Jesus watching Ireland rocket up in these charts is some scary stuff. And given how much Ireland did right in the first few phases of COVID, it must be maddening to public health authorities. What changed? B117 transmissibility or other factors boosting infections?

FOLKS—if you think #COVID19 cases is really bad in the US, it is even more epically surging in the UK 🇬🇧 & Ireland 🇮🇪. I made a short video... and highlighted the simultaneous rise in the more contagious b117 variant. Denmark CDC thinks B117 will become dominant strain by Feb. 🧵
