if these two variants hook up, what gender will their child be?

Now, do be assuming - that's sexist.

Gotta let DeltiCron grow up a bit and make "its" own choice - 3 years should do it.

“They make it sound like different variants get together and have babies.”

Recombination was known to occur long before this.

I am so disappointed, reading through about sixty comments, to learn that the “trust” the CDC, you-are-paranoid, “accept reality” crowd hasn't weighed in as yet to tell us how honest Walensky, Fauci, and the WHO are.

Surge! Wave! Variant! Super variant and super dooper variant!

Recent data from Johns Hopkins University's Coronavirus Resource Center:

Global deaths as of 14 December 2021

https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/

( 5,317,396 deaths / 7,913,375,702 world population ) x 100 = 0.0672 % over a period of two years

Less than seven tenths of one percent in almost two years.

Coronaviuruses are not that kind of virus.

They are simple replicators. They literally clone themselves. The variants come from the fact they are also crappy replicators—that is, their clones are like running a copy through a copy machine a million times. After a while, the result looks nothing like the original.

Two viruses would have to attack the same cell, at the same time..and then find the room inside the cell to replicate...again at the same time. Then, the cells would have to share enough structure that their RNA would combine. And then combine in a way that would survive and thrive.

The probability of that would be less than miniscule.

I think what the original guy actually was trying to convey is that is might be possible to host both viruses at one time. If that were true, the Omicron variant would push out Delta in short order—as it is more prolific. But...it is also reported to be less lethal.

So again, the ‘danger’ this guy is proposing is limited.

The comments are akin to talking about a comet hitting the earth. Yeah...its possible and perhaps even likely. Its just as likely not happening today.

Hey let’s frighten the public into taking our expensive dangerous product which doesn’t work but really works for our bottom line, and as a total bonus lets blame those not taking the product for its failure to work until government coerces them to take it. And bonus! Let’s make the crappy product perpetual so theh always have to take “booster” or they are subject to losing their livelihood and liberty to travel.

It's like a little planet, blanketed in nuclear explosions. Imagine what that'll do to your insides!
