Saturday Surprise — Birds, Birds, Birds | Filosofa’s Word

Dr Anthony Fauci: Covid and the rise of the BA.5 subvariant | RNZ

He said it came down to controlling the virus to reduce the possibility of new variants.

Fauci said vaccinations and boosters protected against “severe disease” and hospitalisations, but not so much against infection itself.

Drugs like Paxlovid suppressed the virus, but it did not kill it.

“Almost invariably people who get reinfected, get reinfected with a strain a little bit different than the original strain that infected them. And the new strain tends to evade, partially, the immune protection that the original infection conferred upon you.”

Covid-19 could be treated as equivalent to the flu when community infection was low enough and did not disrupt social order, he said. “Namely, it doesn’t cause the fear, the disruption of the economy, the disruption of our social interactions, the way it has done over the last two and a half years. We’re not there yet.

“I’m sure that coronavirus will be with us for quite a while, maybe indefinitely, so we’re going to have to deal with the fact that this virus does change and create new variants.”

As for Long Covid, he said there were no answers yet as to why some people suffered from it while others do not.

Amazon Rainforest: Highest deforestation rate in six years – BBC News

Aerial view of a deforested plot of the Amazon rainforest in Manaus. 8 July 2022.

Some 3,988 square kilometres (1,540 square miles) of land were cleared in the region between January and June.

Last year, 3,088 square kilometres of the rainforest were destroyed during the same period.

The Amazon plays an essential role in the planet’s oxygen and carbon dioxide cycles, absorbing vast amounts of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.

Environmentalists blame the increasing levels of deforestation on Brazil’s right-wing president, Jair Bolsonaro, who has rolled back environmental protections.

Brazil’s environment ministry said it had been forceful in fighting environmental crimes, although in a statement it failed to mention the spike in deforestation.
