Incredibly, UNBELIEVABLY, many Americans do NOT say the ultimate persuader will be the miserable, horrendous deaths of 576,000 human beings and climbing. 

Five. Hundred. Seventy. Six. THOUSAND. People. Dead. Gone. Poof.

Amazing, ain't it? What's the over/under that it'll be a million? Say by year's end. These people are so ignorant that it defies belief. It's disgusting.

I year ago I thought maybe, just maybe, my country persons would come together and we'd be fine by summer of last year. How naive I was.

I was just looking at holiday fabric in case I need to be making more masks come Christmas 2021...sigh.  I have little faith in my fellow country persons.

I had a brief moment like that, too. I think we actually could have if the President actually admitted that it was a terrible problem to be solved, and thought about someone other than himself, and shut the fuck up and let the experts talk. But I knew that was impossible and that we were fucked.

I just read that vaccine hesitancy and new variants will ensure that the U.S. never hits herd immunity (and likely other countries too). Covid19 in some form is here to stay.

Still, the more that get vaccinated, the better it will be.

An oral vaccine that means I don't have to deal with fucking needles ever again?

Treatment (protease inhibitor), not vaccination.

Nasal administered vaccinations are also in the works.

Reaching ‘Herd Immunity’ Is Unlikely in the U.S., Experts Now Believe
nytimes.com
Quote:Widely circulating coronavirus variants and persistent hesitancy about vaccines will keep the goal out of reach. The virus is here to stay, but vaccinating the most vulnerable may be enough to restore normalcy.

Now, more than half of adults in the United States have been inoculated with at least one dose of a vaccine. But daily vaccination rates are slipping, and there is widespread consensus among scientists and public health experts that the herd immunity threshold is not attainable — at least not in the foreseeable future, and perhaps not ever.

Instead, they are coming to the conclusion that rather than making a long-promised exit, the virus will most likely become a manageable threat that will continue to circulate in the United States for years to come, still causing hospitalizations and deaths but in much smaller numbers.
