[ENGLISH.AAWSAT] US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said on Thursday that it was tracking a new, highly mutated lineage of the virus that causes COVID-19, Rooters reported.
So dig out your mask and increase your booster shot frequency to once or twice a week.
The lineage is named BA.2.86, and has been detected in the United States, Denmark and Israel, the CDC said in a post on messaging platform X (formerly Twitter).

"As we learn more about BA.2.86, CDC’s advice on protecting yourself from COVID-19 remains the same," the agency said.
"Stay inside, don't go to election campaigns, give your ballot to the nice young people - they'll fill it out for you"
The World Health Organization (WHO) earlier on Thursday said in a post on X that it had classified BA.2.86 as a "variant under monitoring" due to the large number of mutations it carries.

#3 'Dr. Jeanne Marrazzo is expected to start the job this fall, the NIH said in a statement released Wednesday. Dr. Anthony Fauci retired from the post in December.' She is far worse than Fauci. I expect a heavy hand, lock downs as before. COVID is back and highly contagious. Media about to sound alarm or Marrazzo will sound the alarm. Fun times again.

#6 This will make the Ottawa protests look like a Biden campaign rally.

#7 I don't understand. I was told that taking shots and booster stops the virus in its tracks.

#8 Those statements are inoperative.

#9 Well crap, just tested positive. A week working from home is okay though. First time positive. Probably had original strain in Feb 2020 but nothing since
