    From everything I can gather, the UK situation with this new variant is not good. Please avoid seeing other households indoors, wear face coverings, avoid crowded places and be extra cautious for the coming days. Ignore those who say it’s not a big deal & play it down.

        That is someone saying they did not have evidence on the 15th, and that evidence either way was generally thin at that time.

        So sorry you have to do this. It's a totally stupid, harmful charade.

        Do you think the vaccine will still work with the new variant?

        Not OP, but likely yes. mRNA vaccines cause your body to make antibodies against a bunch of different places, so one or even several changes in the spike protein likely will not cause an "escape." It is possible, but unlikely to happen so quickly. Estimates are 2-3 yrs lifespan.
