So... Uhh, less deadly then? That is typically how this works. The more contagious the less the death rate/side effects.

Why do you think the common cold does not kill very many people but you get it nearly every year or every other year? It wants to survive, if it kills the host too quickly it dies forever.

Great.. Another variant I won't catch.

I sure am glad that I have robust natural immunity and will almost certainly not even notice that I've come into contact with it.

Doctors will be baffled.

The strain, which is a combination of the KS.1.1 and KP.3.3 variants, causes symptoms that are similar to those you experience with common illnesses such as flu and colds.

Most people will get better within a few weeks, but for others it could take longer to recover and some may even require hospitalisation.

Oh, no! I might catch a cold this winter! (Or I might not. I'm not going to worry about it.)

Wake up Poalers, new scarient is here. Time to not care.

Excess mortality can only get back to pre‐pandemic levels if we all get more vaccines (insurancebusinessmag.com). The reason people are still dying in unusually large numbers is some of you haven’t gotten your CDC recommended 10th shot yet.
