New COVID strain, 70% easier to spread.

I wonder how the vaccine and other things will be affected by this variant.

Boy, now what do we do? Masks won't stop it now! Everyone has to hold their breath for at least 14 days, that ought to help.

The whole thought process behind their claim is complete rubbish (as the Brits would say). We have no concrete spread data on the original strain or we would know how to stop it dead and someone is supposed to believe they have a second strain figured.....

Justlied is banning flights from UK ....

BREAKING: Trudeau announces “new variant” of COVID in UK, cancels flights starting tonight
https://www.rebelnews.com/trudeau_an...arting_tonight
At midnight tonight, and for the next 72 hours, all flights from the UK will be prohibited from entering Canada. Passengers who arrived today are subject to secondary screening and enhanced measures. More on the actions we’re taking to protect you



I wonder if the promised screening is the same one they did for months at the beginning of the year... hand out a piece of paper or nothing.

If it mutated stopping air traffic won't change it lol.

Didn't they say months ago that it already changed to this ?

Well, there is a positive side Ha..

Not totally a bad thing...the faster this virus spreads, the more people will get it, recover and the quicker the population will have herd immunity..Protect the vulnerable and weak and let the virus run it's course, then it'll be over before spring.

If you don't want to take a chance, then stay home, distance yourself and wash your hands. If you don't care, head to Costco...

Why do we need the government to make these choices for us.

Sweden is being punished by a 2nd wave. After 8 months of no measures. No saying I disagree, just pointing that out.

Cure is almost without question worse than the disease.

Outside of LTCs
around 3,500 CDNs have lost their lives.

New virus strain discovered in UK.

I noticed the media has been told to call it a 'variant' not a new strain...preferably they should use the word 'mutated' but then the general public will lose their minds Haha..

Well do you know how Governments define a variant? No me neither.

But they are telling me my single shot Savage Rascal in 22 Calibre is a Variant of a machine gun because it has a plastic stock...
