LjL | de-facto, that's a lot of graphs | 20:18 |
de-facto | yes some seem to be quite useful, e.g. for current trends | 20:19 |
LjL | de-facto, i saw a doctor yesterday, and the patient who left (who was in before me) was unmasked :\ | 20:22 |
de-facto | most people here are unmasked now :\ | 20:24 |
de-facto | in public stores, transport, not sure about MDs offices | 20:25 |
LjL | yes on transport too here, even though it's STILL mandatory on public transport | 20:25 |
LjL | but they've just stopped caring | 20:25 |
LjL | the moment they made it no longer mandatory in stores, it seems people seem to have taken as "yeah well we can just stop caring now" | 20:25 |
LjL | even though the mask mandate for public transport was extended to 30 September | 20:25 |
de-facto | its not good as we are in the BA.5 wave, its gaining momentum in most EU countries as well as US | 20:26 |
de-facto | i think i am the only one wearing FFP3 i stores, some few (maybe 5-10%) do wear FFP2 or surgical masks | 20:26 |
de-facto | now they started charging people for testing, 3€ per test | 20:27 |
de-facto | hence i guess: registered case numbers will drop while real case numbers raise unrestricted | 20:27 |
LjL | de-facto, 22B is BA.5 right? what is 22C? | 20:28 |
de-facto | we would need more restrictions, obviously, since people dont care about the increasing wave, yet we get less restrictions | 20:28 |

de-facto | 22B = Omicron BA.5, and 22C = Omicron BA.2.12.1 | 20:29 |
LjL | oh lord | 20:29 |
LjL | that one is already here? | 20:29 |
LjL | i was just eyeing it about India yesterday | 20:29 |
de-facto | air travel makes any variant available within hours | 20:30 |
LjL | okay but it takes longer to sequence them | 20:30 |
LjL | (at least in countries like ours that don't do a great job of finding and sequencing) | 20:30 |
de-facto | indeed, there are probably a few weeks delay in such sequence data to arrive in trackers from the sample being taken | 20:31 |
de-facto | interestingly most of those have mutations on L252 | 20:35 |
de-facto | https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.05.26.493539v1.full.pdf | 20:35 |
de-facto | "After the global spread of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.2 lineage, some BA.2-related variants that acquire mutations in the L452 residue of spike protein, such as BA.2.9.1 and BA.2.13 (L452M), BA.2.12.1 (L452Q), and BA.2.11, BA.4 and BA.5 (L452R), emerged in multiple countries. " | 20:36 |
de-facto | that was published 26th of May, hence they had quite some time to spread | 20:36 |
de-facto | LjL, have you seen that graph on page 49 of that? | 20:38 |
de-facto | it would suggest that BA.4/5 is almost 20-fold as infective as BA.2 | 20:38 |
de-facto | that would be cRaZy | 20:38 |
de-facto | Figure 3A "Pseudovirus infection" | 20:41 |
LjL | I don't know what to say/do, I can't tell my family to be 20x more careful, even if they're people who realize that the government is downplaying this wave for some reason, they'd laugh at the idea of going back to deliveries-only, disinfecting everything, etc | 20:54 |
de-facto | i mean the pseudovirus infectivity in cell cultures does not directly translate into reproduction numbers or such, but it certainly shows that BA.4/5 got a significant fitness advantage | 20:57 |
de-facto | more fit and more evasive mutant combined with a population investing less care into closing transmission paths certainly does result in increased reproduction and breeding | 20:59 |
