Run, Hide, a new COVID Variant. Just when you thought it was safe to come out.
As the United States enters respiratory virus season and health officials roll out updated COVID-19 vaccines, a new COVID variant HV.1 has emerged and is currently sweeping the country.
The new omicron subvariant has rapidly overtaken other strains, including EG.5 aka Eris, to become the dominant variant in the U.S. As of late October, HV.1 is responsible for more than a quarter of all COVID-19 cases, and health officials are monitoring the new variant amid concerns of a winter COVID-19 surge.
HV.1 accounted for an estimated 25.2% of new COVID-19 cases during the two-week period ending Oct. 28, according to the latest data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
So, my friends you can go and get another booster shot and hope you don't get sick, hospitalized, or die. or be part of the 25% who didn't get the shot or die. Or be like me took one and done or stopped all together taking the jab.
