Still, it will take them to 2022 to get to the 60% vaccinated level.

The scale of the vaccination effort worldwide has to be huge.

SARS-Cov-2 has proven to be nasty. Not as much as the earlier MERS, but still a pretty bad virus for humans.

What I fear is a new mutation that might bring back the MERS fears. In that variation of a coronavirus, the death rate was much higher.

The know-nothings who dismiss COVID-19 have not clue about the danger of having 7 billion incubators on the planet.

And even with a vaccine, it can still be spread (virons go in, then get blown back out, even if they don’t infect you). There’s going to be a whole bunch of people who think they’re safe and don’t have to do things like keep distant or wear masks.

While I am scheduled for my first vaccine Monday in Cheyenne, I’m truly fearful for my wife. (I have no idea about Illinois’s plans, so I don’t know if my mother can get one soon or not.)
