But the ones who are vulnerable and most likely to die have.

That is a thought but I doubt you'll find a cite saying it is directly caused by a severely compromised immune systems.

Gives an account the patient showed that the virus evolved rapidly after being given convalescent plasma.


This article:

Highlights it is the number and duration of infection that increase likelihood of mutation; "With almost every person it infects, the virus changes very subtly ? picking up a letter in its genetic code here, another being deleted there or swapped for something different."

That’s not true, it still isnt clear who many of the vulnerable and most likely to die are.

Fraid so.

That’s not something that common at all so isnt likely to have been the cause of most variants.

That’s mindless bullshit. There arent that many variants.

Just more s*it from some arts graduate like that other steaming turd you waved around from the New Scientist.

They are clearly recruiting those who can write clear and error free english but don’t have any way of weeding out those who wouldn’t know what logic or analytical thought was if it bit them on their collective lard arses.

That's show your lack of knowledge. Most mutations will fail in one way or another. The most successful mutation is one that doesn't kill the host and lives indefinitely in the body.

Don't you like being shown you're wrong?

Bullshit.

Yes, but if they fail quickly, there would be no way to know that stupid claim.

We havent seen any like that with this virus.

You're projecting now given that you never had the balls to admit that that New Scientist steaming turd you waved around proved you wrong. Same with the virus in Sweden.

There are coronaviruses that are mere colds. So no reason to create a vaccine against them and they are free to propagate without lockdowns or anything sinister.

Hardly a turd, it was an example of a mutation that occurred indirectly through a compromised immune system. I don't see how one example changes the validity of my post. However much you might wish otherwise.

We have a choice, accept an article in the New Scientist or a senile phool in Australia posting to a UK newsgroup. Tough one isn't it?

That's right, you didn't understand the meaning of 'rate'.

I read that quote and immediately distrust the article.

The code is sets of 3 letters. If you delete one then you scramble the rest of it - you have to delete (or insert) a multiple of 3.

Deletions and insertions are rare compared with substitutions.

Irrelevant to what we are discussing there.

Both very rarely happens.

That’s what normally happens.

The steaming turd was the New Scientist article about how the qwerty keyboard came about.

That s*it you posted does.

The problem is with the content of that steaming turd NS quote, not who wrote it, you pathetic excuse for a bullshit artist.

You never could bullshit and lie your way out of a wet paper bag.

Oh dear, you haven't suffered another lost argument

Another sign of a lost argument, you're not doing very well these days.

So yer a virologist now as well as a bighead?
