Europe is again experiencing near-record levels of coronavirus infections, and could experience half a million Covid-related deaths in the next three months, the World Health Organization said on Thursday.

Europe accounted for 59 percent of the world’s newly reported coronavirus cases last week, and for nearly half the world’s Covid-related deaths, Hans Kluge, the W.H.O.’s director for the 53 countries in its European region, told reporters.

Dr. Kluge said that there were 1.8 million new cases and about 24,000 deaths in the European region in the past week.

“We are at another critical point of pandemic resurgence,” Dr. Kluge said. “Europe is back at the epicenter of the pandemic — where we were one year ago.”

The region is reporting an average of more than 30 new cases a day for every 100,000 people, a rate that has almost doubled since mid-September. Eighteen of the 20 countries around the world that are reporting the most new cases per day, relative to their populations, are in Europe or the part of Central Asia that the W.H.O. includes in its European region.

New reported cases reached a record high in Germany on Wednesday, when the nation recorded 33,949 new infections in a 24-hour period. Only 67 percent of the country is fully vaccinated.

Covid-related deaths in Europe are also increasing. (...)

yeah..... so sad.....  

The CDC is reporting just under 3/4 of a million total COVID-19 deaths.  Some websites are reporting a higher number.  Some forecasts suggest that total deaths in the USA from the virus will soon reach 780,000.

Assume for the sake of discussion that total deaths reach close to or go over 1 million Americans in total sometime in the first half of 2022.   That is a salient number.   How will this play in the traditional media and social media?   

Will the hold outs start getting vaccines?  Will more Americans start taking seriously social measures to reduce the spread of the virus?  (Vaccine passports, masks and distancing in specific circumstances, etc.)

How will this play out politically?  Will the current polarization become even more accentuated?  Or will we observe a stronger social consensus on how to manage this pandemic?

Sure, there are many countries that have done just as bad or worse in coping with the pandemic than the USA.  I simply expect developments and the ensuing 'discussion' in the USA to have more influence on global attitudes and opinions than other countries.  Hence the questions.

The official global virus death toll has passed five million. The full count is undoubtedly higher.

From the US CDC, study indicates that vaccination is superior to having recovered from previous covid:

the adjusted odds of laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 among unvaccinated adults with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection were 5.49-fold higher than the odds among fully vaccinated recipients of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine who had no previous documented infection
