This is going to slowly spread everywhere because the west is hoarding vaccines and won’t create a vaccination effort in Africa / DRC. It has already become more virulent with this new clade and will in all likelihood take another step function up in contagiousness based on how it’s spreading in DRC alone. Once it becomes slightly more infectious (like improved spreading via surfaces), all bets are off on not closing at least some schools in the US - good luck getting elementary kids to not touch each other and trusting parents to take time off in this shitty forced-work economy to have the kids sick at home.
well this will surely help the antivaxx crisis
the antivax movement originated from a vaccine companies skullduggery backfiring. the industry has learned nothing.
