Chile shuts capital Santiago once more as vaccines fail to quell rampant cases | Reuters
Chile has one of the world's highest vaccination rates. Around 75% of its 15 million residents have already received at least one dose of vaccine, and nearly 58% are completely inoculated. On a per capita basis among larger countries, it the vaccination leader in the Americas and the fifth highest worldwide, according to Reuters data.
It has used nearly 23 million vaccines doses so far - 17.2 million of Sinovac's (SVA.O), 4.6 million of Pfizer (PFE.N)/BioNTech's (22UAy.DE), and less than 1 million each of AstraZeneca's and CanSino's. (6185.HK)
Vaccines are not 100% effective, medical experts pointed out, and there is a time lag before they reach their highest efficacy. Also driving the fierce second wave is lockdown fatigue and the appearance of more contagious variants.
Of 7,716 people confirmed as infected with COVID-19 between Wednesday and Thursday, 73% had not been fully inoculated and 74% were under 49 years old, the health ministry said.
Dr. Cesar Cortes, emergency physician at the University of Chile hospital, said people who stayed home last year were now more afraid of being without work.
Without its vaccines, Chile would be far worse off, he said.Last edited by Monseratto; June 20th, 2021 at 10:56 PM.

June 20th, 2021 11:07 PM #28143Delhi, a megacity of 20 million people, saw horrendous scenes in April and May when coronavirus cases went through the roof, as they did across the country.
Crematoriums ran out of space, burning bodies day and night, as gasping patients died outside hospitals, unable to get beds, oxygen and drugs.
India's death toll more than doubled to more than 330,000, according to official figures. Many experts suspect the true toll is over a million.
The surge was blamed on new virus variants but also on the government having allowed massive religious festivals, state elections and crowds at cricket matches.
Now, the surge is over and Indian authorities are loosening lockdowns, letting people work and shop again.
'Explosion'
On some days in Delhi now, there are no funerals for COVID-19 victims, down from 700 a day during the recent peak.
Sandeep Budhiraja, medical director at Max Healthcare in the capital, said he was surprised at people's short memories.
"People are just behaving as if nothing happened just about two, three weeks back. And this is... amazing," Budhiraja told AFP.
But while this will likely lead to a sharp rise in cases, for a new "explosion" a new virus variant would have to take hold, he said.
A new variant, "Delta-plus", has been identified, which appears more transmissible and more resistant to treatment, he added.

Just have to ask this is the 1st dose and 2nd dose sinovac same ingredients inside? Or are they different? I mean if they are different then handling should be careful as to not have mistaken the 2nd dose from 1st dose vaccine.

There's a lot to consider before going on a first date with someone you've met online. Do they seem nice? Funny? Will they understand my Rick and Morty references? Approve of my collection of weird socks? As coronavirus restrictions continue to ease, the bar has inched up.
Dating app Bumble surveyed roughly 1,000 Americans in May, and 30% of them said they wouldn't go on a date or have *** with someone who hadn't received the COVID-19 vaccine. So if you've skipped the shot so far, it could cost you a first date.
Bumble, which also offers ways to meet friends and professionally network on its app, was founded by Whitney Wolfe Herd in 2014. When Bumble Inc. went public in February of this year, Herd became the youngest self-made woman billionaire, according to Forbes. Bumble's main point of difference? When two daters swipe right on Bumble, women are required to message first.
Along with other large US dating apps such as Tinder, Hinge, Match, OkCupid, BLK, Chispa, Plenty of Fish, and Badoo, Bumble is implementing new features to encourage people to get vaccinated. A "Vaccinated" badge, for example, launching this summer, will allow Bumble's US and UK users to indicate that they've received the vaccine on their profile.Last edited by tsupermario; June 21st, 2021 at 07:46 AM.
