A new COVID variant that infected vaccinated residents and staff at a Kentucky nursing home has been detected in 47 U.S. states, according to data.
The R.1 variant spread through 45 residents and staff at the nursing home after an unvaccinated staff member triggered the infections in March, the Kentucky Department of Public Health revealed.
Due to its mutation, the variant, first detected in Japan, was able to bypass the antibody protection present in the fully vaccinated.
According to Outbreak.info, a website that collects data on COVID variants, as of September 21, R.1 has now infected more than 10,567 people around the world and has been detected in 47 states.
Maryland was found to have the highest number of cases, with 399 cases being detected since it was first found in the country.
In total, 2,259 Americans have been found with the R.1 strain which was first detected in the country on March 15, 2020. The latest case to be detected in the U.S. was on August 6 and was found in 0.5 percent of cases.
Outbreak.info also reported the strain has been found in at least 31 countries worldwide, including China, India and many nations in western Europe.
Despite the low number of infections, former Harvard Medical School professor William A. Haseltine said the new mutations found in the R.1 variant could help it spread more easily.
Writing in Forbes, Haseltine said the five variations found in R.1 can lead to "increased resistance to antibodies."

I’m not buying this “variant” term. It is even more objectionable than the new “migrant” term.
If “variant” is used to describe a disease, I just consider it to be a new bioweapon unleashed on society by the totalitarians.
The term “migrant” means Illegal Alien Invader.
Illegal Alien Invaders carry new bioweapon diseases into our country. Totalitarians like it.

Just in time. For what, I have no idea.
Yep, just in time. For what - the Maracopa audit, of course.
Think of the end of the week, FFF: “False Flag Friday”
I think we have a winner!
Where is the “Not this “S” again guy?
As the inventor of mRNA technology, Dr. Robert Malone said, “I tried to warn them not to this. They are creating infinite variations because, unlike old technology that uses the entire virus, they program the immune system to attack only one feature of the virus. Those people continue to breath out virus particles but not from the one their immune system destroys. Thus you get an infinite number of new mutations that the vaccine can’t recognize. This is pure idiocy.”
There is no time for questions citizen, only fear.

“So then why is it the unvaccinated person’s fault?”
We are not supposed to do our own research. Just accept it and do as you are told.

FU, PROVE IT! because if below is true, it makes NO DIFFERENCE and you don’t know if vaxxed or unvaxxed gave it to who
“Due to its mutation, the variant, first detected in Japan, was able to bypass the antibody protection present in the fully vaccinated. “
WTF is causing the mutations — natural immunity? /s

Exactly.
Yes, but how much of that kind of testing is actually happening? My understanding is that most COVID tests are not tested for variants because it is too expensive. Is that inaccurate?
So is there a test for the Delta variant?
This is where things get a little tricky. Technically, there is a test for the Delta variant—but it’s not something you or your doctor has access to. “There is no commercial test for the Delta variant,” Amesh A. Adalja, MD, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, tells Health. Instead, what happens is that a “selected sample” of positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests are “further studied to look for the characteristic mutations of the Delta variant,” Dr. Adalja explains.
The CDC has a national SARS-CoV-2 genomic surveillance program that works to ID and track down variants of the virus that are circulating in the US. Under this program, the CDC regularly receives samples from state health departments and other public health agencies for genetic sequencing, further characterization, and evaluation, the CDC explains. The system processes 750 samples a week and then calculates a slew of information, including what percentage of cases are due to certain variants.
“This sequencing is only done at specialty labs,” Thomas Russo, MD, professor and chief of infectious disease at the University at Buffalo in New York, tells Health.
Basically, there’s a small chance that your positive COVID-19 test could be sent off to the CDC for genomic sequencing, but you wouldn’t know or find.

“after an unvaccinated staff member triggered the infections”
But wait, weren’t they vaccinated?
Oh, they WERE, but the “NEW STRAIN” bypassed their antibodies.
Conclusion: THE JABS DON’T WORK! Always one “variant” away from immunity.
This should keep Big Pharma in BILLIONS until they kill all of us off!
First we had sars-cov2 then it morphed into novel coronavirus then became covid-19. That was before the variants. Then we had UK Brazil and South America strains. Then we have had delta and lamda variants. Now we have the R1 variant. Of course it is interesting that they call it R which used to refer to Rate of infection or reinfection. We never knew the R number but it was somewhere between really scary and super f’ing scary which was why we were worried about it in the first place. Now it seems we do know the R number, it’s 1!
Keep making and using vaccines and you’ll guarantee more variants. It’s the Democrats playbook to make sure elections are done thru mail-in ballots and the cheat is in.
