    The driver for the variants is the number of unvaccinated people (and, alas, deer and perhaps other animal hosts), worldwide. Really: It can’t mutate without a host, so the only reasonable way to prevent mutation is to prevent infection.

    We were warned over a year ago that if covid 19 was allowed to persist, it could mutate into something more deadly. It was, and it did and who listens to scientists anyway, we’ve got Fox.

    Nothing is happening that science can’t explain. But that doesn’t compute with the “I am protected by the blood of the lamb” crowd.

    Repiratory viruses often mutate to forms more easily transmissible.

    They’re all transmitted by anti-vaxxers.

    Tis what the good Lord built..

    And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so. God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.

    That’s it. I am officially calling bullshit. Every single time we almost get back to normal a new variant just so happens to show up out of nowhere. When this all first started I took it seriously. I quarantined, I wore my mask, I stayed six feet away from others when in public, I even got vaccinated only to be told everything I did ended up not mattering at all. Then we found out that the virus not only leaked from a lab in Wuhan, but Fauci also funded the exact same lab. I’m done taking this seriously.

    Yes vaccinated people are getting Covid but at a much power rate. They also have milder cases and fewer hospitalizations. The few deaths among vaccinated people have mostly been among older people with other health issues.

    You’re right to be concerned about a variant that might eventually become deadlier and able to evade the vaccine. That’s why it’s important to gert as many people vaccinated as possible. Fewer hosts equal fewer incubators.

    Phizer, Moderna and J&J are continually working to make sure the vaccines are effecdtive. If and when they are no longer working they will need a new booster to combat the new variant.

    This is no different than what we face every year with the flu. You don’t get one shot that lasts forever. Each year a new shot is required that targets the strains that are circulating. This may be what we face with Covid. For some reason, the right has made Covid a political issue unlike the flu. If those same people didn’t get the flu shots we would have a higher number of cases every year.

    Until we stop just making Big Pharma rich and vaccinate the World covid will just keep mutating. They’ve made enough money, end patent protections. India could produce the vaccine for pennies on the dollar of what Pfizer charges.

    no-willie is still pulling BS out of his butt and getting “info” that sounds like it’s from podcasts and YouTube. Never posts a source and just posts rantings of the uninformed and cult followers.
