    Ummmm… #P1 🇧🇷 variant’s case fraction % in New York City just rose over 30% in just one week. Any others growing? Not really—#B117 (while more common) only rose tiny bit, and the NY variant #B1526 is mostly flat. I’ve seen this movie before—in BC🇨🇦—it didn’t end well. #COVID19https://twitter.com/NYCHealthCommr/status/1387754809948782597 …

    We're actively tracking variants to see what is happening with #COVID19 in NYC: https://on.nyc.gov/32UZeeH  In this report: 🔸The proportion of B.1.1.7 has grown slightly, now at 37.9% of sequenced cases 🔸The proportion of P.1 is also growing, from 2.6% last week to 3.4% this week pic.twitter.com/wqZ6tX3HZq

        2) that said, NYC is more heavily vaccinated than BC 🇨🇦. Let’s hope it’s enough to hold back any #P1 surge. I’m just trying to spot signals. And a 30% relative jump is notable in just a week.

        VERY WORRIED—Runaway train #P1 variant still uncontrolled in British Columbia 🇨🇦—surging 57% in just 4 days! In contrast, other contagious 🇬🇧variant #B117 only up 17%. #P1 from🇧🇷 is outcompeting #B117 by absolute increase too!

        OUTCOMPETING the faster #B117—despite the contagious 🇬🇧 #B117 variant being >90% of all #COVID19 cases, #P1 🇧🇷 is still surging in underbelly—increasing faster than #B117 in 🇳🇱, displacing wildtype quickly.

        Het OMT geef ook nog even een winstwaarschuwing mbt de P.1 variant.🇧🇷. Deze is al "wijd verspreid" aanwezig. Is waarschijnlijk - besmettelijker dan B.1.1.7🇬🇧 - gevaarlijker en - de vraag is of vaccins er tegen werken. pic.twitter.com/YuZz4zCGd0

        6) BC’s health chief initially took an ostrich approach to it all, thinking variants are no different. Then #P1 variant raged like a storm and she had to quickly backtrack and admit #P1 is more problematic.https://twitter.com/frozen/status/1387934065618079745 …

        They have nowhere near the vaccination rate in BC they already have in New York. And New York’s vaccinations continue apace. You’re drawing a false parallel.

        But I saw this morning that NY wants to "fully open" by July. My question is why, if we still have 2 variants rising, one quite a bit?
