Covid

 Stop me if you've heard this one before.

Country declares things are getting better, opens everything up, encourages mingling, just as a new worrying covid variant pops up.

Today it was declared that half of all covid cases in London are now the Indian variant which has been noted to be much more transmissible and the WHO announced today it was a variant of "global concern".

It was also noted that from 17th May mingling fun would return in the UK.

Is it just me ? Is this rocket science ?

I think we're due an Autumn - if not Summer - of raging covid. And this time it will spread through a vaccinated population and mutate into something that gets around it. It's how evolution works. Survival of the fittest. It's the same principle as to why fewer and fewer antibiotics work. And if you give the nasties a chance to survive and adapt, the antibiotic in question quickly becomes useless. Do we learn ? No. We do not.

In my estimation the coming months are likely to be one of the most dangerous covid periods for the UK, because of a general complacency, the government over eager to return to normal - let the bodies pile up - and even the media getting in on the whole, phew its over, what a relief.

It aint over.
