    My read was that they're making up the response as they go, not making up the existence of new strains

      Hmm, maybe, but I'm not so sure about that. I have been dealing a lot with the people thinking it's a hoax or blown out of proportion in order to control society, though, so I'm definitely primed by now to interpret it that way.

      "to keep people in a state of panic" makes me think that they're subscribing to the social control hoax conspiracy theory. The people that believe it's all a hoax, and whenever the public starts to figure it out, they have to invent new details in order to keep us subservient and fearful.
