Was reading this post and was absolutely terrified. It's gonna be bad.
Take away is that current lock downs are basically useless against the new strain as it has mutated enough to be more transmissible thru/around mask. Vaccines are still likely to work, and its not more deadly (seems like), but just going to blow thru our preventive measures like nothing.
Reposting because the first post didn't get enough traction and I need people to commiserate with me. Pulled out the money shot image, because I know libs don't read .
I was terrified now, and now I will be even more terrified. Argentina is experiencing a rebound as we speak, many hospitales are overwhelmed, 45k have died so far. The situation is very delicate, and so is my mental health. I cannot go through another year of this, lockdown, the constant fear of infecting myself and then infecting my mother, being jobless, with 27 years in this cursed planet and literally no future. It's going to cause a lot of damage.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Solidarity.
