AGAIN? Yet Another New Covid-19 Variant Seen in France Has Scientists Worried

Thought we were done with Covid-19 once Omicron passes through? Think again.

A new variant of Covid-19 has been found in southern France, with scientists worried over its record 46 mutations from the original strain. Omicron has 36 mutations from the original strain.

Twelve patients in France have so far tested positive for the new strain, with the first patient having returned from Cameroon, suggesting the variant first arose in the African country.

The variant has officially been dubbed the B.1.640.2 variant, and scientists are racing to find out more about it.

It isn’t yet known whether this variant is more transmissible than even Omicron is, or whether it causes milder or more severe illnesses that previous strains.

    For all those scientists and other non believers out there, about time you came to the realization that you can do absolutely nothing! Nothing, nothing! Hashem is in charge and teshuva, tefilla and tzedoka are the only things we can do. Take note, one and all!

    I actually read that scientists have said not to worry about this variant because it’s been around since before Omicorn and it hasn’t taken off

    And what does Herr Fauci say?
    Mind you, he’s the so-called WORLD EXPERT.

    literally the so called scientists know nothing, they are just agents of the government trying to shut down our lives.

    The RS”H set this in motion and then left to tend to other matters in the universe.

    Never fear, whoever gets booster #5 will not get that new variant like they don’t get covid now due to the shots which work incredibly well…lol.

    I don’t understand understand the fixation and fear mongering over all the variants that constantly evolve. B”H they are evolving into milder strains but will likely be around in the near future like many other viruses are around practically for as long as we have recorded medical history about them.

    justasec > teshuva, tefilla and tzedoka are the only things we can do.

    I absolutely agree, and according to sources, Jews should be the first to do that. Instead of teshuva, we often see people behaving inappropriately and making fun of those who are trying to do something. What options does Hashem have then? The moment He is turning towards forgiving us, letznei hador are saying – see, we told you, it is (finally) a flu and will kabed es libam. Let’s not trap the Creator into this.

    @Swings
    No, Hashem never leaves tending part of the world. He is always focusing on the whole world, and will never stop. How can he be at one place at the same time? Hashem isn’t human.
