SARS2PAUpdate for 2/19/2024!
Good Morning SARS2PAians! ❄️❄️❄️
There's no current news for varaints or wastewater. JN.1 still controls the leaderboard up and down.
The CDC is tracking a new variant, BA.2.87, and variant hunters are also focusing on its child, BA.2.87.1. It has over 100 mutations, >30 in spike alone.
"Around 100 mutations compared with BA.2 .. has a distinct N-terminal domain in the spike protein, including several large deletions .. could potentially be associated with a significant shift in antigenic properties."
So far, there have been very. very few found samples of BA.2.87. The problem, similarly to BA.2.86, is not the new highly mutated varaint itself; the problem is if it picks up mutations that could make it new to our immune system ***even compared to BA.2.86*** and drive a wave like JN.1.

BA.2.87 is not on the radar anywhere enough to be on the Tableau trackers yet.

Lots of counties showing new hospital admits compared to last week. We've got Crawford, and around BradfordCo on the northern side and the old coal region (Schuylkill) all the way over to Huntingdon. PLEASE use some form of enhanced source control while the weather is cold.: https://ibb.co/nwCxWn9
inpatient beds looking much better. The only high increase county is Elk, but the new admits map is probably going to add to this in the coming weeks.: https://ibb.co/9G13xQy
ICU bed use increased significantly in Forest, Venango and Clarion Cos. Also Huntingdon, mifflin and Juniata.: https://ibb.co/417N1h2
Another short update but that's all I have for now. BA.2.87.x.y will continue to be closely monitored. Please use some form of enhanced source control until we can open these windows! Don't become the statistics in my posts.
Quality respirators, clean air, getting vaccinated, STAYING HOME and being aware of social contacts will all help us ease into a pleasant and healthy Spring! 💐💐💐
