Experts have shed new light on a variant of COVID-19 discovered in a nursing home in Kentucky, which has infected at least 45 residents and health care staff. The strain has five mutations seen in other variants, plus many unique ones.
Many residents of the Kentucky nursing home were fully vaccinated, but the evolved virus was able to circumvent their anti-body protection.
An investigation by the Kentucky Department of Public Health revealed an unvaccinated, infected staff member initiated the outbreak in early March, resulting in the wave of infections.
An article published on Forbes written by William A. Haseltine, a former Harvard Medical School professor, reported that the new variant—named R.1—was first found in Japan. It has infected more than 10,000 people globally, according to GISAID SARS-CoV-2 database.
Haseltine warned that the new variant has additional mutations that could give it an advantage in transmission, replication and immune suppression.

So this unvaccinated murderer started this shite 6.5 months ago? Is one of the "unique" mutations that it's time released?

45 residents? Sure, I'll believe the numbers again. Just pick any number out of the sky.

We’ve got a large majority of our residents who had covid and are not vaccinated (not all are vax) and have not had one reinfecton. All but 2 resident cases were last early April through June.
And they’re ALL tested twice a week — residents and employees.
Several, OK MANY, employees positive since then. But not one res reinfected.
Will be interesting to see.

IF this thing is just going to do the FLU thing where every damned year it's some new version, then the entire exercise needs to be abandoned and "new normal" will be, "Flus are worse annually than they used to be".
We are all going to die of something. I don't know when we got this idea that avoiding death was something we did AT ALL COSTS
