I haven't the foggiest, I'm just pointing out the need for continued vigilance. I agree with the sense of things being ok, because I live isolated, and the things I do in my quest for gold are done electronically, and I am vaccinated. But my trust in the vaccines was the same as the initial efficacy predictions. Even then I didn't like the idea of being one of the 5 out of 100 that could still be screwed. And now with the Delta variant suggesting that covid will overcome the vaccines entirely..
All I was doing was pointing out that Puna, statistically, if all other things are equal, has a higher rate of infected people running around than elsewhere. And, note, I am making that broad conclusion based on the low vaccination rates. Which, when added to the transmissibility of the Delta variant makes Puna, imo, a dangerous place, especially for the unvaccinated.
They say if people are not vaccinated it can be assumed they will catch the Delta variant. It's that infectious. Period. With a less than 35% vaccination rate in parts of Puna that is a lot of people who are, right now, getting infected. As I said, I think it's a war zone out there. The humbug, the real humbug, because for the unvaxx'd their suffering is self inflected, is the fact a lot of innocent children are in the lurch, and this is a massive breeding ground for more variants.
Yeah, what protections? 'tis a shame lamb's blood won't work this time, isn't it?
