In the US here. It's chaos. More people are dying of COVID every single day than on 9/11. Many are anti-vax. The few who do want vaccines cannot get it. The supply of second doses the government claimed to have was a lie. The states are begging for help and the government won't help. The stimulus check has been delayed for months. People refuse to wear masks because it's been made into a political issue. A large portion of the government and many people were exposed to COVID due to the insurrection attempt on the sixth. Hospitals are full and turning people away. If you go to the hospital with something other than COVID you may get it due to the lack of PPE.

Well as far as the vaccine goes, I went yesterday to get tested for the antibodies. I have them so I feel like getting the vaccine at this point would be redundant and a waste when it could be used for someone else who doesn't have the antibodies and might react badly to getting covid. I had no symptoms at all and only got tested for covid because my mom tested positive. Otherwise, I would have gone on my merry way with no idea I could make people around me sick. But unless I come across one of the mutated strains and the antibodies that I have aren't effective, I don't think I'll get it again. Don't worry, I am still wearing a mask and following all the precautions, I'm just not overly concerned that I am going to catch anything at this point.
TBH coming from lockdown 3.0, I am amazed how much stuff is still open and operating in the US. Nightclubs haven't been allowed to open here since last march....In our area a recent poll said 82% supported the lockdown measures. Certainly in our ward people all seem to be complying with rules about distancing, masks, etc.

Would be cool if I already had the antibodies because I was in contact with a coworker who tested positive but blood drawing...no thanks.
We remain at Level 1 - Prepare.Things are 90% normal. If you have a cold or are unwell you have to wear a mask but that's it. We must scan into the covid tracker everytime we enter somewhere new.
