How much should people worry about Covid’s newly-dominant XBB.1.5 variant? Our medical analyst explains

A new Covid-19 variant, XBB.1.5, is spreading rapidly throughout the United States. In December 2022, the proportion of new Covid-19 infections due to this Omicron offshoot have increased from 4% to 18%, according to a January 6 release from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and is projected to rise further still. In some parts of the country, it constitutes more than half of all new infections. According to the World Health Organization, XBB.1.

And on January 6, the agency issued a statement that the preventive antibody Evusheld may be ineffective against XBB.1.5. On a policy level, it’s critical there are urgent investments into better treatments. There are many people vulnerable to severe outcomes due to Covid-19, and we need to have a wider range of effective treatments available for them.

The correct answer is not at all

No point in worrying without acting. Authorities are determined to spread it and taking no action to erradicate it as they used to with all previous killer diseases. It's doing the job it was made for. Cutting down the population of elderly and frail people.

Not worried at all. You’s just keep making up shit. We’re not dumb.

Try honeysuckle buds-will probably reverse some of the mutations.

The media is the real virus.

However much the news tells us too I guess

Umm not much at all

About as much as catching a cold or flu… in other words… No worry at all.

Why use the term worry? Worry does nothing. Maybe prepare?

Apparently the poisoned sheeps only.......

OMG People should stay home, lock their doors, wear masks alone in cars if they go out, shut down the USA, get 50 boosters, never get closer than 100' to anyone else, and blame POTUS45 for all of it and believe all makes up. (communist news network exclusive)

None. Stopped thinking 'covid' and covid Stopped existing in my life.

Quran Chapter 112 0 In the name of God, the Kind, the Caring. 1. Say, “He is God, the One. 2. God, the Unique. 3. He doesn’t beget, nor was He begotten. 4. No one is equal to Him.”

The Covid virus is obviously more intelligent than most posters on Twitter, as it mutates apparently is less deadly each time maybe it worked out it needs humans as host to stay alive so killing us is not productive

None. zero. as long as russia and russians exist. russians are not people. russiaisateroriststate

I'm more worried about the chickens not laying their eggs for us to buy 🤣

About as much as your ratings! Sweet F-ALL!

Not at all, the last 3 years have proven COVID to no more deadly than flu…..nothing to see here move on.

Our antibodies has a way to adapt. If you pump yourself with a pill for every nose running or headache you are damaging your white blood cells. So if you get covid your body doesn’t know how to respond to the new intruder. Americans loves big pharma and that’s why people die.

Do not support the Islamic Republic and the Revolutionary Guards IRGCterrorists

Not nearly as much as you want them to... Give it a rest. Your track record on accurate reporting on issues such as this completely sucks!

People are dropping from the vaccine. I have two friends who got strokes after the booster. I’ll take my chances with Covid thank you very much b

🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

Wear an N95 if you’re scared. Cloth masks don’t do shit. There is a reason why we are required to wear n95’s while taking care of a Covid patient. CLOTH MASKS DONT DO SHIT

None

About as much as an alien invasion, you fascists clowns.

Trust medical experts just like the cdc lmao

Has the msm, to include FoxNews figured out why all their ratings suck? It's all the blatant lies and half truths, if that, they keep trying to shove down the sheep's gullets.

I am more concern about the price of onions in the Philippines

AS= C= CNN= M🌻💫

ZERO - enough of the fear porn - we've all moved on from the Plandemic

Don’t care, I’ll just take my vitamin C, zinc, D and be healthy as possible, never again!!

They shouldn’t worry… I am a hell of a lot more worried about the side effects of the vax than Covid!

It depends, the more you’ve been jabbed the more you have to worry about.

Ya'll should be very worried an get your booster.

Only the jabbed need to worry. This strain could knock them off

What are you more afraid of?

Give me some covid ......and too hell with your vaccine

Haven't worked about covid in almost two years! Keep riding the fear train, it's all you have!

Scare tactics

They need to worry about this. Enjoy!! 🧐🥱💤☠️

Not as much as they should worry about being vaccine

Zero

As much as catching the Herp if you wear a condom

I’m more worried about the steak chicken stuffed burrito with extra hot sauce I have to extract from the other end of my body

at this point, shouldn't people worry about the 'vaccines' which might be linked to strokes?

hello, well it depends? how much you value your life? is very simple! 🖖

If CNN is reporting this, then I definitely don’t care.

Fear porn.....None

Remember the survival rates for the OG, from 2020… Much less deadly than that!?

Just had Covid. Couldn’t care less🤙😜

The vaccinated need to start worrying about their heart !

a lot

0.0 - no worry at all

Rhymes with “zero”

More of you got the gene editing

The 27th story on the CNN news website is the 1st one about the Biden Classified document story. 27th...clearly it is the 1 story and should be the headliner. This is 1 reason why CNN is fake news, propaganda network.

I hear you can test negative and it has no symptoms.

Not democrats

Depends on how many lies and how much fear mongering the demonrats can shove down their ignorant worshippers throats

None

How much should people worry about the CDC investigating stroke reactions from the jab. You are actually asking people to take the chance of getting a stroke

CNN Stop the propaganda and support the people.

If I survived, then I’ve survived. Otherwise, it’s fine. I’ve lived a good life.

Not bother about it at all!

At this point we know it's fear mongering

Only the vaxxed need to worry

How much did Pfizer pay you to post that?

Just turn off CNN and you have nothing to worry about.

We Iranians request the people of Ukraine, Syria and any other country who were hurt and oppressed by IRGCterrorists to join the rally on January 16 in Strasbourg, France. MahsaAmini 3

This CNN tweet brought to you by:

I get my news from Twitter so...🤷

At the very beginning 99.8% survived, recovered, without any vaccination. As virus mutate they naturally become more infectious and less deadly.... can't say the same for the vaxxxines or the politicians that capitalized.

Not at all, Covid is like the flu, I’ve been saying it since 2020

None.

BS.24/7 variant

Ask yourself: If I wanted to control a population, how would I do it?! Clarifies things.

Can we already call this variant Xi (ξ)?

I wrote about Genes and chromosomes. There will be a high sophisticated Natural virus will be spread to alter human cells to make them look like dogs , monkeys and pigs .

None

Get a new beat.

I think Putin has address that lies

Shouldn't worry at all, it's all made up at this point .

🤡

Not at fucking all

Take vitamin C, D3, Zinc and Magnesium. Hot herbal tea will loosen up the congestion. Also if you will eat 5 jalapeños chips 3 X a day for 5 days it will also help with congestion. Just an FYI: both raw honey and raw unrefined coconut oil are natural antibiotics. UR welcome.

I had only one shot of Pfizer in April 2021 . I got covid January 2022 . Mild symptoms skin rush and runny nose . I haven’t worn mask 😷 , I haven’t got no more shots ( allergy) I work with people . I am fine .

Close the schools. Right CNN.

China vaccines are a dud! They are importing US & Indian vaccines!

Wasn't it in Joe's lock up with his Corvette?

❤️🇺🇸

apikeywordfunction.xiii.martyrdom

Zero percent worried. Only people who should be worried are the vaxxed. They are highly more likely to get sick because of the vax that breaks down their immune system on top of a stroke and cardiac arrest.

No one cares anymore!

Nobody! Yall are just 🤡

Nothing you say is ever true.

Just tell us to quad mask and get it over with!

None. Fake news

Zero fucks given.

This one makes you bleed from your anus

I’ve never worried about any of them

CNN has to be government funded. no way in hell people watch their stuff any more. msnbc surpassed them a long time ago.

Only the vaxxed need to worry

Calm down Communist News Network…. Lay off the jim jones punch….

Not concerned at all

CNN sucks.

Not at all

Just stop with the charade.

Zero. Who is funding you because no one watches? Oh wait you take Chinese money, fact.

Are the vaccines still valid if there is no state of emergency?

No one should worry about it.. stop pushing this shyt

Much less than they should worry about CNN

less than the Chinese

I'd be far more worried about the 'vaccine' side effects than ANY covid variant.

Zero percent.

People don’t care about COVID anymore

not much

Covid was the Virus that could of KILLED ALOT MORE. I decided to stop it and give y’all a chance to trust Good God. It’s also the Virus that WILL mix with the next to start the apocalypse of zombies. IF you decide not to trust ME

This you?

Just keep pumping the old propaganda, it works on millions. Cnn you guys know that you're dealing with a stupid population because they keep listening to you.

I'm vera page. I won the lotto max in 2022 worth $60 Million. I have decided to help 100 families with some financial assistance. I hope the little i offer will definitely put a smile on faces of people struggling. Send me a direct message in my DM I'll pick randomly

How much should people worry about getting in their car and driving? How much should people worry about a unhealthy lifestyle? How much should people worry about how much people should worry about. Get your shot, wear a mask, protect yourself and shut up. Talking spreads germs

Omg no!!! I’m going to hurry and go get 6 more vaccines to cover myself!!! Thank you CNN for saving me.

Can we please just start charging media corporations with fear mongering and coercion already

If you got your Covid shot all three of them you should not worry about that long as you keep up with your shots you’ll be OK

Oh... god... next year it will be 30% it not stopping

We Iranian people don't recognize Jürgen Todenhöfer as an independent journalist! IRGCterorrists

The grift is up

Back underground we go!

Zero

None!

Yawn.

The answer is none. No worry

Definitely not enough to change your genetics and destroy your immune system.

Lmao get on with your lives or continue to cower in your little bubble. The rest of us got shit to do.

Worry?

They shouldn’t

Medical 'analyst.' Kudos for not saying medical 'expert.' We're on to you, either way.

Cnn is having another no news day

Still wearing a mask in crowds because others don't care about spreading anything.

Not at all. 🤡🤡🤡

We’ll, at least you didn’t say “our medical expert”, thanks for that.

Dr. Leana Wen... Mask children, vaccine passports, vaccine mandates for all, lock down schools, travel bans. Just a few of the wonderful opinions she's had. FakeNews

Basically is an endless cycle

I saw XBB.1.5 and assumed Elon had another kid.

Click. That the sound of me not reading this and switching the TV off .

PERSONALLY I THINK JOE BIDEN SHOULD BE IMPEACHED FROM OFFICE FOR HAVING DOCUMENTS THAT HE WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAVE!!!!

☝️Propaganda

Try real news…

It’s the flu

Don't give two hoots anymore they've lied all the way, can't trust them anymore.

do a documentary on the sackler family who targeted the white middle class with their opoids but they are BOLSHEVIKS so they get away with it,so you do a documentary on a couple white boy pushers

Same medical analyst who lied about Pres Trump “neurological disease” in 2018? You don’t have experts you have expert propagandists.

None whatsoever. It’s the flu.

They shouldn’t

ada perkembangan bagus di amerika kemarin.... dan hari ini mereka buat operasi penjagalan lagi....

CNN Medical Analyst ? Ha ! you pushed the lie that if you got the shot you CANT get covid, Why would anyone trust your propaganda network for medical advice..

If people don’t understand by now how to protect themselves it’s a lost cause.

Shouldn't at all

It will be deadly in winter only
