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.

I’m still waiting for the Godzilla variant of Covid.
Ah, I see the new Mid-term variant has been anointed.
🤮
Wow - this is pure evil. More contagious AND is better at dodging our antibodies!
Like buying a bottle of bleach that cleans AND whitens!
The Thanos version will kill every other person with the snap of a finger.
The only way it could be more dangerous is if it makes people more “liberal.”
Oh lookie - just in time for the midterms...
Look it, I am a old man. I am frightened. I had the covid twice now. I don’t think I can survive another.
Another coming plandemic.....
Setting stage for the Nov. Midterms.
How quaint.
The hospitals have had two years to prepare for any “surge” in covid.
There is no need for masks or vaccines.
To late. They have the missiles and the nukes.
Just as I thought.
Why give the Nazi psychopaths at Daily Beast any publicity?
Amusing anecdote: A guy in our garage band is recovering from Covid. He’s 70 and doubly vaxxed. He was incredulous last summer when he learned hubby and I weren’t vaccinated. I’ve had it twice and although I wish him well, I hope he learned a little lesson about the “vaccine.” 🤣

Aren’t we a month or two early for the mail in / drop box variant?
The only people still playing this goofy game are democrats and other garden variety neurotics and hypochondriacs
Vaxx
boosters
cases
danger
subvariants
On and on.
The word symptom does not appear anywhere in the “article.”
The word propaganda does come to mind.
