11/But perhaps most importantly, the mRNA vaccines can be modified much more quickly to address resistant strains.
That's going to be VERY important if a strain escapes the vaccines, and it's going to be helpful for fighting the South Africa variant.https://t.co/E7zFWnUetO

Ayup. The situation is actually a whole lot better than the lockdown scammers are portraying it to be now. For the first time, I am optimistic.
Oh, Covid is endemic now. Itโs going to be with us forever. Covid Zero is not a thing that will ever happen in reality. But we have the tools and the tech to reduce it to very low levels, and slap the shit out of variants as they occur with fast vax ramp-ups and boosters.
Weโre not out of the woods yet, but we can see the edge of the forest from the hilltop. Now we just need to get the vaccinating done and suppress the lockdown scammer pod-yearners and by summer, things will be much improved.
