Ongoing COVID-19 Mess

So, I've lost count of how many variants have shown up now. But, I expected that as this is a coronavirus and they are notorious for mutating. I remember early on in the pandemic when news hit that they pulled four family members out of a home in China and they each tested positive for different mutations of the virus. Yet, we trudge on with vaccines that might be somewhat effective...but likely less and less so as this is a time-dependent issue. The latest in California is the "double-mutant" model. I picture some cartoon-looking monster with that. That said - Last night the news covered several states that had each reported hundreds of people getting COVID post vaccination. That's not a surprise either. But, you'd think it'd be bigger news. Already ignored today.

Some parents in California are protesting outside of school district offices in preparation of the State folding the vaccine into the required list in the law SB277, which I expect will happen this summer. Don't be surprised if you see a PSA with The Cookie Monster or similar character encouraging the children about this.

    The plandemic has worked so well for the leftists that they will keep the sheeple living in fear for ever. I used to think that the masses would “eventually wake up”, but as time goes on I am see more masks in cars, masks on bicyclists, joggers, etc ... the 50 plus years of societal brainwashing has done irreparable damage to the concept of “EGO” and the concept of “I”. I think we are in the throws of Rand’s ‘ Anthem’.

    This saga will go on for years. It will become a background virus that will rear its "crown" until enough people have enough natural immunity to diminish its spread. Virus's do what virus's do. I am so over all of this BS. The governments can take my "vaccine passport" (if I had one) and place it where the sun rarely shines. Time to get on with life. The hospitals can piss and moan all they want about capacity - but I think that is what they signed up for when they entered the medical field - something about patient care comes to mind. They get paid for what they do - alot!

    by all medical definitions this is not a pandemic, but endemic now . Hosp adm and deaths are way down despite variable numbers. I have stated before that I am a vaccine advocate but I will not take this vaccine in any of the forms

      I can relate. I'm not an anti-vaxxer at all. This pandemic made me really reflect on that...And, I knew for sometime we'd likely see a pandemic in my lifetime. I knew that the people were divided on this and was interested to see how the public would react once the media/gov complex started hinting at mandatory vax FOR ADULTS. The reaction has been.....interesting. Consider the American public divided YET AGAIN by our government. I marvel at vaccines, really. But, I have knowledge and hard-won data on their risks. Would I take a vaccine again someday? Sure, if I could justify it. In my case - my father is dead and my son permanently living a life of hell because of them. That makes up part of what I draw from on this. STILL, not fully opposed to vaccinations.

      The one huge thing I will always say - The government/pharma "govopoly" is something to keep an eye on. Not hard to follow the money, for starters.

    iirc, based on past experience the mutations are less potent (less likely to cause serious illness or death) than the original?
    Make the drug companies pay people to take the "vaccines" and hold the companies financially responsible for any side effects once they pronounce the "vaccines" safe for use.
    Otherwise there should be no expectation of a safe, good quality product.
    Government has ruined this market as they ruin everything they meddle with.
