The BA.2 subvariants > BA.1 subvariants in the UK. Deaths Rising.
Just a quick update on what the variants are doing in the UK. It seems the BA.2 subvariants and all growing while the BA.1 subvariants are being replaced. BA.2, BA.2.3, BA2.9, BA.2.10, and BA.2.12 are all growing in prevalence with BA.2.9 probably growing the fastest and BA.2 the slowest. All the BA.1 subvariants are reducing…

BA.2 is not Omicron. And what are BA.4 and BA.5?
BA.2 is very different to BA.1 and BA.3. Why is it called Omicron? Because it came from South Africa around the same time. I thought the whole purpose of using Greek letters was so we could not tell where the variant came from. Delta always reminds me of the Ganges delta plains and hence of…

How many people actually have covid? x20?
I assumed that with vaccines masking/reducing/preventing symptomatic illness that there would be at least as many as counted cases who are asymptomatic and not counted. This article about the covid19 outbreak in Shanghai blew my socks off. “Shanghai on Tuesday reported 22,348 new asymptomatic coronavirus cases and 994 symptomatic cases for 11 April, the local…

Was Denmark too hasty to declare that the coronavirus was just a flu and life was now normal again?
When Denmark’s Case Fatality Rate (CFR) dropped to 0.04% (7-day-runng average) in January 2022, the government of Denmark declared the pandemic was over. With a CFR so low, noting that the CFR for influenza is about 0.1 to 0.15%, that made reasonable sense. In early February most restrictions were subsequently lifted. It was said that…

Australia has BA.2.3. Looks ominous.
Omicron subvarinat B.A.2.3 is growing in Australia. It looks ominous as the Philippines Hong Kong and South Korea recently had high CFRs and BA.2.3. CFR=Case Fatality Rate = Death Rate

TGA says 2 (I say 9) reported deaths following covid19 vax on 28 March 2022, including boys aged 5 and 19.
The TGA DAENS website says 2 reported deaths in adverse notification database on 28 march 20222, but i scrolled down and counted 9. Amazing. I am about to search through all the record to see how old these people where and why 9 people died on one day after receiving the vaccine. i mean there…

#Covid19. Do not forget about fomites and surfaces
Being one of the architects who suggested that most #covid19 #superspreading events occurs #indoors and via #aerosols does not mean you can forget about the possibility of infection from fomites and surfaces. Not everyone gets infected in a superspreading event. In cooler weather the SARS-CoV2 virus (or novel coronavirus) can survive on lots of surfaces.…

Deltacron has landed in Australia
The dreaded recombinant variant #deltacron which I warned has not disappeared has now arrived in Australia. It has the spike like Omicron but the other parts are like the Delta variant. If it is 10 times worse as Omicron, which delta was, then the death rate could be hundreds a day, even close to 1000…

How many people around you are carrying covid19 right now in WA?
There will always be a large virus pool from which new variants will form, so even if people develop immunity to one variant they will not be immune to new variants. This virus can become weaker one year but more deadly the year after.
