AFAIK the correct solution to the pandemic hasn't changed since 2019: test and trace, pay and support people who need to isolate. That's the only way you prevent spread and the rise of new variants. China did this, now they can roll out the vaccines on a voluntary basis and while they're not completely relaxing other policies, they're not experiencing giant outbreaks.

"Well China doesn't have to deal with a population of hogs and they did it right from the start, we're so overwhelmed with covid we can't take such a lenient approach with vaccination now" Isn't it still true that most unvaxxed are also uninsured, and have good reason to be skeptical of the government and pharmaceutical complex? Pushing the technocratic fix on people is engendering resistance, and it can't /just/ be from the hogs, can it?

I'm not sure if a real solution can be implemented in the US, but I don't understand why so many people on here are embracing the solution pushed by both liberal parties. Like, trying to get everyone to drive an electric car is not solving climate change.

Should we just get used to the masks? Am I wrong and it /is/ just the hogs throwing a tantrum?

Edit: I'm vaccinated for covid, I guess I've caught a little brainworms comrades. Thanks
