Letters April 24: Easy to blame Conservatives for the COVID-19 situation


Glenn Krause
(Double Mutant Variant, coming soon to theatres– wait, no, strike that. Movie theatres here aren’t open yet.)
BLUE HOO!
Who’d have thunk it! That Doug Ford, the guy who ran on the platform of “a buck a beer” in Ontario, and Jason Kenney, the guy who claimed he lived in his mother’s basement in a retirement residence “that did not allow subletting,” would not be capable of leading their provinces through the most complicated crisis of our lifetimes!
KEN TARABULA
(And everyone else is doing such a bang-up job, right? It’s easy to pick on Conservatives but maybe aim a little higher in the blame game.)

April is shaping up to be Brazil’s darkest month yet in the pandemic, with hospitals struggling with a crush of patients, deaths on track for record highs and few signs of a reprieve from a troubled vaccination program in Latin America’s largest nation.
The Health Ministry has cut its outlook for vaccine supplies in April three times already, to half their initial level, and the country’s two biggest laboratories are facing supply constraints.

Medical Experts Concerned 'Double Mutant' COVID-19 Variant is Spreading Rapidly – NBC Bay Area


"It was a bit surprising that it was already here," he said.
The new variant is responsible for a surge in coronavirus cases in a a region of India that includes Mumbai, and experts are worried the variant is spreading rapidly setting up an increasingly urgent race between variants and vaccines.
"The vaccines may be slightly less effective in preventing moderate disease or moderate illness with this particular variant," Dr. Pinsky said, "but the vaccines are still very effective and people should get vaccinated as soon as possible."
UCSF Doctor Peter Chin-Hong says the variant contains one mutation identical to the West Coast variant and a second one similar to variants first found in Brazil and South Africa.
