International Tiger Day (Taken at San Diego Zoo Safari Park 8.20.2020) |
I'm keeping it short today because email was kind of a nightmare and there's nothing here that you don't already know: the Delta variant is everywhere, the unvaccinated are getting hospitalized and dying, and more vaccinated people are seeing breakthroughs because of the high transmissibility of the Delta variant, which is said to be 1000x more than the Alpha variant. San Diego's numbers yesterday showed 10% of cases were breakthroughs, but it could be much higher because asymptomatic people may not be getting tested and San Diego's contact tracing and investigations have drastically decreased.
I'm kinda over it. I'm sick of holdouts and selfish fucks and people who can't get their shit together to get vaccinated. I'm sick of debating this when this was all preventable if we only looked at the data in India and UK and Australia. We knew it was coming, we celebrated independence from the virus, and now here we are. I'm going to the San Diego Zoo to clear my head.
Stay safe out there.
