  • Spike proteins in the California 'Epsilon' variant may be able to evade the neutralizing antibodies in Pfizer and Moderna vaccines
  • Effectiveness of vaccines could potentially be reduced by 50 to 70 percent against the strain
  • The findings mean that the vaccines will not be effective in combatting the variant
  • Over 97% of cases of the Epsilon variant have been detected in the U.S., with almost half in California

Variants really mutate so much faster than new vaccines can be developed

but this Epsilon variant so far I think not as transmissible as delta? US cases haven't shoot up yet though. Even if cases shoot up again, If hospitalization and deaths are low they will don't care one haha.

Leave it to darwinism. Rely on innate immunity like Singapore has during first half of last year. None of dorm FW died.

Gambling Queen was still posting that WHO chart about how "effective" Pfizer and Moderna is.

Article say:

"Detections have dropped to near-zero for both strains in the time since."

Mean the virus not spreading like crazy, Heng ah.
