Careful, posting realistic assessments of the nature of this virus and pandemic will cause some to complain you're rooting for the virus, anti-freedom, or some other nonsense.
The reality is that until the US and other "shithole" countries realize herd immunity will never develop naturally, the entire planet is in grave danger. A coordinated and concerted worldwide effort will be needed to hope to control this, featuring enough current vaccines to administer to over 90% of the population, and effectively no community spread... whenever those two conditions are met, there may be a chance. Any guesses?

Murray had until recently been hopeful that the discovery of several effective vaccines could help countries achieve herd immunity, or nearly eliminate transmission through a combination of inoculation and previous infection. But in the last month, data from a vaccine trial in South Africa showed not only that a rapidly-spreading coronavirus variant could dampen the effect of the vaccine, it could also evade natural immunity in people who had been previously infected.
“I couldn’t sleep” after seeing the data, Murray, director of the Seattle-based Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, told Reuters. “When will it end?” he asked himself, referring to the pandemic.
