This variant will be here soon because democrat thugs want borders open and Biden's too much of a pansy to call for stopping flight from India.

Pansy? Yeah, India's 'brown' after all... and dead Americans are a small price to pay to keep Biden from being called a racist. Right? Gotta keep our priories straight...

So if this is a killer we'll know soon.

If there really is a more lethal variant, I would not be surprised if it wasn’t purposely released by China on their historic enemy neighbor.

I’ve learned over the last year that most people can’t do simple mathematical comparisons like that.

Setting aside what the meaningless term “cases” might actually mean, do a couple of searches:

First, ask a search engine how many cases of COVID-19 are there in India?

Second, ask what the population of India is.

Then do the math. Today or yesterday there were about 350,000 new cases in India, a country with a population of 1.37 billion people. That single day new cases total is 0.025 % of the population.

I will be told that it’s more meaningful to examine the cumulative totals of cases. 17 million cases going back a year, which cumulatively is 1.24% of the population.

But neither of these tiny percents is meaningful, because the term “cases” is meaningless to begin with. It’s like asking how many cases of flu there are, compared, say, to how many people are dying BECAUSE OF the flu and the flu alone.

Take them off ventilators! Ventilators = death with covid. You’re ripping apart lung tissue.

Since when do Americans take as gospel the opinions of a random doctor in India?

Re: Far more lethal variant

Is this how the Chinese military settles border disputes with nuclear armed neighbors?

I will not be concerned until there is a septuple mutant COVID virus. Even then all I have to do is layer another mask on my face. If you have a quadruple COVID mutant then you need to wear a layer of 4 masks, if you have a quintuple mutant you wear 5 masks. Simple. /sarc

I don’t believe it has been established whether the current vaccines are effective against all variants. So it very well might be useless against the stronger strain that this doctor believes is emerging in India.

The Covid Troll Patrol will be arriving here in 1... 2... 3... to assure us that this new more lethal varient will kill millions more Indians and millions more of us. They just can’t let it go.

COVID troll reporting for duty!

Where did the magically disappeared flu victims go this past flu season fireman15?

"The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says that as of January 30, there have been just 1,316 positive flu cases in its clinical surveillance network since September. Around this time last year, it had logged 129,997 positive flu cases in the same time frame."
source: https://www.vox.com/science-and-health/22272237/flu-cases-down-historic-what-does-it-mean

Flu deaths are being counted as COVID deaths. That is a 99% drop and if you can swallow lies like that so easily then you are intellectually impaired.

It appears that the New York Post is using pictures from a gas plant leak 11 months ago, with people lying in the streets of India, purporting to show this as the current situation in India due to a COVID outbreak. The media et al are trying to use India to ratchet up the “fear” in other countries - fear porn/propaganda ... it’s all they do anymore.

If you want the REAL data, here it is:

Of course the spreading of Covid in India couldn’t have anything to do with the entire nation being one of the dirtiest and overcrowded places on Earth, with feces covering most public areas.

The Gange River is a flowing cesspool.

Toilet paper is seldom used in India, like many Arab nations.

Tijuana is like a park compared to Mumbai or any major Indian city.

Nah, that couldn’t have anything to do with any of this....

Yup, new an improved. I wondered what Fauci has been up to lately as I have not seen his gerbil face on TV much.

Coming soon to a theater near you. FROM CHINA WITH LOVE staring Anthony Fauci as the new Doctor No as in no you cannot go out; no you cannot do anything. Also staring Joe Bidet as a modern day Inspector Clouseau. Costaring AOC as the bartender who does not know the difference between stirred and shaken but steals tips with alacrity. And introducing John Kerry, known by his stage name Benedict Arnold.

I figured with all that their immune systems would be bullet-proof.

The more lethal “Indian” strain has been seen working on computers and running convenience stores.

Do you suppose Bid*n would ever block flights to the U.S. from India to reduce spread of the strain? When Trump did this with China, they all cried he was xenophobic.

It might be pointless anyway since most flights make connections elsewhere outside India before continuing to the U.S. The TSA would have to screen for Indian passports which would be labeled “racial profiling”.

India is a natural competitor to China. I really wonder if this new outbreak is not gain if function new strain seeded by China.
