Been following the situation closely and still no clear data on any of the 3 metrics outlined below. My guess is 10-14 days before we have a clear picture.

@devisridhar Will keep checking in with you, Devi. One of my main go-to's for accurate and clear inormation.
@devisridhar I’m sure someone with your integrity wouldn’t want to give anyone the impression you developed those three metrics. They’ve been around for years.
@devisridhar SInce when has transmissability of any Covid variant been definitvely measured? What lab data has been produced to categorise it? Or is it a case of when NPU's fail to acheive the SAGE/Indie SAGE outcomes it's becuase a given strain is asserted as "more transmissable"?
@devisridhar Thanks Devi , Have a Nice Day 👍
@devisridhar Well the ceo of Moderna is guessing now, no prices for guessing what that billionaire thinks.
@devisridhar Dear Prof, should I hold off getting the booster, until the efficacy of the current Pfizer jab is confirmed against the new strain Omnicron.
@devisridhar The variant was discovered not because it was harming people, but because relatively speaking it wasn’t. The only question is vaccine escape and virulence on the vulnerable. If vaccines are relatively effective and this is more transmissible, this variant might be good news
@devisridhar By then it will be to late and it will have seeded itself
@devisridhar Lets hope this variant is indeed hugely transmissible but mild for all. Vaccination could become a distant memory and it all dissapears as fast as it arrived
