enjoy whatever we have now while you can. Go out, have your bit of post-covid fun. But get your boosters if you haven’t and start preparing for a repeat of 2020.
Covid is the biggest example of all anti-China propaganda just being flat-out wrong, because if people actually wanted to “beat China” they would have done the same thing and locked everything down
Covid convinced me that China is the only country on Earth that withstand the climate collapse.
Yeah I’ve already half way made up my mind about moving there at some point in the mid-term future.
How welcoming are they to random European techbros? I’d be of course willing to learn the language and everything else that’s needed.
