Coronavirus (COVID-19) Discussion Thread

[LurkerJ]

This whole thing with the vaccines make me feel uneasy. The richer get it first, the poorer get it last, all because of where we were born or where we live. We're not even sure what the hell they're getting with these Chinese vaccines with questionable data.

What a sad sad world we live in, a world that a year later, still can't muster a unified response to a pandemic that's affecting us all. No universal stimulus package, no well-planned lockdowns, no basic understanding of why the lockdowns are failing and how we can make them work, not. This is gonna go on and on and on and on and on, front-line workers re-infection rates are alarming only 6 months after the first infection, and those are the ones who were heavily exposed and generated a strong immune response to the first infection. Vaccines aren't promising you an infection free world, they're being sold on the premise of preventing the severer form of the disease. 

We're not taking this seriously enough and the price to be paid is yet to be known.
