I'm not sure if being led around by the nose is the same as herd mentality or not, but I agree with you!

There are too many "vax deniers" that will NEVER get the shots and they'll keep creating mutations of this virus.

As the virus mutates the vaccines will become less effective and will have to be readjusted and given each fall. There will be a number of people who haven't taken any vaccine who will get infected. This resemble our regular flu outbreaks in the fall and winter from now on..

Prices were up 5% in May compared to last year as the cost of many goods keeps rising. The rise in gas prices is one of the most noticeable signs of inflation.

The price rise in building materials has caused me to put off building a new house. When your on a fixed income higher prices effects your purchasing ability.

The price increases are not across the board, so their impact is felt differently depending on what consumers purchase.

The items that have gone up the most have not been things I needed yet, but I feel for my friends and neighbors who are being affected.
