That was part of an early report. Part of it. It's looking like the vaccines may not be as effective, and some of the other treatments will be less effective. If you aren't already keeping masked, social distance, avoiding crowds, you need to start.
They are saying they have found it in Canada and Mexico, so it's probably here too. Don't panic, but stay vigilant. |
To be sure, I'm all for prudence. What stuck in my craw this time is that The Worst That Could Happen was hyped to the hilt, while the least that could happen was simply overlooked. I am so damned tired of this relentless fear mongering. Balanced reporting is dead.
