BA.2 has been around for a couple of months now. Keep in mind that it isn't a new variant of Covid, but a variant of Omicron. Meaning that most who contracted Omicron previously will have immunity from from BA.2 as well as immunity from all previous covid variants.Here we go again? Mask and mandates return or nothing but hype to keep us afraid? I’m thinking hype.
“A new strain of omicron coronavirus, believed to be among the most infectious diseases known to mankind, is predicted to causeanother nationwide surgei of cases during autumn.”
New omicron variant is one of the most infectious diseases ever known
Authorities prepare for another wave of cases, but two new studies are suggesting vaccines and therapeutics are effective against the highly contagious BA.2 variant.www.afr.com
Seems reasonable to me. I expect fear mongering on this though. A fearful population is easier to control.BA.2 has been around for a couple of months now.

And there it is. Didn’t take long did it.keep wearing a mask in public spaces.
You believe the science behind the identification and statistics on the new COVID strain is "hype"?
You do realize how silly that sounds?
one of the most infectious diseases ever known
Hype meant to keep us afraid.
This way, we know who the idiots are.And there it is. Didn’t take long did it.
The new variant very well may be, or maybe not. Time will tellone of the most infectious diseases ever known

I knew about this a couple of months ago as it was found in NY and was all over our local news:Here we go again? Mask and mandates return or nothing but hype to keep us afraid? I’m thinking hype.

It’s hype becauseHow did you determine it's hype and not just fact?
How did you determine it was designed to make you afraid, and not designed to inform?
Why are you scared?
It’s hype because
“Measles is so contagious that if one person has it, up to 90% of the people close to that person who are not immune will also become infected.”
Take that Covid. lol

There may be a time for alarm over a new variant but this isn’t it. While it’s more contagious it’s also about as virulent as the original omicron from what I read. So many people have already had the sister variant that it’s unlikely to gain a strong foothold. Also, multivalent covid vaccines should hopefully be available by the fall providing additional protection.Seems reasonable to me. I expect fear mongering on this though. A fearful population is easier to control.
My threads/post are of the highest caliber and someday someone will compile them into book form. This book will sit on library shelves next to Socrates, Aristotle and Plato. I honor you with my very presence. Bow in the presence of greatness.And how does that refute anything or change anything? It doesn't. Why are you threads/posts so low quality?
Heartens me to see this reaction among those who have formerly been afflicted with Covid hysteria.There may be a time for alarm over a new variant but this isn’t it.

A signed first addition copy will sit on the shelves of the George W. Bush presidential library - right next to a copy of The Pet Goat.My threads/post are of the highest caliber and someday someone will compile them into book form.

So just because measles is highly contagious means it has an exclusive on being contagious?It’s hype because

Other variants (like delta) warranted more concern.Heartens me to see this reaction among those who have formerly been afflicted with Covid hysteria.
