Well, the latest CDC "Nowcast" is out: https://twitter.com/EricTopol/status/1611411421971238914
...which shows the XBB15 share *decreased* from 40% to 28%. It isn't actually going down, instead it is found to be increasing at a lower
rate than previously calculated.
OK, I've learned how this "Nowcast" thingee works. You take all the
data on hand, including the incomplete latest data, and you *project*
it into today's final picture. In other words, a prediction for today instead of the more usual kind of prediction which is for the future.
Another example of "experts" not doing any better than a high school
project would do. Expertise is on the critical list.
Here's another link (smell the panic) about XBB15, labeled the
"Kraken" variant amidst calls for it to be given its own Greek letter:

Let's see how long until our MoH notices this. Not that they should
do anything about it, mind you, it's just another wave crashing onto
our shore, even if a big one. Let it crash.
Actually, there is one thing to do: ban Molnupiravir. Unbelievable
that it was ever marketed, it is so glaringly evil, as explained here:

You'd think this was a super vicious grandma killer with those scary terms >bandied about by the mainstream fucking media.
But no, this is one of the least harmful COVID variants yet. The media and the >panic merchants have no shame.
