SEATTLE (KOMO) — State health officials Monday said BA.2, the newest variant of COVID-19, has been detected in Washington state, which is still grappling with a surge in cases from the omicron and delta variants.

A representative for the Washington State Health Department said in an email that the state has already logged two confirmed cases of the newest variant, which were found earlier this month.

It's too early to tell if we are going to see more cases of this variant," said health department representative Shelby Anderson. "So far, fewer than 100 confirmed BA.2 cases in the U.S. have been reported.

According to the World Health Organization, the newest variant of the coronavirus has been reported across the globe and is spreading fast.

The health organization said BA.2 was first discovered in December and has been difficult to detect.

Gov. Jay Inslee has activated dozens of officers of the Washington State National Guard to help mobilize treatment for patients suffering from the omicron variant, which has proven to be more infectious but not as lethal as the delta variant.

Officials have not yet said how the BA.2 variant will compare to the omicron and delta variants in terms of its lethality or ability to sicken the infected.

Health officials have also not said publicly how much protection the COVID vaccines will provide for those who get the BA.2 variant.

meh. I don't care. I had covid first week of this year. sort of like a cold with a low-grade fever, which I slept through, though I did take extra vitamins, along with IVM, HCQ and Zinc. My blood vitamin D is in the 70s or 80s.

Nothing I took seemed to make much difference. I had a positive rapid test. I slept through most of it, which is my general reaction to being sick.

It was big nothing burger, and I'm 67, fat, and diabetic.

I'm glad it waited until (probably) Omicron to get me, I've been living as if it didn't exist (as much as possible in Illinois) since October 2020.

Variant, scariant, I don't care, everything the "authorities" and "experts" tell us is bullshit. Once again: meh

Dr. Campbell on YouTube a few days ago said this variant is only a 'variant of interest' at this point and was very unlikely to spread widely or replace Omicron.

The MSM and MSDR(mainstream doctors) are pushing a lot of disinformation with this one on how the immune system works with vaccines and their relationship with Anti-bodies. They're going full 3rd world witch doctor with their lack of understanding science.

Just watch for the word Super Immunity in these articles.

Great......now the wine-making lobby has joined in the conspiracy.


What’s next, the Pipefitters Union ?



:gaah:
Oh, I don’t know.
The compound in red wine has been known for a very long time as being good for people.
Resvesterol, I’m pretty sure is the active “enzyme “, isn’t it?

There are actually supplements of it you can take without drinking wine.

edit for proper spelling Resveratrol

Agreed.


I’m just likely rather at the peak of my morning coffee high.


It’ll begin to wane, before long.

To my understanding that is correct psychgirl. It is good for high cholesterol. But I think we might all need a glass of the real thing right about now!

I’d be happy to oblige!
But not until we find out what is going on with me and what medications I’ll need.
** details not given in this thread, too much would derail.

Licking a section of properly-heated PVC every morning can reduce your chances of dying from Covid-19 by as much as three percent, assures my dog Roger.

I just saw an insider report, not yet approved for publishing, that if a cluster of people who test positive for COVID or ANY variant will be mandatory for the group to quarantine together wearing only their underwear and REQUIRED BY LAW to play Twister at THREE TIMES THE NORMAL SPEED
WHILE DRINKING RED WINE
to FULLY OVERWHELM their immune systems and let God sort out the rest!

I just heard local Fox 5 morning news talking about "new research that indicates that one glass of red wine a day may keep COVID away".

Nope... it's the Resveratrol in the wine. Its a potent anti viral.. Pinot Noir has the most Resveratrol, and if alcohol is a no-no for you, purple grape juice contains some.
