"Our results suggest that policymakers & individuals should consider maintaining NPIs & transmission-reducing behaviours throughout *entire* vaccination period."
Results of what? Rates of SARS-CoV-2 transmission & vaccination impact fate of vax-resistant strains
Modeling study
This isn't so much about the vax we are using. It's about leadership it seems? (A few tweets⬇️)
"Specifically, a concern is whether a combination of vaccination and transmission rates can create positive selection pressure on the emergence & establishment of resistant strains"
To address this issue, we implemented a model to simulate the probability of emergence of a resistant strain as a function of vaccination rates and changes in the rate of virus transmission, resembling those caused by non-pharmaceutical interventions and behavioural changes
Excellent thread by @LazarusLong13 here on the absolutely Trumpian situation we have here. People need to be getting in touch with their vacationing representatives and the White House on the Delta surge.
This is what Mitch McConnell has been doing all along during this pandemic.

This is coupled with obstruction, not just for Supreme Court & Merrick Garland, but the lower court, during Obama's presidency.
Thankfully the Dems have a conference call today at 1, to turn back time or something hopefully. <whisper> is it too late?
That Buzzfeed article above talks about the obstruction and the screenshot is behind a paywall, but Mitch McConnell has done a one-two punch of stopping Obama nominees and getting through Trump's, to mostly crickets (myself included). These nominees got through somehow. A legacy.
