It took us about a month to get 7% of the US population inoculated with their first jab. The total USA population of Health Care Workers and 65+ people is about 27% of our total population so it follows that it will likely take another 3 months or so to get all of us vaccinated.
And of course much longer to protect the entire country and the world. Of course our vaccine production and administration will no doubt improve and become substantially faster over time.
We are all hoping that the virus does not mutate and become more deadly and/or resistant to the vaccine.
In the meantime keep doing what we did in 1918 and what we should be doing now.
Maintain social distance
Avoid Groups
Wear good Masks
Wash carefully
Keep your friends and social contacts
Exercise, eat healthy and avoid depression
Keep Sending Emails!
This Too Shall Pass
