Coronavirus is one mutation away from infecting millions

Besides failing to save our fellows, we've created a generation of chronically ill and disabled.

The US has had the largest COVID-19 caseload in the world, that our relative number of outlier outcomes is high, is highly predictable.

yep, just like in VN war, the headline item has been "body counts", while ignoring that 100Ks, maybe Ms, out of 30M Americans infected so far, will suffer "long covid", perhaps for life, lives which will be shortened by heart, kidney, brain, etc permanent damage.

Capitalist for-profit health care will pockets $Ts providing care for the walking wounded of The Trash-Made Pandemic.

The walking wounded will have a horrendous, often failed, effort to obtain disability payments, just like adored military vets do.

I wasn't lobbying for any specific ranking, just emphasizing that besides the ongoing level of avoidable mass death, the panoply of effects on human health and society should be considered.

Well sure as soon as we get everyone out the crashed aircraft we should consider feeding them but I don't believe we've gotten to that point yet.

1. The next few months may be a painful chapter in America’s fight against the pandemic.

Declining infection rates, hospitalizations and deaths from the coronavirus have masked an increase in more contagious forms of the coronavirus, scientists say. As of March 13, the B.1.1.7 variant, which walloped Britain and is wreaking havoc on Europe, accounted for about 27 percent of new cases nationwide, up from just 1 percent in early February.

“The best way to think about B.1.1.7 and other variants is to treat them as separate epidemics,” one expert said.

At the moment, most vaccines appear to be effective against the variants. But public health officials are deeply worried that future iterations may require Americans to get regular rounds of booster shots or even new vaccines. "

"

The epidemiologists have been predicting correctly, eg, a few months ago, that B.1.1.7 to be widespread in March.

There is cluster of the Brazil variant in Massachusetts, which devastated Sao Paulo.

The pandemic doesn't give the tiniest if people are tired of masks, distancing, etc.

300K+ more dead Americans than necessary from The Trump-Made Pandemic.

Trump and his mafiya, the right-wing hate media, are guilty of criminal manslaughter, criminal reckless endangerment.

Evangelical leaders facing uphill battle convincing church members to get vaccinated



evangelical leaders are becoming more aware that their congregants aren't listening to public health advice on COVID-19 — and are taking a more active role in trying to get them vaccinated.

Franklin Graham,

"The vaccine is, to me, I believe, is saving life, and that's what Jesus Christ would want us to do, to help save life.

It's just a tool to help save life."

Many of Graham's followers have been enraged at his endorsement of the vaccine, calling it "heresy"

it's that the pathway to ending the pandemic runs through the evangelical church.

I mean, it's just undeniable statistically,"

said Curtis Chang, a former pastor and Duke Divinity School consulting professor involved with the effort. "

He was an idiot, whose sole purpose in life is to fleece people like you.

Keep deflecting from his failures. It's funny.

He killed hundreds of thousands of people, and you don't care.

as far as i'm aware, the Pfizer, Moderna, and J&J vaccines all hold up against P1

“In terms of the efficacy of the two mRNA vaccines (Moderna and Pfizer) against the P.1 variant, we can judge the effectiveness of the vaccines against different variants by examining not only neutralizing antibody responses, by remembering that immunity comprises two arms: antibody responses and T cells.” explained Gandhi. “T cells (CD4 and CD8 T cells) serve as the major immune defense against viruses, while complex CD4/CD8 responses are seen after natural Covid-19 infection across multiple epitopes (parts) of the virus.” “Similarly, very robust and in-breadth T-cell responses form against multiple parts of the e protein after mRNA vaccination and these T-cell responses are preserved against the P.1, B.1.351, B.1.1.7 and CAL.20C variants,’ she added.

“Despite the detection of the P.1 variant in New York City yesterday, I am not concerned about immune evasion from those who are vaccinated already,” emphasized Gandhi. “However, the best way to avoid further spread of virus, variants or otherwise, is to vaccinate as quickly as we can.”
