What is happening to the BA.4 and BA.5 subvariants of Omicron in South Africa?
I largely recorded this on video and uploaded to youtube. The world will have a new wave of BA.4 and BA.5 coming soon. I just looked up to see how these variants are faring in South Africa because they be dominant here in Australia soon. BA.1.* has essentially been wiped out, whereas BA.2.* have been…

BA.4 and BA.5 are growing fast in South Africa. Detected in Australia now. Get ready for a new deadly winter wave.
Australia is heading to catastrophe with BA4 and BA.5 now in Australia and the removal of the one mandate that was strongly supported by science, namely masks. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/may/04/three-new-covid-omicron-subvariant-australia-ba-2-12-1-ba4-ba5-detected BA.4 and BA.5 are growing fast in South Africa with respect to BA.2. See graph. South Africa is almost certainly heading into fifth wave. See graph. BA.4…

Covid19 deaths in Australia are on the rise.
Don’t let the dropping of mask mandates for the election fool you. Look at this. It is much clearer if you look back 60 days. Meanwhile, Prof Paul Kelly (CMO Australia) had a brilliant idea (for him anyhow) to get covid19 deaths down to zero. Stop counting them! LOL. Lump them all into the excess…

Australia thinks herd immunity is possible. It is not.
When Australia started to mandate the vaccine, it must have thought herd immunity was possible but it was not, and that was with the delta variant in August/ September/October 2021. I have calculated that the R naught value of delta variant is about 12.5. Here is a graph I circulated lat year. Th R naught…

With no Effective Vaccine they will let the coronavirus rip in Australia, just for the bloody election.
I have written about this before but we need to raise it again given that they (the dumb politicians) have decided to remove most mandates and restrictions in most states in Australia because of the federal election. No party wants to look like they are Nazi’s or dictators. The one mandate that was supported by…

Move over for BA.12. Ten-times more infectious than BA.2
A new variant of the novel coronavirus, BA.12, was found in Bihar’s Patna on Thursday. According to the state’s health department, the new variant of Omicron was found in the Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences (IGIMS). There is a new kid in town and we have not dealt with waves from BA.2.9, BA.2.2, BA.2.12, BA.2.12.1,…

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…

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…
