// // every variant gets weaker //
Really ?
this is a AB - meme spread mainly by TTT and NJ
no variants do NOT usually get weaker then get stronger
this is an exception and cannot be relied on
but hey so what - this is AB
The cases in Gauteng ( NOT comparable as 1) undervaccinated 2) mainly young and 3) unknown level of HIV ) have taken off
as one wd expect if the omicron had an R of 3
so lots and lots of cases even if they have a lower rates of hospitalisation, if there are enough, can overwhelm a health system (*)
(*) this effect: that if you have a high risk pool but the numbers are small, and a low risk pool but lots! and a lower infection ratio - - then most cases appear in the low risk category - if that catefory is large enough
is contrary to intuition, but seen first in HIV in the early eighties and causes chaos.
capeeshy? nope, and it probably that no one in the Cabinet does as well. ( all modern linguists and classicists)
