Omicron BA.4 and BA.5 are coming.
You just have to look at these graphs showing how quickly they have grown in prevalence in South Africa. In a month or two we will be the same. BA.4 and BA.5 are more like BA.2 than BA.1 (BA.3 seems to have disappeared almost). The both have the mutation of concern L452R that was found…

Omicron now has 73 subvariants
Omicron B.1.1.529, now has 73 subvariants. These variants are being generated in the huge “virus pools” of vaccinated people as I have repeatedly noted since July 2021. The Delta variant generated 245 sublineages. The problem is that vaccines do not stop infection and transmission of the coronavirus. Currently vaccines have an efficacy of about 30-40%…

WA thinking about removing masks indoors. Crazy. Suicidal.
That would be really stupid. Really really stupid. Western Australia is currently at 1,000,000 cases a day compared to the USA per capita. It is not a popularity contest. I know 87% of West Australia want masks to go, but that will be suicide. Like it or not, masks DO stop superspreading indoors. You can…

Almost half of all people in hospital because of COVID-19 develop complications.
Covid19 is real. The coronavirus is real. Yes, we now are almost certain it escaped from lab. It was likely being made as a bioweapon. One could argue to find cure for whatever they made. It got out. We do NOT know if deliberate or accident. Anyhow, because it contains a genetically engineered spike protein,…

Covid19 restrictions State by State.
This is a table* of the current restrictions in each state and territory in Australia as at 15 April 2022. As 97% of all super spreading occurs indoors and 96% of them are spread via aerosols indoors then masks should be mandatory everywhere indoors. No state has that right at all. Indoors should include all…

What is going to happen in China?
China is in a real tight spot right now. It wants to maintain #zerocovid for good reason but omicron seems to be so infective and it has some of the densest population areas in the world, and more importantly most of these areas live and work inside where aerosols are most active. 97% of all…

It seems one of the best protective measures to avoid severity to covid19 is to go outside and get some sunshine
We all know that vitamin D is protective against covid19 but researchers have now found that NIR (near infrared radiation) is also important too as it acts as an anti-oxidant. I cannot explain it better than in this video so just watch it. Vitamin D is not enough. The key point is that going outside…

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…
