WHO Says Delta Variant Is Becoming The Dominant Covid Variant Globally

 

Web MD: India Signals Alarm About New ‘Delta Plus’ Variant 

Public health officials in India are sounding the alarm on another coronavirus variant, which they are calling “Delta Plus.” 

The Delta Plus variant, which is a mutation of the widespread Delta strain first identified in India, could be more infectious and cause more severe COVID-19. Officials in India labeled it a “variant of concern” this week. 

The variant, also known as B.1.617.2.1, has led to an increase in cases in India. It has also been detected in the U.S., U.K., China, Japan, Poland, Portugal, Russia, and Switzerland.

  1. The people say the WHO needs to be dismantled, they don't care what the WHO says. And the sooner the WHO is im fact dismantled, the more likely it is that this ends peaceful.

  3. 811,

    How do you think human ended up with 23 chromosomes? One theory is that viruses caused chromosomes to duplicate and then the duplicated chromosomes differentiated.

    There are 3 theories as to how viruses emerge. The may not be exclusive. One theory is that viruses derive or emerge for living organism. Meaning that if we eliminated every virus form the Earth, they would remerge form living animals de novo.

    Duplicate genes can be important to survival, Elephant should not be so big as as a species. The larger an animal is, the greater its cancer risk. But elephants are not riddled with cancer. They have multiple copies of a gene that suppresses cancer.

    The LCD in knowledge is that moist people and politicians do not understand viruses. IT is why Holly wood can do a little hand waving about the science of their setting and bring us one plague or zombie move after another.

    The delta variant spread easier, but is also less lethal. Lethality and transmissibility usually are inverse of one another. It is a rule of thumb, which could be proven by game theory.

    My prediction is people are going to go after lockdown politicians. I'll just make sure I have some jiffy pop and a good lawn chair.

  4. This just in. Life evolves, adapts etc. That is the meaning of life. Pure theater for the masses.

  5. There are only some elements on the periodic table. DNA has a maximum number base, length. There are only so many combination. The most chemical based evolution can do is go round robin. There are only so many diseases out there and we have been subjected to them all already.

    WNU is aggregating ghost stories and I think he likes it.

    There will be more people living next year than this year barring a major war.

  6. The WHO has shown to be an extremely politicised body, that much became apparent in the now infamous Skype with the WHO on the Taiwan issue -- in lock step with China

    The WHO was also very much wrong onbkey issues and recommendations regarding this oh so terrible disease (lol) to an extent that suggests criminal incompetence or corruption. My guess is the latter as I have a medical degree and saw, with my colleagues, that they're lying through their teeth. My guess is on behalf of China, which has subverted many institutions the West believes are democratic. They're not. Democracy is dying globally.

    I'm for dismsntling the WHO
