This reads like a headline straight out of the Babylon Bee.
delta plus epsilon, no doubt
Delta-plus, ‘double-whammy’ <<<
Double dog dare?
Hard to imagine it entering the US in Louisiana, but whatever. Conveniently sandwiched between Texas and Florida. Must be a coincidence.
I was born in South Africa, spent the most of the 1950’s in Brazil, and now live in Louisiana. Do I need to eject from the world?
Enough of this horse $h!7.
Next we’ll have the Delta top secret variant, then the Delta Double top secret variant, then... .
All bogus hype.
Fear porn
“ Delta-plus that has been identified for the first time in Louisiana
Locally known as The Big Easy Covid Lagniappe.
The researcher then tested those people with SARS2 (Covid). Those people were immune. There is ‘only’ a 22% difference in the genomes between Sars1 and Sars2 and so immunity held.
But note those ill in 2003 did not maintain active antibodies for 17 years. Their immune sytem hibernated those (my words) antibodies until it recognized the pathogen from years ago and began producing antibodies.
There are two wings to the immune system and Big Pharma is focusing on ‘active antibodies’ as if that is an accurate indicator of immunity. It actually means ‘activated immunity’, when you may have immunity but haven’t been exposed in so long you don’t have the antibodies.
Dr. Yeadon says the ‘variants’ are no more than 1% or 2% different from Covid and those who’ve had Covid will be immune to the variants.
The Deep State just wants a repeat performance, They want to put us through the lockdowns and panic as if it never happened before; they like the way we obeyed and want to see it again. :(
STOP THE FEAR-MONGERING. WE’RE SICK OF IT.
Waiting for the Delta Delta Delta variant... some of the prettiest girls when I was in college.
Looks like the hysteria level is being raised to delta+
Why do they think anyone believes them? They have negative credibility.
Oh no. I am frightened. I shall retreat to the deepest corners of my home, don four masks and quiver in terror.
Double Whammy?
Not a Triple or Quadruple Whammy?
Disappointing
High rate of transmission does not mean high rate of death or serious illness. The most highly contagious corvid virus is the common cold, with a near zero fatality rate.
Delta-plus is thought to have the same higher rate of transmission as the Delta variant, which was originally identified in India and is about two times as infectious as the original coronavirus strain. But it also has a characteristic of variants from South Africa and Brazil…

Dry, with an earthy bouquet and a hint of almond.
