    Not going to argue on that it just going to be really hard to keep up with new variants at some point could turn South real quick - Lock downs, Civil Unrest, etc. It doesn’t take much to move a civilized society to basic barbaric real quick - I am not talking about people against vaccine more of economy shutting down - People loosing jobs, Inflation out of control, supply side issues getting basic food and medicine to people. I would hate to be living in a major city during these times.
    Sound like the plot for a cheezy Bollywood movie, tbh. Odds of that happening after vaccines are available (and the upcoming treatments like the pills) are fairly low.

    It actually does take quite a bit for an actual civilized society to turn barbaric. I mean, this isn't even close to the first time we have to deal with a pandemic like this one and none of those things happened. Not now, not 100 years ago with the Spanish Flu.

    The economic malaise is real though, but that's why it's important to have an active government in times of emergencies.

    I would actually rather be living in a major city than the backwoods, close to the best hospitals and clinics with the latest equipment and treatments, tbh... but that's just my preference.

    He's lucky his horrific response to the pandemic distracted away from his attempt to get us into the decades long neocon wet dream war with Iran. And we're lucky Iran acted like the adults in the room.
    Adults who shoot down their own airliners.

    This is what centers for disease control and the WHO are for. There are plenty tracked viruses we don't hear about because we got them under control. Right now it's the news media looking to pimp fear. You have some here who just love it when there's new fear porn to regurgitate and warn about. Everyone's going to die eventually.

    30% is now considered effective? Monoclonals as of today are around ~80% effective, by comparison.

    Among more than 1,400 adults in a company study, molnupiravir reduced the combined risk of hospitalization and death by 30%, less than the 50% initially reported based on incomplete results.
    Molnupiravir is mutagenic. What could go wrong?

    (Merck says rodent studies disclose no problems here.)

    Merck’s drug uses a novel approach to fight COVID-19: it inserts tiny mutations into the coronavirus’ genetic code to stop the virus from reproducing.
    But that genetic effect has raised concerns that in rare cases the drug could cause birth defects or even spur more virulent strains of the virus.

    No disputes that everyone will die.

    Pretending like COVID wouldn't be a big deal absent media coverage is out of touch.

    Media coverage doesn't make it less of a deal. It makes it more of a deal than it probably is, just like other they cover until a squirrel crosses the WH lawn.

    Not sure what you're laughing about. The presentation of disease can be mild and still escape current vaccines and treatments. With emergent phenomena initial reports can be noisy. We've seen it time and again with notorious crimes people try to make political hay out of in this forum.

    Vaccinated world/unvaccinated world is like having "a pissing end of the pool and a non-pissing end."

    COVID itself has decimated healthcare workers and caused three US states to declare emergency healthcare rationing, but SnakeBoy points the finger at vaccine mandates.

    Dishonest!
