China - Omicron XE

This is a copy of a what's app message a mate sent me.

Big Man, they've locked us down again, *****. We thought COVID was over, either their vaccines are dogshite or we have a serious cunting new strain or both. When this lockdown is over we're coming back to blighty. **** this! Loads of ex-pats have ****ed off, most of Sally's friends in her class at school. **** money bro, quality of life has to come first. Hope you and the family are doing good, I'd rather it was 1991 and we were back in Kuwait than this. Cunting China!

So where is this variant occurring, big man?

Got this in the night last night. I'm really tired myself today, unrelated work stress and my wife's ill so I'm babysitting her the kids and everyone. I was surprised, Covid isn't a thing in Nigeria now... It will return. I read afterwards Chinese vaccines are indeed poop.

I didn't see it was in the UK.

Really? My colleagues elderly parents in Pakistan got one of the Chinese vaccines. They both caught Covid (pre-Omicron), but they both only got mildly ill.

Almost 1,300 cases of a new variant of Covid have been found in the UK, according to new figures released by the UK Health Security Agency on Friday. 1,293 cases of V-22APR-02 have been found in England and one has been found in Northern Ireland, according to UKHSA.

The new variant has been recorded on the UKHSA update for the first time. V-22APR-02 is the UK's official designation for a variant previously named Omicron XE.

it's probably everywhere, u.s. included. made a typo, but i'm pretty sure this will be known as "Omicron Xi"

I didn't know that, you don't think it's all kicking off again do you?

So... summer lockdown?

I hope as bash says it's just China overreacting. I don't know, Jaden or Adam will have read up on this.

Hopefully, I think it is China overreacting. Unfortunately, the news is probably going to tackle this and the loonies are going to spread nonsense regardless of the official story.

Yup, my thoughts having read a couple of stories about this.

There was a recent uptick in new cases in the us, maybe that was why. Can't tell for sure until a couple of weeks, but so far it's nothing huge

I'll give it a month.

My fingers are crossed, I do not need more travel bans etc.

According to an epidemiological update published March 29 by the World Health Organization, estimates show XE is 10% more transmissible than BA.2, however the findings require further confirmation.
