Here's my question - if the little bugger (pun not intended) is mutating at this rate, are there any projections on when the thing might become an airborne-communicable variant? Or is that thought not possible for the virus?

The virus is rather labile, not near as robust as HBV. Difficult to say how easily transformed into a more virulent agent. My guess is not very likely.

...are there any projections on when the thing might become an airborne-communicable variant? exposure to oxygen kills it.

I'm not a doctor, but I would bet big money that if you avoid
exchanging needles and body fluids with folks who resemble this,
then you will be safe. Regardless of "mutations," I think you'll be safe.
