Did you make it through Arwen alright? A serious storm, I see.
The difference in approach is significant. Looks like non vaccinated people will gradually be more and more restricted in where they can go over here. Tomorrow a sort of evening/night lockdown will take effect for everyone. Hospitals are being overwhelmed with new cases. Again. 70% at the ICU is not vaccinated. 1.2 million adults aren't vaccinated. Still very high potential for a horrible scenario. Doctors are warning for code black approaching rapidly. If that's a Dutch term: that's when doctors have to choose for who'm there'll be a bed in the ICU and for who'm not.
Other healthcare has been severely scaled down to accommodate the new COVID cases. Not everybody is going to survive that. People waiting for radiation, for instance. It's pretty bad.
I'm worried about the elderly and more vulnerable people. We're the lowest in Europe with boosters. Only 0,6% per 100 inhabitants. The other day I read a booster will most likely be coupled with the corona pass in the EU in the near future. No booster, no access. Won't happen for me any time soon. I'm the only one in my family who is vaccinated. Sisters and mother are anti vaxx. I'm worried about my mother and niece who has asthma. Mom has an auto immune disease and is 74. Everybody will contract COIVD soon or later.
