XBB variants evade antibodies and are more likely to persist in organs
75% of U.S. substantial or high transmission levels
Coinfections are more severe
Multiple respiratory viruses are circulating at very high levels.

XBB.1.5 is over 89% of cases in the U.S.
XBB.1.5 has spawned over 20 sub-variants, many of which have new advantages.
Mutations are occurring more often in the body of the virus.
It's likely to find a combo to further suppress the T-cell response soon.

It is horrible that more immunocompromised & elderly are getting infected & dying with protections lifted.
The more immunocompromised infected, the more rapid the pace of evolution.
The direction it's headed isn't likely to be less dangerous.
More will suffer from #LongCovid

EK.2 (XBB.1.5.13.2) is predominantly spreading in the U.S., with a 59% growth advantage over XBB.1.5. A concerning point about this variant is that it has another mutation added to the N-protein, likely impacting its interaction with T cells.
Ignoring it just gives the virus the advantage, and it will take every advantage we provide it.
The more often persistent infections occur, the more time and chances COVID will have to evolve around treatments and vaccines, making it harder for our immune systems to stop it.

COVID, Norovirus, Parainfluenza, Respiratory Adenovirus, Influenza, RSV, and others are all taking advantage of the weakened immune systems prior COVID infections leave in its wake.
The baseline of death, primarily from pneumonia right now, is incredibly high and increasing!
What are we doing about it?
Upgrading HVAC systems to eliminate 99% of pathogens and maintain CO2 at 600 ppm in schools and hospitals?
No, we aren't.
Time for Action is Now.

Why aren't we explaining that Rapid Antigen Tests have a high false negative rate? People have a false sense of security.
