Grim news, but not unexpected. Vaccines are not going to save us—at least not in the near future. We need to figure out how to live with the virus without losing our minds.https://twitter.com/joshnathankazis/status/1353808841931108353 …

The article doesn't make sense, though. Merck, yeah, that sucks but the Moderna news isn't grim whatsoever and in reality, the vaccines we do have are unexpectedly huge home runs.

His (negative) focus is on the difficulties of the rollout. That too many improve but at this stage, it's a huge stumbling block in spite of the relatively good news around Moderna, so I do feel like it's quite warranted even if having working vaccines is great.

Maybe we are feeling this more here in Canada where .... at least in Quebec vaccine rollout has really not happened. We are feeling the crunch and as new variants pop up the risk feels very real.

Yes. Very grim feeling around here these days. The light at the end of the tunnel is getting dimmer.

Yeah, but that's the opposite of reality. Tunnel difficult, light at the end keeps getting brighter and better.
