I like the Dr. Angelique Coetzee pronunciation: “extremely mild”

This latest apocalyptic headline opportunity reminds me of this nature.com article from last year:

We shouldn’t worry when a virus mutates during disease outbreaks - Nature Microbiology

Mutation. The word naturally conjures fears of unexpected and freakish changes. Ill-informed discussions of mutations thrive during virus outbreaks, including the ongoing spread of SARS-CoV-2. In reality, mutations are a natural part of the virus life cycle and rarely impact outbreaks dramatically.

so it's cloaking itself to not be detected by antibody with the extra spindles on the spindles.

it's making the effort to continue.

Don't yell at them like robroy. Will get you way further.

I think the one here does require registering online, not much wait though, but I could see how they are just full and backlogged. When I went they were doing groups of 10 in about 10 minutes. It was pretty efficient. I would give it at least a 50% chance of being able to sweet talk your way in early. Say you want to see your kids/grandkids or something.
