1/ CDC China Stark Warning On Deltacron: 'The “Wolf” Is Indeed Coming' Recombination variant is a 'Grey Rhino' event (highly predictable, slowly emerging, obvious threat that is ignored or minimized by decision-makers) Past variants may not have been 'worst-case until now...
2/
China's CDC with their wealth of knowledge on Coronaviruses has decided to comment and release what appears to be a stark warning about Deltacron.
'No recombination events involving large genomic fragments (like “Deltacron”) have been found in SARS-CoV-2 before.'
3/ The deeply respected and knowledgeable CHINESE scientists write about the Deltacron variant, that as professor Leon Kostrikis who first identified the variant warned, it has the spike of Omicron (infectivity) mixed with Delta (implying higher severity of disease)
4/
'A total of 36 amino acid changes is found in the S protein compared to the prototype of SARS-CoV-2 . Among 36 amino acid mutations, 27 were found in BA.1, 5 mutations were found in AY.4, and 4 mutations were found in both AY.4 and BA.1'
5/
They note that this is not the first time Sars2 has recombined, however, Deltacron is different...
6/
'However, these inter-lineage recombination events only occurred in some loci of the genome. No recombination events involving large genomic fragments (like “Deltacron”) have been found in SARS-CoV-2 before.'
Indeed Deltacron is a first in this regard—a true hybrid variant..
7/
They then talk about the possible future recombinations events given this new finding:
'The frequent genetic recombination of CoVs would lead to the emergence of novel viruses. Further, the most important threat of the emergence of these novel recombinant viruses..
... is the possibility of cross-species transmission . The most recent example for that is two canine-feline recombinant alphacoronaviruses with extremely high genomic similarity (99.4%) have been isolated from humans by two independent research groups in different countries'
9/
On past variants:
'Although the emergence and subsequent spread of these VOCs has had a huge impact on global health and economy, it may not have been the worst case until now, as recombination (a major mechanism bringing genetic diversity to coronaviruses)...
10/
...has not really emerged on a large scale and shown its power before the emergence of “Deltacron.”
The emergence of “Deltacron” is therefore a “grey rhino” rather than “black swan” event.
A 'grey rhino event' refers to 'a slowly emerging, obvious threat that is ignored or minimized by decision makers. The climate crisis and disruptive technologies are two examples of this type of threat. Grey rhinos are also called “known unknowns.”
A 'black swan event' typically means a massive out of nowhere catastrophe that nobody could've seen coming—Grey rhino means the opposite—catastrophe that everybody could see coming.
13/ 'Deltacron is just the beginning' they warn
'This kind of uncertainty is doomed to increase the likelihood of generating a novel recombinant virus with unknown risk to humans.'
Unfortunately, rather than listening to the early warning given about Deltacron in January by Prof Kostrikis and others—the establishment criminal lying psychopaths decided to deny what was happening.
16/
As such valuable time has been wasted—allowing for more and more Deltacron to spread—much of the Deltacron spread has largely gone undetected due to the fact it takes specialist equipment and knowledge to detect it.
17/
Deltacron has since been detected in multiple countries—with india seeming to have somewhat of an outbreak of the variant.
It's worth remembering of course, that Omicron and all the 'sub-variants' of it: BA1, BA2, BA3, are already as different from eachother as Alpha is from Delta—so the fact that BA1 would recombine in this manner with Delta is certainly not good news at all
20/ Many have suggested that because Deltacron appears to have not picked up pace yet it's nothing to be too concerned about it—as the Chinese CDC has illustrated here: the opposite is true: in fact it opens up a whole new chapter in Sars 2 saga.
1/UK, BA2, Covid, London: Admissions Doubled Since Freedom Day, Patients on vents 14% increase, 28% increase in cases in just one week—'there had never been a riskier time to travel' says Tim Spector—Zoe app estimates London has highest number of new cases.
2/
London is starting to surge again—something I can confirm from all the messages I'm getting and also the data which is showing alarming rises on all key metrics.
3/ R in London is estimated to be above 1—meaning we are now in an exponential growth phase.
Seen that Shingles is trending and they're saying it's because of vaccine side effects? Worth remembering, of course, that Covid INFECTION reactivates latent viruses.
So anybody who had chickenpox may be subject to shingles—especially if they have Covid—though, the phenomenon of a massive wave of Shingles should also be investigated as it maybe some sort of inflammatory response to the virus itself (adult MIS-C)?
One of the many things ignored has been the massive outbreaks of 'chickenpox' reported in schools across the UK for the whole of this year.
1/This should be investigated as this has been reported a lot the last few months—I wonder if Sars 2 has bred with another RNA virus and this the result? Unless isolates are taken of these cases then we don't know what's going on—but it could be Sars 2 heading in a terrible
2/...new direction, and if out turned to be the case would mean possible antigenic drift to the point at which the virus has evolves to from the original Sars 2 that it's a new virus—hence why it wouldn't show up on LFTs and PCRs.
3/
Many has postulated that such cases are in fact flu—I'm sorry but breathing problems is not a common symptom of flu and it's not flu season anymore—further cases of flu tend to limit to less than 1 week during acute phase.
1/ COVID: Reinfections: 31% INCREASED risk of Hospital Admission Says Massive New Study—HUGE 8X INCREASE IN REINFECTIONS when Omicron became dominant
'These data suggest that re-infection with SARS-CoV-2 occurs regularly and can amount to significant population level'
2/ A massive new study by researchers at the University of Michigan has shown the dire consequences of herd immunity delusion—demonstrating using a massive databank of patient records from the U.S. Veterans Administration (VHA)...
3/
...that reinfections were more severe than first ones in terms of hospital admission—and also occur frequently.
Chris Whitty once again displaying that he doesn't understand this virus and never will—let's unpick this mess:
Whitty is a nasty piece of work: let's get that straight first and foremost—before people defend him, he was wrong about pandemics before we had a pandemic and he continues to be wrong now:
Problem 1: assumption that is seasonal: completely wrong.
Problem 2: assuming that there is 'no end point'—which is his way of saying of 'learn to live with it and shut up'
But, there can at any point, be an end point to the pandemic is we chose to take the right actions.
