I guess I was saying I am not going to freak out….yet
Now if I was unvaccinated or lived somewhere with real low vaccinated rates I would probably freak out
There was a great article about DHS Secretary Becerra saying something about how we need to focus on severity of cases and not “new cases”
My concern about letting Covid19 variants burn through populations is rise of new mutations like what if we get one that spreads really easily AND is super deadly… seems like if viruses weaken this is unlikely?
The unvaccinated are freaking out, but not necessarily what
you would have them freaking out about.
I spoke to my mom yesterday, and she told me she's "thinking of moving to Florida, because Biden is going to put all of the unvaccinated in concentration camps (that Obama built.)"
I reminded her that Florida is part of the United States, and posed the question that "wouldn't they have the camps in Florida too?" And she said that "No, Governor Desantis is very strong, and he would never allow that to happen."
We moved on to talking about how it looks like it's going to be 60 here on Xmas, and I mentioned global warming. And she replied, "Oh I don't believe all that crap, it's all man-made."
And I said "Of course it's man-made, we've been doing all the wrong things for many years." And she replied, "No, I'm talking about the giant machine in Alaska they control the weather with."
We then moved on to talking about her aging dog and all of his vet bills, and the new false teeth she finally sprung for. Though I did make one last pitch for her to get the vaccine by mentioning all the unvaccinated people on their death beds who were belatedly begging for the vaccine. She replied that she won't get sick because she takes her vitamins and has stopped sharing the elevator with anyone in her building.
Anyway, your concern about a more deadly mutation ripping through the population is one I share. I guess great minds think alike, or watch Station Eleven.
