Do they think they can really ignore the increasing scientific evidence that post infection immunity is CLEARLY SUPERIOR (if riskier to acquire) than COVID vaccine induced immunity and then hope to convince people they are following the science?
What people overlook is that pols are going to reap the benefit of natural immunity regardless of whether they issue immunity passports.. So they may as well try to maximize vaccination which will only improve the stats they worry about.

We'll see. I'm frankly surprised the economy is doing as well as it is now, somehow they made it this far. I was starting to wonder pre-covid if the traditional seven-year economic cycle model had been broken, now I'm convinced (there's probably still a cycle, just don't know what it is yet).
