    Convergent evolution is trending! Huh! It's @trvrb on @FaceTheNation! Look at this really important point he makes. All our worrying variants have occurred in places with raging epidemics. Vaccinating widely—globally—as fast as possible (and planing for boosters) is crucial.https://twitter.com/trvrb/status/1355205679821291525 …

    Because the prevalence of the virus is so important to this equation, I'm convinced that vaccinating heavily will be much better than letting the virus continue to spread to curb evolution. Vaccination creates immune pressure but doesn't create onward infections. 2/2

        Just ask “5 why’s” and it rings you back to mitigation 101.

        Hope the world can keep up with the “Bolsonaro variants.” Scientists have identified NINE new versions of the virus in Brazil, a sign of the the country’s disastrous coronavirus response.https://g1.globo.com/se/sergipe/noticia/2021/01/28/sete-linhagens-diferentes-do-novo-coronavirus-sao-encontradas-em-amostras-de-pacientes-infectados-de-sergipe-diz-lacen.ghtml …

        Sure. And also note that the biggest disruptor (the S African strain) comes from the country with the largest concentrated population of HIV patients. Doubt that is a coincidence, but not clear what to do about it.
