Does anyone know how they determine Delta variants?

Posted on 07/28/2021 8:52:33 AM PDT by MNDude

I understand that they (medical industry) must be able to see virus differences under electron microscopes, but I'm curious how it is possible to determine tens of thousands cases.

Does anyone understand the science for determining the variants of local viruses?

Different symptoms. For one, less chance of losing sense of smell. Sore throat and runny nose are common.

And what is the difference between a “variant” vs a “strain”?

Oh that is simple. Anytime someone who has been vaccinated against Covid and actually gets Covid, it has to be the Delta strain because, you know, the vaccine works.

You can have covid without loss of taste or smell. Lots of people did.

Since we don’t really have an effective test for the presence of covid, by extension, there is no effective test for the “Delta variant/strain”.

The Delta variant virus has the Greek letter “d” on the side of the virus, only an electron microscope can see it though.

Just look at the Ingredients Label; that’ll tell it all.

The media talks about it, so you just know it is true. Every case is now Delta....until the media tells you about the new one.

This will keep happening because the covid is the reason used to shoot people up with the poison that they will control you with. It won’t go away until every human sheep is stuck with it or else eliminated.

This great reset will happen because you will be controlled and have no choice.

I don’t know how they tell but Colorado shows a chart identifying 6 active variants and their case numbers. Delta is the most common at 40.7% of all cases at this time.

They show another 28.8% of all cases as “unknown” as to what variant. Maybe those are the old flu.
