You think it's stupid, I think it's poignant. The situation we're in now was all perfectly predictable. Bad science, bad models, and bad medicine from the jum

  My guess is that you couldn't be less qualified to make such an evaluation. The evolution of this pandemic has been something difficult to predict. The only certainty now is that vaccination is the key to moving on.

    Where I live it's less than 60% vaccination for adults. Most of the 3rd world is not vaccinated. Vaccinating the entire planet was never a solution to a respiratory virus that will mutate quickly. The vaccination campaign was always going to be a failure. > My guess is that you couldn't be less qualified to make such an evaluation. I'm as qualified as the president or any governor. I'm capable of understanding facts and making a decision like any other person on the planet.

      > The vaccination campaign was always going to be a failure. The vaccinated half of the population is faring much better than the unvaccinated half. How can you call that a failure? Getting to that state was the goal of the earlier protection measures.

        I don’t want to speak for the commenter, but I suspect they are talking about getting the US beyond a 70% vax rate goal and not the vaccine success against the virus. That rate was always going to be a tall order and was made all the more difficult by the politicization around the pandemic and the vaccine along with some of the serious bonehead moves in the last year by the CDC and Fauci. Basically the US gov made it easy for a couple of groups that were already distrustful of the government to justify their distrust.
