Any sense for vaccine effectiveness against this strain? I didn’t catch that info in your article. Thx!

Vaccines appear to work fine against B.1.1.7. It’s dominant in Israel, for example, and yet they have been seeing big declines in cases in older vaccinated people.

What could possibly go wrong? Hey... we should lift restrictions (CA), cancel mask mandates (WI), and send all the kids back to school like normal (USA)... sounds like the best course of action... said no scientist ever. But hey... let’s not listen to science... again.

Even scientists participate in the cacophony. I've seen some question masks; return to schools is also advocated by quite a few. It's part of the problem and in our free country everyone winds up deciding for themselves.
