I like how the headline is for +70% increased spread but at the end they slip in that there is another strain that is +80%-90% with increased viral load. But that’s in Africa so it doesn’t really count I guess?
I like how when people do that whole masks, social distancing, and hygiene thing, but not enough to wipe it out completely, this just creates selective pressure.
Not only that but one solid month of real lockdown, no leaving your house level shit, would have been waaayyy less damaging to people and society then these last 9 months of half measures
we basically picked the worst of both worlds because “the economy” obviously got fucked anyway
New Covid just dropped
We half-assed our response to a viral pandemic allowing it to mutate. Good fucking gravy.
Exactly. These mutations aren’t popping up in NZ or China because they didn’t let the virus bounce freely around their population for the past 9 months
