#8 Double Secret Mutation.

Let me guess. No symptoms. No fever. Undetectable. Can spread to those who have had the Covid and those who have taken the shot.

Only way to stop it is shutting down for two weeks.

Hey, it's just for a couple of weeks so we can flatten the curve. Oh, and you will have to wear three masks.
