She ends by saying:
"There is a general sense of deja vu. Vaccines are a hot topic again: an updated version is expected to roll out in mid-September in the US. How many people will actually get that jab, however, is unclear. In the UK, it will be available only to those over 65, select vulnerable groups and frontline health and social care workers. In the US, it will be available to everyone but, unlike previous vaccines, it won’t automatically be free and costs will vary according to your health insurance status. A lot of people will probably not get a booster.
"I know this is an evolving situation, and we are all still figuring out this virus, but a little clear guidance from the governments on either side of the Atlantic would be nice. 'The pandemic is over,' Joe Biden declared during a television interview last September, so how come the World Health Organization still views it as a 'global health risk'? This is its current status, having been downgraded in May from a 'public health emergency'. Covid is still here, and will be for a very long time. Yet it seems we are just being told to keep coughing and carry on.'"
It's because of the lack of real messaging. Instead we hear that it's just a cold; that this is an uptick, not a surge; and that people will not comply with any mask mandates. So we're at a big disadvantage already, and it's "you do you" all over again, with disgraceful results like this:
"1 in 4 nursing homes in NJ report outbreak as COVID-19 cases slowly rise again".
"As COVID-19 cases slowly rise in New Jersey and across the country, one in four nursing homes and assisted living facilities in the state have reported outbreaks in the past week. State Department of Health data. But since neither Governor Murphy’s administration nor the Biden administration have released recent policy changes, don’t expect a return to lockdowns or other draconian measures from the early days of the pandemic."
No, just let the elderly residents die instead.
