I'm not so excited because it's based on a computer model rather than empirical evidence.

Oh. Oh. UK case decline keeps slowing. Quoting: CoronaCoaster The week on week decreases have been -50%, -40%, -22% and today -18%. Cases could be increasing again in a week or two if this keeps up. https://twitter.com/_/status/1421124434719649795 I highly suspected that Covid is coming in waves (or it runs out of people to infect until the next wave), it is very clear in Worldometer main page and even when zoomed into individual countries, most showed the same patterns. https://imgur.com/5CZCcj4 https://imgur.com/0QAHpf5 I posted the latest official UK weekly infection survey a couple of pages back. Here it is again. [link to www.ons.gov.uk (secure)] This is almost certainly a better guide to the current levels of infection in the UK than the daily cases numbers. The weekly survey mails swabs to tens of thousands of random UK residents and asks them to return the swabs after use. Today’s weekly results show that the UK epidemic continues to grow. The daily case numbers do not reflect what’s occurring in the UK. Many symptomatic people are not going for testing, and many people who test positive have deleted the test and trace app, or are refusing to co-operate with the track and trace staff when asked to name their close contacts The difference between the troughs and crests are getting bigger. Why does this virus wax and wane? “We have chosen to fill our hives with honey and wax; thus furnishing mankind with the two noblest of things, which are sweetness and light.” Jonathan Swift. Instead of tearing us apart, could this virus bring humanity together, to fight a common enemy? Lago |

A doomsday new Covid variant that could kill UP TO one in three people is a realistic possibility, according to the Government's top scientists.

And a downside of Britain's hugely successful vaccine drive, it appears the country's greater levels of immunity could help speed up the process. Scientists unveiled the threat of a super mutant variant in a paper looking at potential scenarios that could emerge in the not-so-distant future. Experts said a future strain could be resistant to vaccines if it came about by the jab-resistant South Africa Beta variant combining with the more transmissible Kent Alpha or 'India' Delta variants. The process — known as recombination — could lead to a strain with increased morbidity and mortality. The team admitted vaccines should work unless there was an extra-potent mutation that rendered jabs much less effective at blocking serious disease — which many experts say is unlikely. But they said the extra lethality would be expected even in the face of vaccination since vaccines do not provide absolute sterilising immunity.

[link to nypost.com (secure)] Most people do not head to the hospital for symptoms that are basically flu-like - perhaps a bit more severe - but still in that realm. This is especially true in the more benign summer viral season. However, Fall and Winter are just around the corner and with the vaxed testing positive already - at least those they bother to - we may be facing a complete catastrophe in the making. With hundreds of thousands of the vaccinated being maimed by the shot - with a range of severity, of course - how will they fare in the more stringent viral months that are coming? I suspect the 'authorities' know very well it's going to get bad - quickly. |
