Delta variant

Certainly hoping the delta variant doesn't see its way to Singapore..

Unfortunately, Covid gonna Covid; it's already come out with an upgraded version since Delta. Evidently, Delta Plus, at least in terms of infectiousness, is like Delta on steroids.

So long as it's circulating in people in serious numbers, the odds of the virus mutating into an ever more formidable opponent go up. It may not happen here or in Europe or in the US, but if it happens in Indonesia or Malaysia or Brazil, it would still affect the rest of the world negatively.

Vaxx numbers need to go up much faster everywhere.

Seems like a new strain or mutation emerges every couple months…
