Alright, since I'm still seeing lots of people being rather blasé about this: it's past time in most countries to actually start distancing yourselves. Reducing contact still helps if it's not practical to isolate yourself. You will likely be fine, but do it for the sake of the vulnerable - the elderly, those with lung problems, and those who will need medical care for other conditions when this explodes near you (and it will). Help slow this down.

    Why I did this

    I am not an expert on Covid, viruses, or vaccines, but I am a scientist with relevant training. I believe we have a responsibility to clearly communicate science to the public, especially in emergencies. So in March 2020, I started to write summaries of Covid developments on facebook and email them to friends and family, to help them understand the situation as it unfolded. This is an archive of those posts (created much later).

    I also tracked the spread of alarming Covid variants for a few months at http://covidvarianttracking.com/ and mapped the consequences of faster variant spreading at https://tabsoft.co/2YwHCmZ.
