The same mutations were observed in Brazil in April. The vast majority of the time, mutations which occur in RNA viruses (which is often, due to the lack of proofreading in the enzymes transcribing the code) are either unremarkable or deleterious to the virus. They will hype this like it's bubonic plague 2.0.

They were interviewing the US Surgeon General yesterday...he said we are very capable of handling this as we have been dealing with flu stains doing this every year...this is when you know the whole thing is a scam and they think they are close enough to turn the world upside down. It's a flu strain and acts like the flu...go figure.

Lot of projecting ITT.

Yes there is...projecting that a flu strain will mutate (several times) over a year...I am also projecting that you cannot hide from a virus...and you cannot control it, you can only try and protect the most vulnerable, something we lost sight in the early days of the outbreak and we have doubled down daily since.

A banking buddy of mine, past President of RMA (they are the Risk people) believes that it will take at least two years to climb out of this hole...if Biden does all of the right things. He gives him 18 months for policy to turn it around....two more years of a bad economy does put into play many of the things the dims want...
