That's a good point, however threads do tend to help with keeping things organized when in a channel.

It actually might be a good thing that everyone doesn't feel the need to look at slack every X minutes.

Thanks! If the vaccine can get ahead of the new variant, then we should be ok. I wonder how long testing would need to happen before they can know for certain.

“This is cause for concern but not alarm,” the federal scientist said of the arrival of the variant in the United States, noting that there is no evidence it causes more severe infection. But the scientist added that the United Kingdom variant, as well as one spreading rapidly in South Africa, “appear to be more transmissible, meaning they can move rapidly through a population of people. And this is one more reason to do everything you can to prevent infection and its spread.”

How likely will this spread like wild-fire across the US? How will we know if the current vaccine can work against this variant?

It's a good question. How can the GOP benefit from blocking the additional money ($2k checks) to millions of Americans who are hurting so badly.

My only response is that the majority leader of the GOP would rather use the money towards something else; military, large corporations, etc. I've heard claims that they (majority of the GOP) believe that adding the money into the economy would create more debt. At this rate, it would help in the long term.

It's also a strange game and terrible feud that they are playing and stringing along households and small businesses.

He's trying to stick it to them for not continuing to support him through his many election lawsuits.

NEVs will be the future. It's only now beginning to take off.

What about the unknown of long term affects for people under 60?

Very high chances, even if you don't have symptoms you could be asymptomatic and be a carrier for other people.
