The Brazil and British variants are here

Dr. Campbell discusses the more dangerous mutation of the Covid virus that happened in Brazil, the P1 variant. It is now spread to 20 other countries.

...

 There have been several mutations of the covid virus, for example, the one ravaging the UK is more infectious but not more lethal.

The bad news: the P1 varient, a mutation that happened in Brazil, is not only much more infectious but it seems to be more lethal because reports say it is killing "low risk" people there. 

Early reports say that the US/European vaccines do prevent this strain (ah, but what about the Chinese vaccine, which the Philippines seems to be buying up instead of alternatives. The Chinese vaccines have a 50 percent prevention rate).

This Brazilian variant has been a real danger because it is spreading in South America and reports from countries there are worrisome. LINK BBC and the NWO blames the president there with only a hint in the middle of the article say it might be due to the new mutation.

and reports from Mexico are now revising their data upward LINK

everyone is pointing fingers at the presidents, but this is absurd: the virus spread here shows that it will spread even if masks etc are used.

Ah, but if you blame the local officials, you don't have to notice where the virus came from, and how a major country allowed it to spread outside the local area and into the world.

Here in the Philippines, we are in the second wave: the British variant (P3) is here and is believed to be more infectious but not more lethal and this might be partly to blame, but now we are seeing reports of the more lethal Brazilian variant too (P1), which could be a real danger.

There is a report with lots of technical details on the various strains and where they are found in this article from the PhilStar.


So how did it get here?


The P.1 variant, which was first detected in four travelers from Brazil in Japan, was detected in a sample taken from a returning oversease Filipino (ROF) with an address in Western Visayas. The ROF came from Brazil, DOH said in a statement.

sigh.

it is a world wide scourge, but don't name the country that let it lose on the world by it's lack of prevention when it was first reported. 

If you name that country, you will be banned by the social media and called out for Asian hatred.

Given the Chinese aggression in the West Philippine sea, one suspects that the pushing of the idea that China will let us get their vaccines in order that locals see China as their "savior", not as an aggressive bully.

And of course the shenanigans in the DOH which is buying the Chinese vaccine but failed to do the paper work to get the US Pfizer vaccine in January (although we might get the Moderna vaccine by May) or the delays is getting the India vaccine, one does wonder.

and given China's aggression against Taiwan and the Philippines, one does wonder how much of the "Anti Asian" stories which are making headlines in the US and elsewhere is part of a deliberate anti American propaganda aimed at America's Asian allies.

 (by the way, the Asian hate crime meme was in our papers over a week before the shooting of the sex workers in the USA... making one think it had something more to do with a deliberate propaganda campaign than with reality, especially since most of the hate crimes against Asians are by other minorities. )

alas, the "side effect" of the MSM promoting propaganda and opinion instead of hard news is that in Europe and the USA people have stopped believing in the media and in the experts advice.

On the other hand, we wear masks religiously here, and we are having another outbreak.

I can't even walk the dog now without both a mask and a face shield, even though I rarely get closer than six feet to anyone when I do so.

Sigh
