I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Iceland (93% of the population 16 years of age or older vaccinated) is experiencing its largest wave of Covid-19 yet. At this point, I think it is unreasonable to assume that increased vaccine coverage will result in herd immunity pic.twitter.com/k8mUZAtIGO

Looks like the vaccines are working to me. All this shows is that the Johnson & Johnson vaccine isn’t very good at preventing infection compared to the others.

Still, good to know. Also, he’s probably wrong about herd immunity, depending on the vaccine used. AZ and J&J: probably not. Pfizer and Moderna: probably so. These difference matter.

But they want you to panic now, want you all herded back inside. Bezos needs a few more billion for important space projects.
