COVID cases spike 55% in New York, doctors fear ‘frightening’ new variants

In May, the COVID-19 emergency was officially declared over — but the coronavirus remains a significant threat, according to an increasingly concerned medical community.
The latest data from the New York state Department of Health, released Aug. 2, shows that COVID cases spiked by 55% since the prior week, with an average of 824 reported cases per day across the state.
And hospital admissions for the disease increased by 22% compared to the previous week, which translates to more than 100 admissions a day.
Meanwhile, a new variant — dubbed EG.5, or eris — has arisen as the dominant strain, causing about 17% of COVID cases nationwide, according to a new alert from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
As new variants continue to appear, health experts are concerned that we’re not prepared — especially for a worst-case scenario.
“The most frightening thing is if the virus was more deadly,” Anna Bershteyn, assistant professor in the Department of Population Health at NYU’s medical school, told The Post.
Is the OT concerned about these new variants?

I’ve been masking up my wife’s son every morning for his orientation. I’m hesitant to send him to school for the rest of this week but Friday is “dress like your hero” day and he’s going as Megan Rapinoe.

Just in time for the 2024 elections to start ramp up.

The Yankees and West Coast Avocado heads certainly like a good variant scare.
They really are an odd bunch.
It would seem to be a better use of time and resources for the people of NY to worry more about getting killed, raped, robbed or inundated with illegal immigrants, and generally walking in filth.
Same goes for San Fransisco residents.
Piss on them all.

I'm going out in a limb and predicting a new outbreak every four years.

Interestingly enough, my wife and I have gotten phone calls from 2 of our friends/relatives to let us know they have tested positive in the past 2 weeks. We dosed up on C, D, and Zinc, but that's pretty much all we did two years ago, too.

So you're telling me it isn't deadly but if it was, that would be scary.
