We’re also seeing more “breakthrough”cases where vaccinated people are getting COVID and becoming hospitalized as the antibodies from the vaccine weaken. The wicked unvaccinated are probably getting COVID from the vaccinated who are carriers of these more virulent strains. I think the claim that the mRNA vaccines are causing COVID to mutate faster into more transmissible and possibly deadly strains is probably the best explanation.
Nobody is asking why in 2020 at this time COVID cases and hospitalizations were steady or in decline without a vaccine yet this year cases they both spiked during a time of year when they shouldn’t. My area saw a surge in cases but vaccinations did not dramatically increase. Building up agriculture to feed their own people? The world could get really crazy really fast if we don’t cave in and send them vaccine. I think we better send them vaccine before they get reckless and carry out these threats!!! Who knows what else they may threaten: Building their own roads, communications, utilities. Concluding that they can no longer rely on the west’s promises, they set up their own bulk-purchasing agency, and are now intent on building their own vaccine manufacturing capability.Īfrica is going to buy their own vaccine, rather than wait for handouts from Daddy WHO? And build their own domestic pharmaceutical industry so they won’t be reliant on Western charity? Unsurprisingly, African nations have registered their anger, with pleas this week from African leaders, the Mandela-inspired Elders group and African NGOs for vaccine equity. Well, Africa is losing patience, has become completely fed up, and boy are they going to fix our wagons: The idea is that the West should send a lot of refrigerated containers of vials to African countries and they would get Africans vaccinated PDQ. There’s a continuing dust-up about whether the 1st world is “hoarding” vaccine, depriving the 3rd world, AKA Africa, of it. Moreover, herd immunity begins to tighten as large numbers have antibodies either from vaccinations or from natural infections. It appears to be that once new case counts per day get about 0.1% per day (3.0% per week, 36% per years), locals hunker down and do what it takes to keep from getting much worse, even getting themselves vaccinated. The Struggle to Vaccinate Springfield, MissouriĬOVID cases continue to rise, but many residents remain reluctant to get the vaccine.īut new cases in Springfield/Greene County have declined dramatically in recent weeks.
Meanwhile Northern states with high vaccination rates are reaching ideal outdoors weather with fewer mosquitos.įor example, Greene County, Missouri, home of county seat Springfield, was one of the first places to be slammed by the delta virus. Three day weekends can confuse analysis of trends, so the Delta surge wasn’t undeniable until a few days after Biden’s speech,Ĭonversely, by Friday September 10, it appears that the Delta Surge is fading nationally as southern states that were hit hard are running out of fresh meat and outside temperatures are dropping into the tolerable range. Just after the Labor Day weekend, two months laater, Biden announced mandatory vaccine mandates to fight the delta surge, just as the delta wave clearly began to recede. During the July 4th weekend, Joe Biden announced the good news that America is reopening, exactly at the moment the delta variant exploded from Missouri to much of the south.
