Looks like living with the virus and the whole herd immunity by infection delusion is still no bueno.

The #GreatBarringtonVariant, also known as #B117, is trouble and regrets.

So of course, countries like Germany🇩🇪 will not relax their restrictions.

Of course.

Our problem:

"People who are used to betting that discuss medicine. On the stock market it can go well or badly but if it goes badly you lose money. In medicine, if you lose, people die. You can't bet. You can't try. You must always consider the worst case scenario."

I have asked myself since early February 2020 what is it that we are waiting for to finally start abiding by the whole 'err on the side of caution' mentality?

How much worse does it have to get for us to stop postponing and prolonging, to stop regretting and start preventing.
A year after and I’m still asking myself the same thing.

With sky high cases everywhere, with new variants here & there, how much longer until we err on the side of causing?

Repeating the same mistakes and expecting a different outcome is insanity.

Dumb insanity.

The new UK variant, also known as the #GreatBarringtonVariant, may be more deadly.

If indeed true—but even if it’s 'just' more transmissible & not more deadly—it looks like that whole Herd Immunity thing was just a really baaad idea. 🧵

Because unfortunately Europe "loves" to regret and not prevent.

Because sometime last year—in February/March—there was a mass allergic reaction to reality, common sense, and logic.

And unfortunately too many politicians and too many people have not recovered yet.

#COVID19
Cognitive dissonance is another big problem in Europe.

Sadly, it’s a worldwide phenomenon.
We even know of a graph that shows us our possible future regrets, and it’s still not enough.

It’s January 2021!

How is herd immunity still a thing?

It’s been, since last April, a callous delusion that the arrogantly ignorant & selfish—out of denial and/or malice—fall for.

It’s a cruel delusion that—out of greed—the self centered on a power trip push for.

🧵

#COVID19
As @mattbc and @Jandelliott said long ago, "Herd immunity strategies are about culling the herd of the sick and disabled. It's grotesque."

These "strategies" are STILL the product of delusional denials—out of greed, fear or disregard for others and #LongCovid—on repeat.
This 🧵 from @gregggonsalves is as heartbreakingly true today as it was last year.

Sometimes, you just need to be updated. Good thing I got @RunMorgans

June 3, 2020 in a long 🧵:

#CoronavirusPandemic (Because👋, still here)
#GeorgeFlyod (Because Trump didn't understand the heartbreak Floyd's death represented)
#USAonFire (Because it is)
"Its crazy. A couple of hours without knowing what's happening and now I'm lost."
"All is fine. Pour yourself a HUGE drink, take some Xanax and watch Trump's campaign video. I could not get through it."

Over 1.81 million cases and over 105,500 deaths.

Every person that will suffer, that will die, because of these protests, these riots, is on Trump and his accomplices.

Trump has used any diversion to distract from the Coronavirus pandemic and that is why he now pours oil into the fire.

His actions and inactions in the last weeks, and months, regarding the pandemic have ensured this outcome.

From the very beginning he has lied and denied.

2/
Played with people's fears and uncertainties.

He has thrived in confusion, misinformation and disinformation.

He has ensured that trust was misplaced, lost or forgotten.

Instead of leading by example he has selfishly divided the country.
