CDC tracks a potentially dangerous coronavirus variant

Just when we start to think the pandemic may be ending, the CDC is tracking another new potentially dangerous coronavirus variant called Orthrus CH.1.1.

It got its name from a variant tracker in Australia. Orthrus in Greek mythology was a two-headed cattle dog.

It looks very unique. So, does this new CH 1.1 variant.

As of this week, it's at just under two percent of cases in the United States.

While it comes from Omicron, the concern is that it has a mutation seen in Delta and that was a potentially deadly and dangerous strain.

"Delta seemed to be a little bit more severe, so it caused more people to be admitted to be admitted to the hospital, more people in intensive care," said infectious disease specialist, Dr. Stephen Blatt.

Technically, we really aren't at the end of the emergency phase of this pandemic.

Given the frequency of Mutation there are around 10,000 Variants Plus out there at this point and growing all the time, for the most part they are pretty much nothing to worry about now. But hey keep the fear going.

Generally from what I have read the more the mutations the less problem it is and this thing mutates at least once every 10 hours. More like a mild cold at this point I would imagine.

by failing to stop them murdering people,
they have made so much money, so much money they love,
that they WILL do it again.

Meanwhile, from earlier today...

Quebec recommends booster only to vulnerable never infected with COVID-19

Could this have anything to do with...

Didn’t know Gates and Pfizer had an office down there.

You know, I will NEVER believe anything out of CDC for the rest of my life. They have made themselves a joke.
