Chile, a country of 19 million on the Pacific coast of South America, had gotten a head start on vaccines by making agreements with pharmaceutical companies only months into the pandemic. By the beginning of this year, Chile had reached one of the highest vaccination rates in the world, while other countries in the region had yet to get any vaccines.

 

As of Wednesday, Chile had a vaccination rate of 38.94 per 100 people, 3rd highest on planet.

Yet the pandemic has hardly abated. Last week, Chile broke records on its number of daily cases since the start of the pandemic on two consecutive days: 8,195 new Covid-19 cases on Thursday and 9,171 on Friday. And even though the number of new cases diagnose per day has fallen this week, the reality is that a spike that began in December has continued steadily in Chile.
As of Wednesday, Chile was approaching 1.1 million total Covid-19 cases. Nearly 25,000 people had died of the disease, according to data from Johns Hopkins University. What went wrong?
 

The experience of the UK, Israel and now the US is very similar - a spike in cases just as vaccinations surge, right now in the US the states with the highest vaccination rates seem to have the biggest bump in cases - the NE, MN, etc, while states like Ark, Miss, ala who have low vaccination rates have stable cases. the good news is the initial dose vaccination rate will now start dropping rapidly, hopefully cases will follow in the next couple weeks.

I don't follow what's happening super closely, but whatever Israel has done has resulted in the whole country going back to normal while the U.S. continues to stumble...

They were ahead of us by a good month- 6 weeks on vaccinating, they've also done a higher % than us. We're not stumbling, things are looking up - even this latest mini surge up north has now peaked and is headed down.

After announcing the mandate would end, the governor urged Granite Staters to continue to wear masks while out in public because the virus is continuing to spread and hospitalizations are rising.

It's hard for them to let go, just imagine when they try to take bidens mask away from him? i just saw him in the white house meeting the jap leader - he's wearing 2 masks.
