HIPPYVALLEY Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 On 4/12/2021 at 9:10 PM, PhineasC said: The fantasies from people like Bill Gates that we can only reopen once the “entire world” is vaccinated are looking sillier every day. I just hope they let it go versus trying to force it. Expand The Brazilian and SA variants are more contagious and are showing protein spike mutations that reduce vaccine efficacy. We have 70 million kids in the US that won’t be vaccinated any time soon plus 20-30% of adults that may not get vaccinated. This will become endemic like seasonal flu until it burns itself out. I doubt we see mask mandates and certain restrictions lifted anytime soon in a lot of places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk Expand Many things out there don't make sense to me anymore. I think more and more people are looking around at all the weird, inconsistent rules and tweaked-out people scurrying about and coming to the same conclusion. Definitely some surreal moments to be had, like watching a group of depressed-looking people in masks shuffle forward in a queue between x marks on the carpet as a booming voice on the intercom tells them to ensure their masks are on properly at all times or they will be "removed from the premises for their own safety and the safety of others." It's kinda dystopian out there, TBH. I think a subset of the population is actually really enjoying this in a twisted way. They sure seem to get upset at anyone questioning it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
