I don’t think this is real. “deltacron” isn’t a greek letter and viri can’t combine like that.

I mean its not that uncommon, though you are right that such a drift of genetic material would also have a hard time reconstituting itself into a new virus. Virus produce so many copies of themselves within our bodies that genetic drift is going to happen; If you flip a coin a trillion times youre going to have a couple of strings of 100 head results in a row.

:marx-joker: Not even kidding here, but all these variants are just never going to end in the foreseeable future huh? I read that some researchers from Texas released a patent-free vaccine for the world to use. That is a huge step, cause while the US (among other countries) have donated something like 300k vaccines, it’s still not coming out fast enough. Not even sure if fully vaccinating the world will completely stop new variants though, but at least it shouldn’t be as deadly.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
