apologies, i took as fact due to it originating from the covid conscious folk - there is low confidence in reputability of these claims due to source of reported symptoms being from an anti china faction.
It doesn’t matter if this strain is really going around China or not. And if it’s really from China or not
Even if it isn’t, all that means is that it’s about to be here soon and they’re confessing this preemptively
It’s already in Europe, along with a different variant that’s starting to spread in NY. “razor blade-throat” is just covid doing what covid has done several years. The reporting isn’t technically untrue, just sensationalized and bad.
I don’t think past covid infectees reported that much throat pain though, it sounds like it’s worse than previous strains
I remember people saying it felt like they swallowed broken glass when the omicron+ variants emerged, but it is strange how different people’s experiences can be with this damn virus.
