Woman erasing red COVID-19 virus with paint roller Scientists say a “stealth” Omicron subvariant, BA.2, has been moving steadily across the country, but they don’t think the new strain will cause a new surge in COVID-19 cases.

“In early 2022, BA.2 was growing more common in a number of countries,” The New York Times reported . “By February, it had become dominant worldwide, driving down the once-dominant BA.1.

Worldwide, the number of daily new cases had fallen to half of what they were at their peak in late January,” the Times reported.
Others have echoed that sentiment.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
