This New ‘Ninja’ COVID Variant Is the Most Dangerous One Yet
Daily Beast via Yahoo ^ | 7/08/22 | David Axe

The latest subvariant of the novel coronavirus to become dominant in Europe, the United States, and other places is also, in many ways, the worst so far.

The BA.5 subvariant of the basic Omicron variant appears to be more contagious than any previous form of the virus. It’s apparently better at dodging our antibodies, too - meaning it might be more likely to cause breakthrough and repeat infections.

Vaccines and boosters are still the best defense. There are even Omicron-specific booster jabs in development that, in coming months, could make the best vaccines more effective against BA.5 and its genetic cousins.

Still, BA.5’s ongoing romp across half the planet is a strong reminder that the COVID pandemic isn’t over. “We’re not done yet, by any stretch,” Eric Topol, founder and director of the Scripps Research Translational Institute in California, wrote on his Substack.

High levels of at least partial immunity from vaccines and past infection continue to prevent the worst outcomes—mass hospitalization and death. But globally, raw case numbers are surging, with serious implications for potentially millions of people who face a growing risk of long-term illness.

How COVID Could Screw You Worse With Each Reinfection

Equally worrying, the latest wave of infections is giving the coronavirus the time and space it needs to mutate into even more dangerous variants and subvariants. “The development of variants now is a freight train,” Irwin Redlener, the founding director of Columbia University’s National Center for Disaster Preparedness, told The Daily Beast.

In other words, unstoppable.

Wow - this is pure evil. More contagious AND is better at dodging our antibodies!

Which of course it could and probably does also dodge any antibodies the pseudo-faux vaxxes and faux-vax booster supposedly builds into the immune system.

Get a prescription for ivermectin and HCQ from a Push Health.

And get right with God. That is what will take the fear away.

Let’s see if FR’s fascist Vax shills show up on the thread just in time to promote their new “remedy”.

Funny. This was the very problem Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche predicted. That mass indiscriminate vaccination during the pandemic would drive the spread of mutations.

Geert Vanden Bossche was on Brett Weinstein’s podcast recently talking about this very issue. Weinstein’s Darkhorse podcast, which he usually does with his wife Heather, is an absolute must for keeping up with the real status of the COVID nonsense. He and his wife are liberals, but they’ve been substantially red-pilled, beginning back when they were at Evergreen State College and the black students tried to paint them as racists. They’re both very smart, but are what I would call “common sense intellectuals.” They agree with us on not only the COVID idiocy, but also wokeism, and they’re fascinating to listen to.

Anyone who hasn’t watched Brett Weinstein and his wife Heather Heying, or hasn’t heard of them before, really should watch their podcast. It’s the Darkhorse podcast on YouTube, and I’m sure it’s available elsewhere as well.

So... COVID-1984 was so stealthy that you had to be tested to even know you had it.Now they're claiming the BA.5 "subvariant" of O M M O I R C O R N O I N C is even stealthier?

Bet that this "variant" is a cover story for the damaged immune systems for those that took the Jim Jones Jab.

The Ninja variant is easy to identify. When the Ninja variant speaks, its lips are out of sync with the words.

That article should have been marked as an ad. There was no useful information there, only an ad for the fake vaccine.

I would not be surprised to some day learn that this new variant can dodge the vax-induced immunity, but cannot dodge natural immunity.
