Here is information from ABC News (USA) where it explains COVID-19 has dozens of variants and some come and go Click here . It explains the following:
In these stressful new living times, we have to be told how to live our lives. Are these rules fair? Well, we will look at the 2 sides of the coin.
- The delta variant is more contagious than earlier strains of COVID
- It could cause more serious illness in unvaccinated persons, but scientists don't know for sure.
- Delta is now the dominant variant in the US and around the globe.
- COVID vaccines still work against the delta variant.
My understanding is that the Delta Strain was brought into the country with passengers that came with the Australian Cricketers or just before that period. Although the Australian Prime Minister has been ridiculed Click here for not bringing these players back into Australia quick enough, we have to understand it was the individual choices of the Australian Cricketers that made them decide to travel to India to play in the IPL.
The Delta variant was called Indian variant before and changed name to the Delta variant of COVID-19 Click here for details. That sounds interesting why wasn't the original COVID-19 called Chinese COVID-19 where it originated from? Most probably that it is was named scientifically not to aim fingers to blame.
One thing that I don't understand is the press and governments providing negative names for situations. For example:
- 'Lockdown - really means being 'COVID-19 Homesafe',
- 'Covid-19 Check In' to 'COVID-19 Contract Trace Results'
- 'Restrictions' to 'Staying safer and well-being guidelines',
- 'Covid-19' Test' to ' COVID-19 - Checkup'
- 'Social Distancing' to 'Area of Personal Socialising
- 'QR Code' to ' 'Public Records Code'
- ' Contract Tracing' to 'Investigating Incident History'
HOMESAFE - 'Outbreak Cases' to ' Number of people affected'
- 'Currently Hospitalised' to 'Currently in recovery process'
- 'Active Cases' to 'Alive Cases'
- 'Locally acquired' to 'Within the region, area, State or Country'
- 'Vaccinated' to 'immunised'
