From your updates, I think we can assume that it has already spread through most of Europe.How far in numbers remains to be seen.
I wonder how they'll blame the unvaccinated. Originally found in travelers. No vax,no travel

In places like Israel the odds of being unvax’d are low so they’ll likely have a tough time.

Stupid question?

Why didn't we close all borders worldwide at the beginning of the pandemic?

Re: Sars Cov 2 … the grinder continues to eat away at resources and humanity.
I’m already hearing from family that the virus is mild. I tried to explain the keyword of “presents”...but to no avail. Also hearing the “100 days” until new vaccine so “we should be alright”. There really isn’t any discussion to be had about vaccines nowadays, that water is way too muddy and turbulent.

Although, there is some concern with respects to the actions countries are taking in comparison to Delta.

I’m more than happy to be wrong. But my batting average is better than their’s right now..soooo..

It would have destroyed the economies of whoever is in the lower 50% to begin with.

Which, soon after, would have toppled to dominoes in the other 50%.

Re: Sars Cov 2 … the grinder continues to eat away at resources and humanity.
Mild or no, I really don't want to catch this thing. I have a sneaking suspicion that the initial presentation may be mild, but that the long-term effects are very bad ... long covid, ME/CFS, etc. No proof there, just a hunch.

It seems unlikely that we will be able to stop rampant spread of this one. If it is even half as infectious as some are saying, it's going to hit basically then entire population, everywhere.

I guess we can hope for a best case scenario, in which it honestly IS mild, and gives some immunity without longterm repercussions. If so, this would be acting somewhat like a flu, and mutating into something truly endemic.

This pathogen is so weird, though, I really don't trust that to be the case.
Looks like freedom but it feels like death. It's something in between I guess... it's closing time.

Not even worth discussing. It’s endemic. That’s the fucked up part.

Closing borders now isn’t going to stop anything. And it’s not real. Trade and business travel still happens.

It goes back to sure it’s mild up front. They still got infected. They still now have increased x y z of the laundry list.

Not so much the economies, but the infrastructure.

You can ship goods without any real travel of humans.

But without engineers and other professionals traveling to do what they do in person, the great systems that make modern society work would crumble.

I was once hired to go to Taiwan to do a job. That means there was nobody in Taiwan that could do that job. Every day stuff like that happens, all over the world.

Testing is not accurate. Nor are showing of symptoms.

And you can disagree. Running a large grocery store requires tons of people.
