Title: CDC: New COVID Variant KP.3 On The Rise Across The US

A newly discovered COVID-19 variant, KP.3, is rising to become the dominant strain of the virus across the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

KP.3 constitutes about 25 percent of all COVID-19 cases detected by the agency. It’s followed by the KP. 2 and LB. 1 variants, which make up about 22 percent and 14 percent of all cases, respectively, the data show.

The latest COVID-19 data were collected over a two-week period from May 26 to June 8. Some media outlets have referred to both the KP.2 and KP.3 variants as “FLiRT,” due to where spike proteins are located.

The Epoch Times contacted the CDC for comment on June 12.

“CDC predicts that KP.3 is growing and will become the most common SARS- CoV-2 lineage nationally,” a CDC spokesperson told several news outlets this week about the variant’s dominance. “CDC is working to better understand its potential impact on public health.”

But the data suggest that despite the increase in the KP.3 variant’s prevalence, the U.S. is currently seeing low levels of COVID-19 activity overall.

A CDC graph of COVID-19’s historic trends shows that weekly deaths are at the lowest point since the pandemic started in early 2020. Virus- linked hospitalizations are also at their lowest point, the data show.

“Most key COVID-19 indicators are showing low levels of activity nationally, therefore the total number of infections this lineage may be causing is likely low,” the CDC spokesperson said.

Andy Pekosz, a molecular microbiology professor at Johns Hopkins University, said that the KP.2 and KP.3 variants do not appear to be more or less severe than prior COVID-19 strains. Instead, most people have COVID-19 antibodies either through a previous infection or vaccines.

“The period of infectiousness for these FLiRT variants remains the same as with JN.1 and previous omicron variants: After exposure, it may take five or more days before you develop symptoms, though symptoms may appear sooner,” he said in a question and answer session that was published on the university’s website.

“You are contagious one to two days before you experience symptoms and a few days after symptoms subside. And as with previous variants, some people may have detectable live virus for up to a week after their symptoms begin, and some may experience rebound symptoms.”

COVID-19 Reports No Longer Required
Last month, the CDC said that hospitals will no longer have to report COVID-19-related hospital admissions, hospital capacity, or related information. The changes went into effect on May 1.

The old “data will be archived as of May 10, 2024, and available at United States COVID-19 Hospitalization Metrics by Jurisdiction, Timeseries,” according to a statement posted on the CDC website at the time.

But the agency still encouraged medical facilities to report COVID-19 hospitalizations and related information to the federal health agency.

“A key lesson we learned from the COVID-19 pandemic is the importance of having reporting systems in place before an active emergency,” a CDC spokesperson said.

“These data have a significant and ongoing value for protecting patient health and safety as well as public health,” the statement added.

A U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) panel, which authorized every previous COVID-19 vaccine that has been on the market, voted this past week to manufacture new booster shots to target strains derived from the JN.1 variant, which include KP.2 and KP.3.

A survey released earlier this year said that one in five Americans believe COVID-19 is a “major threat” to the U.S. population, a sharp decline from a high of 67 percent in the summer of 2020.

New COVID Variant KP.3 On The Rise Across The US

I would be quite comfortable stating that it is ONLY the vaxxed who are getting sick from it.

At 4um or where you live? I've only 'heard' about one person dying of Covi, Marla said they were about 90 or something.

Yup, my buddy Rainman got Covi real bad after being vaxxed. Him and his wife has the vaxmentia so bad, I won't go over to see them anymore. Last time I was there was Memorial Day. When I got home, his wife sent me a text saying, "If you ever come over here again, I'll have you arrested for trespassing."

I have no idea what that was about.

Wow. Whatever they put into those shots is certainly making a lot of people go nuts.

Yeah. She went and doubled down on it with a second text out of the blue a week later that Doc saw last weekend. Kimmy warned me to stay away. She thinks it's mRNA psychosis or dementia.

My 68 y/o sister up by Chicago is starting to have several mystery health problems all of the sudden. She had to have a biopsy done of a growth under her tongue not long ago, no results yet, balance and dizziness problems that she had to be taken to the emergency room for, and she told me this morning that she's having some mental clarity problems lately. She damaged her car by hitting some of those construction barrels recently from the dizziness.

I'll see Kimmy tonight and see if she knows anything, but I doubt it. She was forced to take the shots in the beginning to keep her job. I hope she doesn't die in my house when her number is up.

Happens.

I'm close to her age. Just the other day I was rolling a hay bale out of storage to be picked up with the tractor. Was slightly uphill and I leaned into it. Woke up in the grass with my sunglasses broken.

My brother the doctor thinks I held my breath, tightened all my muscles, and the blood just didn't get upstairs. Age has a lot to do with it. Walking helps circulation. Blood flow helps with dizziness and clarity.

no results yet

This is unacceptable. The dems destroyed health care under Obama. My brudder spends more time trying to find the right procedure codes for insurance than he does treating patients. Apparently not every procedure fits neatly under one of the codes. Doctors are bailing out because the investment in medicine does not have a good return.

Hoping your sister can navigate the ruined health care system.

Not at 4um. He is buried where I live but the undertaker was up north a ways. ;)
