I just got updated? info about COVID19, from a livestreaming seminar (for my CE) that I have been taking early this morning, from Mayo clinic in Minnesota.

New varaiants alert; Deltacron and XE.
XE, especially.
Its growth rate is 10% higher than BA.2, stealth omicron, which was already 50% more transmissible than Omicron. Evidence of community spread by XE within England.

(Omicron’s R0 is 12, which was already among the worst in any transmission. Only one monoclonal antibody, Bebtelovimab, is effective against Omicron.)

And, the 2nd booster is only 6-8 weeks effective, according to Israeli studies, although still better to receive it, if can. (As I already posted days ago, its benefits are relatively very marginal.)

Aloha.
