Just 3 weeks ago there were only 2 counties in Indiana that were in the yellow, all the rest were blue. Just look at it now. Sigh. People seemed to have quit wearing masks around here about a month ago, and it shows.

... like in Ontario, Canada, the B1117 variant is spreading like wildfire thought out the USA at a time when people are dropping their guard against protecting themselves while politicians are making bad decisions that are popular with their constituents but not based on medical advice.

I expect there will be more variants that mutate, citizens will have to get re-vaccinated a year from now (a booster shot like the common flu, maybe not free) and we will all be advised to wear masks for years into the future.

I am glad to hear that Nebraska is doing better during the COVID-19 pandemic averaging 472 new infections/ 16 deaths per day.

Nebraska

Total cases 213,000 +472

Recovered -

Deaths 2,307 +16

Now is not the time to back off on public safety measure to ensure it stays that way.

Moderna may be able to provide booster shots for protection against COVID-19 variants by the end of the year.

Reuters reports Moderna's Chief Medical Officer Tal Zaks on Wednesday said the company should be able to supply booster shots by the end of 2021, adding that testing shows the boosters provide a confident level of protection against coronavirus variants.

The National Institutes of Health began testing a booster shot from Moderna against a variant first found in South Africa that has given scientists some cause for concern compared with other strains.

The variant, B.1.351, appears to be more contagious than previous strains and could possibly evade some of the protections generated by therapeutics and vaccines, although preliminary evidence has shown current vaccines provide an adequate degree of protection against variants.

"Out of an abundance of caution, NIAID has continued its partnership with Moderna to evaluate this variant vaccine candidate should there be a need for an updated vaccine," Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), said last week.

Meanwhile, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the variant of coronavirus that originated in the United Kingdom, the B.1.1.7 variant, has become the dominant strain in the U.S. Experts believe the variant is more contagious and could be more deadly, but all three vaccines authorized in the U.S., including Moderna's, have shown to work effectively against the strain.
