So here is my prediction. You are going to get Covid-19. Hopefully you are double-vaxxed and maybe even have had a booster or two. If you are, there’s a good chance that once you get Covid your symptoms are mild and you can avoid death…or the hospital…or at least stop the spread for a while.

If you’re an anti-vaxxer, you’re still helping with herd immunity. Once you get it, you develop some immunity. That adds to the count, as you’re part of the herd. The downside is that your chances for serious illness has multiplied if you get Covid. Good luck with that.

In a global pandemic, we’ve found ourselves in a pissing contest. As Canadians, we feel superior to Americans because a higher percentage of us are double-vaxxed. And people in B.C. feel superior to people from Alberta and Saskatchewan for the same reason. Feel better about yourself?

But it doesn’t really matter what we do, until the entire world reaches herd immunity. Because this is a GLOBAL phenomenon, not a local one. Not something we can throw money at and hope it goes away. Because we’re rich.

Let’s look into worldwide herd immunity on this…episode 49…of Middle Class Over…
