Aug 22

We have a new COVID-19 variant—BA.2.86—turning heads even among the calm, cool, and collected scientists.

This is what we know, what we don’t know, and what’s likely next.
What is happening?

SARS-CoV-2 continues to mutate.

"As news reports on infections increase, we must remember that we are no longer in a Covid emergency: we are in a phase of management, and the difference between crisis and non-crisis must be made clear in public messaging. There is a risk to crying wolf too many times."

in wastewater in my county just spiked this past week.

We're up to about a third of the huge wave back in 2021/22.

It's double what it was a week or so ago.

No idea if anyone is testing sequencing to see if this is or , the new rising variant.

I'm constantly amazed at our incompetence for handling things that can actually make us sick and die.
