You have anything on the new variant which is apparently becoming dominant in India? Much the same as existing ones? I can't believe there will be much fuss about it this winter.Nothing much to report, except those who are eligible will start getting their Spring booster appointments from today.
77 positive inpatients.
1 positive in ITU.
Average 50-60 admissions a week.

Can't hear the word Arcturus without thinking about Hank Scorpio in the Simpsons.Currently not causing severe disease...... Arcturus is its "name".
Known pathologically as XBB.1.16 its a new sub-variant that resulted from the combination of BA.2.10.1 and BA.2.75, with a shared mutation also found in XBB.1.5. (Omicron)
Seems more transmissible and has already been found in the UK.
Nothing much more.
I have just tested negative , tested positive on 31st March, test reported at 8.00, antivirals courier from JR by 8.30pm, finished those by the following Wed, a week later strong positive test, 6 days later negative. This is quite common so I read, I had 2 days when I felt as rough as when I was undergoing Chemotherapy, for the rest of the it felt like I was full of snot all the time, I don’t want to get this again
Mines next week at Boots, before the Cheltenham game.Got my booked for early May.
Now changed to tomorrow between 11.00am and mid-day. You have to love the NHSI have mine booked for early May and no, I'm not aged over 75, just have a immune system that's shot to bits/knackered. Thank you NHS
Footnote - 4 out of 9 from MrsEY(Mk2)`s office have tested positive.
Its 4 out of 5 who went to a conference a few days ago.
Guess which 1 hasn`t tested positive and never did even when I had it?
Yep - Superwoman!
Just as a complete aside....

Given all our politicians speak out the ar$e, then quite probably.
