    If TWIV does a program on this,I'll post the link.

    “We don’t want to scare anybody and say this is a completely vaccine-resistant virus,” Letko says. “But it is concerning that there are viruses circulating in nature that have these properties—they can bind to human receptors and are not so neutralized by current vaccine responses.”

    The good news is that Letko’s studies show that, like the Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2, Khosta-2 does not seem to have genes that would suggest it could cause serious disease in people. But that could change if Khosta-2 starts circulating more widely and mixing with genes from SARS-CoV-2. “

    Of course it was found in Russia. Last time it was found in China, a country that was in the crosshairs of politicians at that time.

      Of course that's a coincidence, it's not like they are suddenly studying viruses from Russia, are they?

        The coincedence serves the politicians and media quite well in their scapegoating countries for everything that's going wrong in this beautiful world. ;-)
