“A new subvariant of the novel-coronavirus called XBB dramatically announced itself earlier this week, in Singapore.
New COVID-19 cases more than doubled in a day, from 4,700 on Monday to 11,700 on Tuesday—and XBB is almost certainly why.
The same subvariant just appeared in Hong Kong, too."
“..XBB is in many ways the worst form of the virus so far. It’s more contagious than any previous variant or subvariant.
It also evades the antibodies from monoclonal therapies, potentially rendering a whole category of drugs ineffective as COVID treatments.(Emphasis Mine)
"The good news is that the new “bivalent” vaccine boosters from Pfizer and Moderna seem to work just fine against XBB,
even though the original vaccines are less effective against XBB.
They won’t prevent all infections and reinfections, but they should significantly reduce the chance of severe infection potentially leading to hospitalization or death.
“Even with immune-evasive variants, vaccine protection against what matters most—severe disease—remains intact..,”
(My Comment) : Oh Goody, Goody ! Another vaccine to prevent 'severe illness, hospitalization, or death.
Another vaccine variant to combat another virus variant and further enrichen Big Pharma
You have to wonder whether there will be a clinical study longer than four months, when we don't even know the medical reactions to the last pseudo-vaccine
“ Fool me once, shame on you,
Fool me twice, shame on me “
Just get some ivermectin on hand and there’s no problem. Azithromycin will take care of secondary infection in the lungs if that happens.
