⚠️Scoop—MOTHER OF GOD—Just got this leak from CDC-insider source—it seems #COVID variants worse than CDC has been admitting. The new highly evasive #BQ1 & #BQ11 sub variants are surging over 11%—but CDC has not shared it yet! Here is what will be posted soon (left) 🆚 current. 🧵 pic.twitter.com/BKyBgZwe86— Eric Feigl-Ding (@DrEricDing) October 14, 2022

Feel weird sharing a twitter post, but this guy has credentials. Fucking hate the CDC.

Sorry I've been posting a lot about covid lately, I'm immunocompromised and people ignoring covid has been driving me insane.

EDIT: here's a new source confirming this https://www.cbsnews.com/news/covid-variant-bq-1-omicron-cdc-estimates/

    They've been detecting a couple of the new variants in the US for months, but reported them as ba.5 infections.

    I guess that explains why they canceled boosters in the summer, in order to get the updated bivalent ones out ASAP.
