In before "just in time for mid-terms" 
Buckle up...

"The risk that strains BA.4 and BA.5 pose “to global health is potentially greater than that of original BA.2,” said Dr. Kei Sato, the study’s lead author, per The Guardian.
“It looks as though these things are switching back to the more dangerous form of infection, so going lower down in the lung,” said Dr. Stephen Griffin, a virologist at the University of Leeds, per the report."

Good thing my lower lungs are filled with trained pit bulls cells to fend off any viruses.

We have a ton of people at my workplace that travel internationally. There has been a substantial uptick in positive cases for our traveling workforce.

Because one thing we know from virology is that the longer a virus exists, the more deadly it becomes to the host.

COVID surges and variants are like a weird form of advent for leftists. Breaking out the masks and virtue signaling about being “safe” is a beloved tradition.

maybe if we tank the economy and burn trillions in cash and spiral mental health in this country, we can save a life.

What happened to the Greek alphabet variants? We get to Xi and it’s all of a sudden ditched… kinda like the South African strain ended location based variant names.

They should make their own calendar for it.

Spleen and mmmbeer are taking the minivan to Sam’s Clib today to stock up on medical masks

From the article:
Whelp, that's all I needed to hear to not give a shite.

South Africa has already experienced the wave from the BA.4 and BA.5 variants, which turned out to be less deadly

Need to add "historic" so the hipsters will latch on to the story.

November elections coming up!

So there's a new strain that is a little different than the previous strain. That's what viruses do.
The better question for OP is why does OP think that the ordinary mutation of a virus is some sort of political conspiracy "just in time for mid-terms"?
Sorry, but that seems insane.

I don’t give a frick what anyone tells me, I’m going to just assume they’re gonna keep tweaking this thing til they get the results they want
This is absolute insanity… our government is trying to gain control of us by using a virus. And it’s working for a large portion of our country
