COVID-19 News: With the current COVID-19 crisis emerging to be more bleak despite concealments and cover ups by government and health authorities and fake news dissemination by mainstream media like the BBC and members of its ‘Trusted News’ Initiative, the WHO has issued new guidelines for the COVID-19 pandemic including masking and a isolation period of 10 days for those that are infected. https://www.who.int/news/item/13-01-2023-who-updates-covid-19-guidelines-on-masks--treatments-and-patient-care
Unknown to many, death rates are increasing in many countries not just China but also in Japan, United States, Sweden, United Kingdom, Australia etc while authorities are finding more and more strategies conceal real COVID-19 statistics.
Daily infection figures in some countries seems low due to inadequate testing but hospitalization, mortality and excess deaths are painting a contradicting view of what authorities are reporting!
While the XBB.1.5 variant is competing with the BQ and CH sub-lineages in many countries, even the newer BQ sub-lineages are fighting back and evolving to spawning even sub-lineages with interesting mutations on them! https://github.com/cov-lineages/pango-designation/issues/1560
Reports and studies have also surfaces showing that drug resistance mutations against Paxlovid are also emerging in various new subvariants and sub-lineages.
Any idiot who looks at the current kinetics of the COVID-19 pandemic can easily see that we are in very critical and vulnerable situation that is likely to get far worse. We still however have morons saying that the pandemic is over and that we are entering an endemic phase, and that we have to learn to live with the SARS-CoV-2 virus that they claim is getting ‘milder’ and that the current shots and boosters can protect against disease severity and risk of mortality! (Though we are seeing that it is not the least the case!)
The global situation is expected to worsen in the next few weeks with a peak reaching sometime in late February but even then, there will only be a short respite as more new variants and sub-lineages are expected to replace the current predominant ones.
