COVID-19 mutation may be evolving to bypass mask-wearing, hand-washing

A new COVID-19 mutation appears to be even more contagious, according to a study — and experts say it could be a response by the virus to defeat masks and other social-distancing efforts. Scientists in a paper published Wednesday identified a new strain of the virus, which accounted for 99.9 percent of cases during the second wave in the Houston, Texas, area, the washington Post reported.

That ChiCom pandemic hoax virus sure is smart!

Perfect when it comes to CV19,

Or, does this just shows how deadly, no diabolical, this virus is. It can sense a Trump rally or wedding, church service and infect everyone there at. But it has been mutated to have a PC gene that allows it to be “woke” so as not to infect a BLM protestor. Yes, diabolical.

Maybe it’s related to the intelligent virus Dr Who runs into several centuries from now. (courtesy of wally_bert!)

its not like a virus has a mind and thinking all of this diabolic stuff up..

Maybe we should all kill ourselves now so we don’t get it?

No, only the Karens, elite liberals and the dumb liberals should kill themselves!

We went to that seafood chain restaurant that poor people think is really fancy.

There were signs everywhere demanding that we wear masks and had to have them on before entering. Yknow, the whole posted threat thing.

Waiting area and bar papered with signs like it was a new trend in interior decorating.

Hostess threats that we will be kicked out if we dont wear a mask going to the bathroom.

Party of 14-ish taken to a back room where we all sit shoulder to shoulder surrounded by booths full of unmasked people eating, coughing, laughing, and having conversations. Despite all this, here we dont need a mask.

Somehow here we were safe. We werent all drinking. We werent all eating. Those that were werent eating the same things. There had to be a common denominator for all of us that made us safe even though we sat in the chamber of the reapers breath.

Then it dawned on me, “TABLES! COOTIES ARE AFRAID OF TABLES!”

The only way for all of us to get out of this pandemic safely is if we begin carrying small tables around with us at all times. It could become a new fashion accessory that saves us from this plague.

A little table on the top of a cane to lean on and look cool while we dodge cooties. A little table that could hold our drink, with little singles racks like a personal bar, for when we go to parties. A convenient little desk table with a pen to sign your life away before taking the vaccine.

Tables are the answer, people!

It’s not “evolving to bypass.” Virus that mutated to infect with fewer virions is being transmitted more. That’s all. The random mutation changed a spike protein. Less viral load is required to get someone infected. It has nothing to do with masks in particular, but it does increase all transmissions.

In other words, the game just became more complicated for everyone.

Have you seen the recent survival rate stats in the US from the CDC? Even those over 70 have a greater than 94% rate of survival. Granted HCQ and zinc are probably getting prescribed a lot more these days.

It's EVERYWHERE!... You'll NEVER ESCAPE IT! (That's what they want you to believe)

Washington Post reported? I smell BS.

I think you're right... in fact, I KNOW you're right!
