China Corona Virus Outbreak

baka natuto nah.
less info released, less media hype.

i guess

maybe the authorities think including the sublineage is unnecessary information for the public

basta omicron pwede na

nakakapagtaka ung PH genome center / DOH don't mention BA2 sublineage mga ormicron natin

BA.2: Government scientists monitoring new variant of Omicron

The fact BA.1 lacked the S-gene was key to detecting and tracking the spread of Omicron early on.

BA.2 is spreading quickly in places like India and the Philippines, and early signs show it is growing in the UK, Germany and Denmark.

This indicates it may be more transmissible than BA.1, but so far there is no conclusive evidence, experts warn.

There is no evidence on if BA.2 is more or less severe than other variants of COVID-19.

Tom Peacock, a virologist at Imperial College London, said the earliest indications from Denmark and India "suggest there is no dramatic difference in severity compared to BA.1".

Peacock also said: "There is likely to be minimal differences in vaccine effectiveness against BA.1 and BA.2."

He pointed to the fact several nations, including the UK, appear to be past their Omicron peaks and said he thinks it would be surprising if BA.2 caused another surge.

However, as almost all knowledge of Omicron on based on the BA.1 variant, there are uncertainties regarding BA.2.

The UKHSA said the government "continues to monitor variants including the BA.2 variant of Omicron (which is S-gene target positive). There is currently no evidence of BA.2 having a faster growth rate than the now widespread BA.1 variant."

since ba2 ang omicron natin we have nothing to worry about --> we already saw what it can do (mild covid)

wag lang OA ang gobyerno natin ngayon lumabas na sa western media ang ba2

this is something

we're used to conservatives/trumpists/far-right speaking out against the mainstream covid narrative

normal na yun

but when liberals are breaking away from the narrative... it's really something

All recently diagnosed local COVID-19 cases have been asymptomatic or experienced only cold-like symptoms, Taiwan Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Deputy Director-General Philip Lo (羅一鈞), who is also deputy chief of the Central Epidemic Command Center’s (CECC) medical response division, said on Saturday (Jan. 22).

According to the CDC official, preliminary investigations revealed that the most common symptoms among these patients were a sore throat (55%), followed by a cough (42%), fever (27%), and runny nose (15%) —symptoms also caused by the common cold. Some of the cases reportedly thought they had a cold before being diagnosed, per CNA.

Unvaccinated people infected with the Omicron variant are less likely to fall seriously ill, require hospitalization or die compared to the previous COVID-19 variants, a South African study showed on Friday.

It found that 8 percent of patients were hospitalized or died within 14 days of testing positive for COVID during the Omicron wave — compared to the 16.5 percent in the first three waves.

“After adjusting for age, ***, comorbidities and subdistrict there was a substantially reduced hazard of death in wave four compared to wave three,” the study said.

The study, which is yet to be peer-reviewed, found about a quarter of the reduced risk of severe disease with Omicron was attributable to characteristics of the virus itself.

“In the Omicron-driven wave, severe COVID-19 outcomes were reduced mostly due to protection conferred by prior infection and/or vaccination, but intrinsically reduced virulence may account for an approximately 25 percent reduced risk of severe hospitalization or death compared to Delta,” researchers said.

Only 27 percent of South Africa’s population are fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

The South African study echoes one released by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention earlier this week that Omicron poses a “substantially reduced risk” of serious illness compared to Delta.

The US-backed study found Omicron is more than 90 percent less likely to kill those infected with the virus.

Going down as fast as it went up...

5433 today in the NCR, just 18% of the national number. The actuals are tracking lower than projections. I already have recalibrated projections but will continue to reference the Jan 20 projections

Going down as fast as it went up...

This is great news so we can expect alert level 2 by mid february or even earlier.

magkano ba kinikita ngayon ni leachon, salvana, the two guido, dr limpin.

Ngayon pandemic lumabas pagka useless ng medical community.

Kagabi sa fisher mall may nakasabay pa ako nakarespirator mask at sa sintureras nakasabit spray alcohol. Tingin nya hospital ang mall puro pautot. Ganyan pag mahihinang- nilalang.

the traditional non-covid illnesses still exist and continue to plague humankind.
so my guess is, "they're still earning".

guido is not an MD. so i don't know.

PPE is a personal thing if there are no enforcers.
we all know what's right.
my guess is, if we all thought as conscientiously as how this respirator'ed person appears to be,
we'd have a lot less covid around.

the nucleocapsid doesn't change as much as the spike

Combining spike- and nucleocapsid-based vaccines improves distal control of SARS-CoV-2 - PubMed
I agree and got the above info… sept-2021 why the vac manufacturer still not mentioning about nucleospasid esp for the mRNA.

It discovered that people that consumed five or more glasses of red wine per week were up to 17 per cent less likely to be at risk from the virus, when compared to non-drinkers.

Scientists said that the reduced risk could be the result of the drink’s high polyphenol content, which can inhibit the likes of the flu and other respiratory conditions.

But it was bad news for pint lovers, as those who drank any amount of beer and cider were at increased risk of 28 per cent from Covid when compared to non-drinkers.

People who drank five glasses of spirits or more per week was also said to increase the risk from Covid.

Drinking red wine could help fight the risk from Covid infection, study finds

Bilis ng baba sa NCR... even Guido David had to lower expectation...

Before DOH figure came out

Expecting 28 to 32k new cases today January 24 2022, I think 30k is likely. I am also expecting 4.5 to 5k in the NCR.

*iamguidodavid
4018 in the NCR today close to revised expectations. We could have less than 3k tomorrow. Actuals still tracking below Jan 20 projections. At this rate we could have less than 1000 per day by first week of February.
