yeah you are supposed to wait 90 days
corrupt incompetent government + dumb careless populace = that
I have doc friends there and they're all posting warnings that their hospitals are full/closed to new COVID patients again
A New Variant In The Philippines
A new SARS-CoV-2 variant has emerged once again, this time in the Philippines. The new variant bears a resemblance to the recently discovered Japanese variant (B.1.1.248) and the infamous Brazilian variant (P.1), known for its dangerous immune-escape capabilities.www.forbes.com
No wonder why this is one of the few Asian countries that locked back down again
Read that article, and it aint looking good smh. “New vaccines may come, for these new variants and the game of whack a mole will continue”.
So mutation after mutation were just gonna have to really play whack a mole with all these vaccines and keep “boosting” ourselves? Mannnn
It's upsetting to think that we wouldn't have to worry about these variants if we'd been better at controlling covid (less selfish) over the past year and especially the past 6 months. But people really really needed to go to parties. But yeah, all those "let it rip through the young people while we keep the elderly protected" takes were awful.
That said, I'm still cautiously optimistic that the variants aren't going to be a big problem. If anything we'll need yearly boosters. I'm 90% certain now they'll roll out a booster vaccine in late summer.
Yeah now we have vaccine development and production in place so we could deploy something within months or even weeks.Considering how quickly we rolled out all these vaccines this year AND they're proven safe & effective, I'm with you that we will have our first (and possibly even second) booster vaccines for the COVID variants by the end of this year.
But after that, we're basically on high alert from this point forward for every future variant out there.
Hell, this COVID virus is really a variant of the original SARS virus..........and we already contained the original SARS already.
I don't think we'll ever eradicate it. It'll just be something we live with, but instead of it being some novel, dangerous virus, it'll be something our bodies know how to fight off.Wishful thinking really if anyone things the variants will be controlled by boosters. I don’t see it going away as it’s highly unlikely the rest of the world will all get vaccinated enough to stop spread. At some point normal travel will occur again and the virus mutations will spread all around. It will probably be like the flu and eventually you won’t be able to even tell what you have.
Agreed. Basically how viruses have worked. It’s not like mankind had vaccines throughout our history. The human body will adaptI don't think we'll ever eradicate it. It'll just be something we live with, but instead of it being some novel, dangerous virus, it'll be something our bodies know how to fight off.
How bad do y'all think this spring break debacle affects numbers?
