It’s yet another sign that while the official pandemic state may be over, the days of COVID are far from it.

    I heard that better vaccines are on the way. Is it worth laying low until we get something better or just keep saying fuck it like everyone else?

      The most recent update on next-generation COVID vaccines is a month ago, when they headed into clinical trials. It’s exciting, but they will absolutely not be available to the public before 2024. Getting the 2023 COVID vaccine now is your best option, you will still be able to receive a next-generation vaccine once one is available.

        Oh I’ll take any jab I can get, no questions there. I’m just wondering for people who are more vulnerable if it’s worth continuing to be a hermit or not.

      The new shots that just got approved should work against everything floating around at the moment.
