Not true several variants were around before the vaccines were on the market. Even the new one the delta type was before india started their vaccinations it was still in early trials.
Hi.
Why is it then now that we know a certain blood type is less susceptible than the others, (asymptomatic) the VAX is being wielded like a sword at them also?

It was first sequenced there. Is that the same thing?

Between February and March 2020, in a tiny infected population of 473, in Iceland, about 40 SARS-nCoV-2 mutations were observed. Way before anyone was getting any vaccines:
Scientists have detected 40 coronavirus mutations – in Iceland alone
So what constitutes a variant in this case? Is it a Delta level variant or much less change to call it a variant. In a way we could say every human is a variant while still being very close to each other.

I don't watch MSM or TV much at all.
If the variant originated in India, was there a massive increase in deaths?

India really struggles. They don't have the best healthcare and sanitisation anyway and with a new covid variant and 1.3 billion people it was as bad as you'd imagine

So suggests Dr. Joseph Mercola and the data he shares.
His examination of the idea takes the form of a lengthy video (within the source)...but, below is a recap of the points being set forth in the presentation.
STORY AT-A-GLANCE:
- Based on the scientific evidence, the narrative that unvaccinated people are viral factories for more dangerous variants is false
- Just as antibiotics breed resistance in bacteria, vaccines put evolutionary pressure on viruses to speed up mutations and create more virulent and dangerous variants
- Viruses mutate all the time, and if you have a vaccine that doesn’t block infection completely, then the virus will mutate to evade the immune response within that person. That is one of the distinct features of the COVID shots — they’re not designed to block infection.
They allow infection to occur and at best lessen the symptoms of that infection
- In an unvaccinated person, the virus does not encounter the same evolutionary pressure to mutate into something stronger.
So, if SARS-CoV-2 does end up mutating into more lethal strains, then mass vaccination is the most likely driver
- So far, SARS-CoV-2 variants are at most 0.3% different from the original Wuhan virus. Such minor variation means the virus will not present itself as a new virus. If you’ve recovered from COVID-19, your immune system will still recognize it

The idea that vaccines push viruses to evolve more quickly is not new...and could explain why we are now seeing articles about how the Delta, Epsilon and Lambda variants have evolved to make the China Virus more contagious and able to work their way around the "vaccine".
Viruses ain't smart...but they appear to be resourceful...and putting them under pressure from a massive "vaccination" campaign might truly push them to evolve faster and more effectively.
The theory makes the claim that "Unvaccinated" shed the less dangerous variants, while "vaccinated" will shed the more dangerous.
We already have research that suggests antibiotics cause bacteria to become more resistant more quickly.
By the same token, it's logical to suggest vaccines will also make viruses more resistant, more dangerous, more quickly...through pressured evolution.
Do I agree?
I don't know...but, there appears to be some basic logic behind the article. Certainly, the idea presents some food for thought...if not for discussion.
I'm posting to stimulate ATS' voracious appetite for both.
...ALSO because I rarely get to use the word "voracious".

Is it just me or do most of these doctors who make extraordinary claims seem to be osteopaths?
I'm sure this is the second one that is an osteopath and alternative medical practitioner.

Can't have a variant if the virus was fake to begin with. Fake News! Fauci is bad! All hail Supreme Leader Trump!

There are plenty of US variants, they're just not named as they're not any more harmful than the base variant.
It’s you

Is it just me, or do most people have no clue when it comes to facts and reality?
You do know that Osteopaths get the same amount of medical training as any other M.D., right?
I'm sure this is the second one that is an osteopath and alternative medical practitioner.
Yes, because Osteopaths have much, much more training in things other than drugs and surgery as a means to address chronic disease, because drugs and surgery can never, ever heal chronic disease.

If I had a Musculoskeletal issue and a whole bunch of osteopaths gave me the same advice and then someone told me to ignore all of them and instead listen to what an epidemiologist thought I'd say no.
