The situation in India is dire and all variants associated with a surge need attention. But this man is 88 years-old, diabetic, two prior heart surgeries, and still had only mild symptoms (mild fever was reported) and is hospitalized out of caution likely because he is former PM.https://twitter.com/GabrielScally/status/1384452978086596616 …

i think there *is* urgency around their crisis. I totally agree that whether variant caused or not, the situation is horrifying.

But what are we doing? I'm going to get back to writing about all this soon but to me it's like Brazil: there are some news reports (valuable) but no global action (I get the problems with leadership issue, especially since I'm from Turkey). Still, what's our response? Tragedy.

there is absolutely an urgency around the crisis. I get literally dozens of emails/DMS/whatsapp panicked messages about this every day. one article about a former prez being sick after two doses doesn't negate that -- it would get covered here, too
-
and whether vaccine breakthrough is the enter of the crisis or not, it is adding to the panic/urgency, because most people are unvaccinated, and those who have been have mostly had one. so when they hear that even the vaccine may not be protective, it is terrifying
