A couple of players will be absent tonight, including Cabango. It has been reported unofficially. |  |

Viruses mutate over time whether we make vaccines or not, same as the common cold and flu does every year. It's not like the virus is intelligently analysing our specific vaccines and working out how to beat them, becoming stronger as a result - having a vaccinated population means you deny all the strains that can't overcome the vaccines the ability to spread easily, so strains that can overcome them will run more rampant by comparison.
We'll see fewer strains and mutations by denying as many strains as possible and keeping the number of infected people as small as we can, not by holding off on vaccinating people. I don't think anyone will be surprised if annual "boosters" for vulnerable people become the norm just like with the flu. The content of the flu shots differs every year based on what boffins decide will be the most common strains going around.
Interesting that post-match Martin says we lost Naughton and Bennett to covid when previously the story had been knocks and injuries. |
“ It's not like the virus is intelligently analysing our specific vaccines and working out how to beat them”
Apparently this one will - just like the different strains of flu have to use different immunization. |  |
