This is never going to end.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says it is currently monitoring a second mutated strain of coronavirus even more infectious than the one already gripping the UK after it was discovered in South Africa.
The new variant, which is feared to be driving a surge of infections among young people, is behind a powerful second wave of the virus in South Africa.
The strain, different from the one in Britain, appears to be more infectious than the original virus.
This is never going to end.

But did they die?
More contagious and less deadly seems like a natural progression.

There has been talk of new strains since the beginning. But I find it funny that right as the vaccine comes out, the talk of “new strains” is all of the sudden the biggest thing being pushed.

Yep, just like clockwork, the "new strain" arrives just as the vaccine starts rolling out.

New strains that are still susceptible to vaccine

It doesn't matter.
It's going to be yet another excuse as to why no restrictions will be lifted

But it mutates much like the flu shot. Which is an annual "vaccine" that varies between 80% to as low as 30% effectiveness.
I.E. not shite we can do so lets move on.

It’s not known if the vaccine will work on new strains, based on what I’m hearing.

But wait, there’s more! Now, even more infectious!
Mumbling voice under: the new strain of coronavirus has a 99.99% survival rate. Slight headaches and sinus congestion are common. Some with severe cases may even cough. For best results, put on your mask and lock yourself in your home alone until your governor tells you differently.
