It would appear that the new variant is already within our shores, lockdown by Xmas is becoming a real possibility, if it is correct how troublesome this variant is the figures we keep seeing will make what has gone before look good.

Up to a third of patients with covid were admitted with other health issues and contracted covid in hospital.

Up to 90% of patients with covid in ICU on respirators have not been vaccinated.

We're not actually doomed.

There is a very good chance this variant could save us all.
