this theory plays with RW's low hanging fruit theory well. some ppl are more suceptable to even a cold or other illness. a low-grade variant of the covid virus would hit those ppl even iof they only had a slight exposure. where as a healthy person could b skipped by a low grade version.

since we know the virus mutates constantly, it is logical that some cases could mutate up and get worse. we have seen this as the virus took whole families down.and there have been localized outbreaks such as the Indian reservation in AZ.

this also explains the progress in NZ,Australia,UK,and Israel. they got lucky with a low-grade variant and it mutated down. still can be jumping or spreading but not making ppl severely sick so they avoid hospitals.

BRAZIL and evidently FRANCE now got hit with a different mutation. and that version mutated up and infected and made more ppl ill.hence, their cases are exploding.

the US and UK got lucky in a sence that we got a lower grade version in the beginning and that version muated down to b less severe.

the thing is with out border open, we are starting to spread the other variants that are going to do the opposite of what we have seen thus far.

as we have seen reports, mixing variants causes viral explosions and becomes deadly.ppl won't b infected with 1 low-grade version but will b fighting off multiple versions at once.mix 3 variants and death rates will spike FAST.

this theory also explains RW's survival past his 9 lives. his immune system is hyper focused due to his work. his risk is much lower than an average person. the original variant that the coast saw passed over him.

so unless you are compromised due to some illness, the original strain in the US would pass over u.the odds were in your favor not to even get sick. if u had some major illness, then u should have been isolated.this worked for the 1st or original strain.

if i am right. the new variants from Brazil and South Africa will be spreading by now. the areas that had the 1st cases of those should b watched. that is where we should see major case #'s and deaths. that will warn us ahead of the coming waves or storm. also the class of ppl infected will b different. BRAZIL i believe is seeing more younger ppl infected. the ages and health status of those going to the hospitals will change.
