Time to buckle up... Iceland finds and deciphers 40 mutations of Covid-19

flice:

...they have been able to map 40 distinct versions of covid-19 on Iceland alone.

If this is true, then it explains the hysteria over the virus. This bugger mutates within the host genome into a different strain, and rapidly so, and will require (probably) a different vaccine for each genetic difference of people.

If they could simply tell us the truth of it all we could follow their orders with more understanding and belief.

A genetics firm in Iceland has been very diligent in mapping their findings when testing people on Iceland for Corona.

Apperently they have been able to map 40 distinct versions of covid-19 on Iceland alone.
They have also succeeded in following the infection chain and found that the original spread started from three seperate clusters:
England, Austria and Italy.

This ofcourse also means finding a vaccine is going to be near impossible.... good luck folks.
Things just got very real.

40 mapped mutations

All viruses do this. Viruses evolve quite quickly by random variations and natural selection. Novel viruses like this Coronavirus almost always evolve in the direction of being less deadly once they are introduced into the population. That’s because viruses need hosts and if they kill the hosts quickly, they don’t get a chance to propagate.

The people who design anti viral drugs and vaccines know this, so they choose characteristics of the virus that can’t change and design the drugs to attack those characteristics.

This article does not contain any bad news.

I won't probably get the vaccine anyway. I would rather get the disease and have my immune system analyze how to kill it which will lead to it always just being another minor pain in the butt bug I have to deal with every year.

Tell it to be quick about it

Can you imagine early America with all the different out breaks of diseases how they must of felt when they quarantined entire towns.

Imagine what it must have been like in the 1600’s when the Black Plague took hold.

All those people on ATS imagining all sorts of underhanded conspiracy theories.

You took our liberty.

I have to work from home.

Don’t throw money at it, it will mutate even further.

It’s the goddamn lefties fault.

Of the people tested who are found to have multiple versions how many died?

Is that why some die and others don’t? Other than pre-existing conditions, are some catching more than one version and have to fight multiple versions at once?

This is the reason why aliens don't come down here because we are virally killing ourselves.

Well slightly. Going back to Oregon Trail days, they
didn't have good medicine or hygiene. And their diet
mostly was salt pork, hard biscuit and whiskey.

Average age of life expectancy was about 40 or so,
many children died upon birth or shortly thereafter.

Healthcare since then has greatly improved, but
apparently not governments way of dealing with a virus.

Kind of like PG&E not maintaining it's infrastructure
for 100 years, then they shut down the grid when
it gets windy for most of California.

Archaic, outdated, and just plain negligent.

Iodine , Vitamin C , Zinc , and Vitamin B12 will Increase your Body's Immune System's ability in Adapting and Eventually Eradicating this Particular Virus from your System . Not much else any of us can do other than Social Distancing for a Undetermined amount of Time .........

That's a good explanation .

No, the wet market where the Chinese Lab employees sold the test animals to for a quick buck.

He probably got infected and didn't know it, and just went to the market each day to get his food.

This virus is like any other virus... They all work the same.

Can we stop pretending it's just a bad flu, or a conspiracy to enact martial law?

If you remove China's forged stats, and look at recovery vs mortality rates of everywhere else in the world combined, its got like a 40% kill rate.

Each and every one of us literally has trillions of bacteria, trillions of viruses, and who knows how many fungi living and co-existing in our bodies. It is called the MicroBiome.

It is not to be feared. Learn how to achieve health. Learn how to support and promote your bodies natural immune system.

That is just absolutely NOT! true
Please provide any actual evidence of this...
Or are you just purposely trying to spread the fearmongering BS like the MSM?

a reply to: flice

However thousands are recovering. So it does not really matter how many strains they have found or will find, the human body is doing a pretty good job of pinging the virus off. Once the body fights it and recovers we become immune and do not pass on the virus once its dead in ourselves.

So with that in mind with the lock down of most people, we are looking at no way for those numbers to grow anymore and those with it that get better, will have a stronger immune system then before.

So this is not even slightly a fear.

The only fear is what the government will do with their new found power.

a reply to: flice

Why would that make it impossible to get a vaccine? Can you quote where the article talks about that?

A difrent virues in 3 country!
sound like they have Made difrent virues for Each country.
we are under attack. good way to cull us?

a reply to: DustybudzZ

It's just raw math and stats.

In Italy there is currently a 45% death rate, 55% recovery rate.
prntscr.com...

In the US (as of moment writing this) we have 1035 closed cases. Of those closed cased, 667 have died.
So US current actual death rate is 65%. 35% have gone on to recover.

China's 4% rate is obviously bull#.
Their actual infected rate also bull#. 21m cellphones went down over the last couple months.
