Covid-19: The “Mu Variant” Has Been Eradicated From US, Data Show
Nation and State ^ | 09/29/2021 | Tyler Durden

Looks like Dr. Anthony Fauci may have been right about something (for once).

Scientists are saying that the "Mu" variant - also known as variant B.1.62 - which once sparked fears of igniting yet another wave of "breakthrough" infections has already been "eradicated" within the US. According to the most recent data on on the virus-tracking website Outbreak.info, Mu-related infections are accounting for 0% of new infections in the US.

Previously, the "Mu" strain had been found in nearly every US state. The variant peaked back in June when it accounted for just 3% of all new cases.

The strain was first detected in Colombia back in January. Since then, it has been detected in at least 40 countries.

As of Sept. 26, some 8,557 cases of Mu have been detected since it was first seen, the website said.

For those who haven't been following the whole "Mu" variant situation, the WHO and CDC have three categories of COVID variants that make up their watch lists: variants of interest, variants of concern—which includes Alpha, Beta, Delta and Gamma—and variants of high consequence.

The WHO officially labeled the Mu variant a "variant of interest" on Aug. 30, which was around the peak of the "Mu" hysteria. The variant has genetic differences to the other known variants and is causing infections in multiple countries, meaning it might present a particular threat to public health.

The news comes as researchers in a Japanese study released on Monday showed that the Pfizer jab seems to offer "adequate" (76% effective) protection against Mu.

How do they even know this crap when PCR tests are not accurate?

Probably not interesting enough to have a thread about it.

Hard to believe but some poor souls seem not to have heard of genomic sequencing.

Bingo...and they do not differentiate or identify precisely what is the source of the "viral load".

He#, they can't tell/won't tell/mayn't tell if you have the dreaded Delta variant.

Hospitals and Doctor offices are using the WORTHLESS PCR test for this bogus virus.......NOT genomic sequencing.

They don’t. Like most of the crappola on the WuhanFlu it is made up. Need a new news cycle? OK, here is another Greek letter you can assign to some imagined horror. Run with it. By the time anyone “circles back” to ask for evidence, reboot the next news cycle.

And where did that lambda go? Rumor has it that the WuFlu focus group thought it sounded to ‘cuddly’ so it had to be taken out of the suite.

I suppose next there will be a “cluck” variant followed by a “caw” variant.

They are attempting to hold onto the power they grabbed by just keep hyping every “variant” that comes along. They want us shut down, shut up, and masked forever.

Heard of it, yes. Believe they're using it, no.

Nor even differentiate between a virus and a grapefruit.
