quote:

The latest subvariant of the novel coronavirus to become dominant in Europe, the United States, and other places is also, in many ways, the worst so far.

The BA.5 subvariant of the basic Omicron variant appears to be more contagious than any previous form of the virus. It’s apparently better at dodging our antibodies, too—meaning it might be more likely to cause breakthrough and repeat infections.

Vaccines and boosters are still the best defense. There are even Omicron-specific booster jabs in development that, in coming months, could make the best vaccines more effective against BA.5 and its genetic cousins.

Still, BA.5’s ongoing romp across half the planet is a strong reminder that the COVID pandemic isn’t over. “We’re not done yet, by any stretch,” Eric Topol, founder and director of the Scripps Research Translational Institute in California, wrote on his Substack.

80-90% of the comments are shredding the article. That gives me some faith.

Yeah, I posted a similar article a couple of weeks ago. I was hesitant to post this, but the ninja angle is new and the Beast decided to pick it up, so I couldn't resist.

Lord have mercy ... the DemoRats and corrupt MSM will be all over this like white on rice. It's the perfect excuse for them to lie, cheat and steal this Nov.

I have Covid right now. Had 103 temp for almost a week before the fever finally broke yesterday. This shite sucks.

I’d rather have it 1000 more times than be forced to wear a mask again.

So it’s not really dangerous. It’s just more transmittable? This is dumb.
