but the Indian variant is 75% of all current COVID cases. I bet that changes on Monday to the Thai variantWere on the Thai variant now aren't we after the Indian government demanded proof and virus isolation evidence that the "Indian" variant came from India?
No doubt let people fly in from Vietnam for another 10 daysNew hybrid one detected in Vietnam
Apparently more transmissible in the air, has characteristics of the Kent and Indian variantNo doubt let people fly in from Vietnam for another 10 days
They will no doubt be telling us to hold our breath every 90 seconds for 10 seconds unless you are wearing scuba gear in the woods.Apparently more transmissible in the air, has characteristics of the Kent and Indian variant
Do you understand what a 0.3% difference could mean with a virus?Have you noticed as well that the media never reports on tweaking of vaccines to counter this variants nor do they ever go into the variation percentages compared to previous strains of the virus. The genomic sequence of the Indian varian is less than 0.3% different to the original strain from Wuhan. Yet variants are massively blown out of proportion as if it is some kind of new virus that evades all vaccines and treatments.
There will be thousands of variants out there, and if the media keeps plucking ones out of the air, they’ll do nothing but scare swathes of the population into hiding at home. There are even memes on social media of how ridiculous it is becoming. The BBC in particular have been nothing but a disgrace in instilling fear, especially throughout these past couple of months as things have been unlocking, vaccine rollout gathers pace and breakthroughs in new treatments.

Or a big Indian Covid surge in Porto, probably more irresponsible for them to let in Brits especially those coming from the Greater Manchester area.There has always been a big link between Brazil and Portugal due to the language. Hopefully it wont happen but wouldn’t surprise us would it?
I hadn't realised it was transmitted through the TVKent, Yorkshire, South African, Indian, Brazilian - there’ll be hundreds of thousands of them but it’s the same bloody virus ffs with a tiny variation. Switch the bloody tv off an give yourself a break from it !
