New Covid Variation in Texas is Resistant to Antibodies

GRA: It appears Covid is mutating rapidly and in my opinion, will render the vaccine meaningless, if the mutations continue as they are (why wouldn’t they?).

COLLEGE STATION, Texas (KXAN) — Texas A&M University researchers have identified a new COVID-19 variant that originated in the state.

Scientists at the Texas A&M Global Health Research Complex (GHRC) identified the variant — called BV-1 after Brazos Valley, where it originated — from a saliva sample taken from a student as a part of an ongoing testing program. Researchers believe it’s related to the variant first identified in the United Kingdom.

[But it’s “racist” and "unscientific" to continue calling the Wuhan China Virus after the place it originated.]

The student with the confirmed case showed mild flu-like symptoms for nearly a month, suggesting this new variant may cause a longer than normal infection in young adults. Although only one mild case has been confirmed, researchers are worried that the variant shows resistance to antibodies.

“We do not at present know the full significance of this variant, but it has a combination of mutations similar to other internationally [sic] notifiable variants of concern,” GHRC Chief Virologist Ben Neuman said in a press release. “This variant combines genetic markers separately associated with rapid spread, severe disease and high resistance to neutralizing antibodies.”

There have been five COVID-19 variants confirmed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, but researchers across the world have identified thousands.

According to the CDC, the UK variant is now the most common strain in the United States.

If you want to avoid dying of the Wuhan Virus, take ivermectin--see the testimony by Dr. Pierre Kory in the U.S.Senate: "if you take it, you will not get sick." Of course YouTube took it down because only government propaganda is allowed. But you can find it elsewhere if you search. Also, nearly all those sick enough to be in intensive care had low levels of Vitamin D3. If you are old, fat, dark skinned, or live up north you need to supplement your Vitamin D3. Lifeguards on Florida beaches are probably okay, but most others need to take Vitamin D3 capsules. Of course if you like to gamble, you could take the experimental "vaccine" and hope that the same spike protein which injures the brain, liver, and kidney of Wuhan patients won't bother you when the shot forces your own body to manufacture this spike protein.
