Expert says new coronavirus strain has no 'unusual ability to cause serious illness'
Ynet News ^ | 8/8/23 | Attila Somfalvi, Nir (Shoko) Cohen

The coronavirus pandemic fell out of the headlines many months ago, but in recent days it has returned: a new strain of the virus was discovered in Great Britain, and in New York a number of infections that had not been seen in a long time were reported.

"The new strain came from several countries, but it was located in the UK," Professor Cyrille Cohen, an expert on the immune system from Bar-Ilan University, told Ynet Live. "The name given to it is 'Eris', and it is a descendant of the strains that currently rule the world - the XBB. The very speed with which it is spreading in England is definitely disturbing, but I want to reassure and say that in terms of complications and the ability to cause serious illness, we do not see anything unusual here."

"On the other hand, reports are coming from New York about a 20% increase in the number of hospitalizations and a 50% increase in the number of infections. The truth is, we don't see the full picture, because there are no more testing stations all over the world. We live with the coronavirus, which is good, but occasionally there are outbreaks, and the question is how significant and difficult they will be. They can be estimated by the number of people admitted to hospitals," he said.

Gee, I thought the early versions caused a few million deaths.

I am sure Professor Cyrille Cohen will be rounded up and jailed for mis-information any minute.

In Canada he would get a 10+ year sentence for this shameful outburst as an enemy against the country.

Before COVID 19... coronaviruses were responsible for 20% or so of all colds....looks like we’re going back to that. Unless the evil researchers looking for man assisted viral mutants leak another dangerous one out. Then we can get more harmful gene therapy shots.
Maybe all the wine, or other alcoholic beverage drinking and cannabis, or antidepressives, or anxiolytic drug use is finally getting to the medical worker populations brains.

“We live with the coronavirus, which is good, but occasionally there are outbreaks, and the question is how significant and difficult they will be. They can be estimated by the number of people admited to hospitals,” he said.”

There is a Covid version in the N and E bay in this past week to 10 days.

One friend in her late 80’s and got hammered with a version of this covid. She was put on some oral meds and was isolated in her home for about a week.

Several of us bought groceries for she and he husband left them at the front door. As of yesterday, she did the recovery thing for about a day or so ago. Her husband, who is a barely walking basket case never had any symptoms.

My wife and I may have had that variant or a FLV. We had chills, GI issues and body aches that lasted about 10-12 daylight hours. I had it first, and then my wife got it.

We are okay and feeling good.

Fauci and Gates’ plans come to naught again.

But eventually they’ll come up with a virus that kills us all.

99 yr old cousin had her 3rd bout with “covid” over July 4th. She is fine now. I think all covid tests are positive if you have a cold, or anything else.

One interesting aspect of this is those among us who never got COVID. Myself, I never had COVID. I was out and about, no mask unless forced. No one in my house had it. In fact, only one member of my extended family of 10-12, only one person had COVID. My sone got it early and didn’t know except he couldn’t taste his coffee.

Seems somewhere along the way, my family had antibodies that knew something of coronaviruses. I can’t imagine we just got lucky.

“No one in my house had it. In fact, only one member of my extended family of 10-12, only one person had COVID. My sone got it early and didn’t know except he couldn’t taste his coffee.”

We have had the same question since the first Covid strain hit our SF area months before we knew what it was.

I got whacked and my wife of 60+ years might have had a headache and a runny nose, aka a cold or FLV.

The next summer one of our very healthy sons got whacked by the Delta version. He was out of commission for 2-3 weeks.
Yet his wife and two DNA adult college age children in his home never had even a summer cold.

During that time two of his male friends living 60 miles away, also got the Delta and again no one else in their families got sick.

That has been replicated by our female adult relatives across America. The husbands got sick, and their wives might have had a 12 hr FLV.

We both tested positive after Thanksgiving last year. I had the crud for about 3 days, and my wife had it for 2 days.

Recently, I had a 12 hour FLV or covid, and my wife had an 8 hour version.
