LjL | de-facto ↑ | 21:34 |
de-facto | BA.4 and BA.5 arriving in US? | 21:35 |
de-facto | https://covariants.org/per-country <-- looks like it yeah | 21:36 |
de-facto | BA.5 taking over BA.2.12.1 in USA | 21:37 |
de-facto | lol i bet soon those that always wishfully repeat "its over, its over" will be in for a surprise | 21:41 |
de-facto | so if BA.1 and BA.2 were the first immuno evasive Omicron mutants it looks like BA.4 and BA.5 now rapidly take over even in those countries that previously had high case numbers in BA.1 and BA.2 | 21:46 |
de-facto | hence the second wave of immuno evasive mutants, exactly as we expected here over a year ago | 21:46 |
de-facto | and if BA.4/5 can already cause a wave in the summer, just imagine what will happen in the winter when people stay packet closely together indoors with closed windows | 21:47 |
ecks | solution is for people to travel more instead of packing closely indoors, clearly | 21:48 |
de-facto | haha yeah its like advising people to surf all the shady websites with exploits to import the latest viruses from the internet into their local networks | 21:49 |
de-facto | without protection from latest patches or antivirus signatures of course | 21:49 |
de-facto | i wonder if people will accept mandatory measures to cut down transmission pathways in the fall and winter again, e.g. wearing masks, taking tests for participation, social distancing, no gathering, no traveling etc | 21:50 |
de-facto | because without them infection numbers will explode | 21:51 |
de-facto | depending on the mutant that is imported in the fall/winter it may be less or more severe cases | 21:51 |
ecks | doubtful | 21:51 |
de-facto | that pretty much is at random since infections happen before severe symptoms take carriers out of infection chains | 21:52 |
ecks | masks in certain scenarios maybe | 21:52 |
de-facto | e.g. its no disadvantage for a mutant to cause more severe cases with hospitalizations or increased mortality because infection of susceptible happen way before people end up in hospital | 21:52 |
ecks | if my planned august trip is impacted i will riot | 21:53 |
de-facto | well stay away from people | 21:54 |
Atque | de-facto: It's already winter, in South America, Australia etc. Has the variant hit those places yet? | 21:54 |
ecks | if i managed a trip in august 2021, hopefully this year'll be fine as well | 21:55 |
de-facto | its simply impossible to predict if the next mutant will be less or more severe, all we can safely assume is that it will have the capability to infect those with the most widespread pre-conditions such as vaccinations and infections with previous mutants | 21:55 |
de-facto | hence it will be extremely infectious, if it will cause more severe disease, we cant know until it arrives and circulates for a while in a population | 21:56 |
de-facto | Atque, i meant the seasonal effect we already observed the last two years in e.g. Europe and other northern hemisphere countries | 21:56 |
de-facto | because it depends on population density and style of living as well as traveling habits etc | 21:57 |
ecks | ironically i've managed to avoid covid for over 2 years but i finally got influenza for the first time in ages | 21:57 |
Atque | de-facto: Yeah, there's surprisingly little talk of pattern manufacturing for covid19 boosters hey | 21:58 |
de-facto | i would not trust that vaccine manufacturers are willing to bring updated signatures on the market if they are not forced to do so by the government contracts | 21:59 |
de-facto | they already said they would do that for Beta, Delta and Omicron, yet nothing arrived on the market | 21:59 |
de-facto | the only sane way to avoid infection is to stay away from contamination with this nasty pathogen | 22:00 |
de-facto | maybe at some bright day in the future we will see mandatory biweekly testing being introduced for every citizen | 22:03 |
de-facto | that probably would help a lot with finding and isolating infection chains, its just a question of how much effort is invested into implementation and scaling of the most efficient solution | 22:04 |
