won't be long before this become the dominant variant world wide as it spreads easier. Basically I read an article that put it this way. Either you get a vaccine or you get this Covid 19 variant and even if you have the vaccine, there is a 1 in 16 million chance you will catch this variant anyway

Wow they are just now releasing a study on that when it had already been mentioned months ago, even before January, that it had been found in flu samples in California in December of 2019?!?!

It's because it was first detected in China in 2019, not because the US thought there was evidence of spread to other places in 2019. The illness was named before that evidence was really strong.

I honestly thought the 19 was an identifier for the 19th strain or something like that.

That's true of SARS-CoV-2 which is the actual virus name. It's the second human SARS virus. COVID-19 is the disease name, kind of like HIV and AIDS. If we're being pedantic, it's inaccurate to say "asymptomatic COVID" but rather asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 or SARS-CoV-2 without symptoms of COVID.

The thing here isn’t Stewart it’s Colbert laughing with his buddy after making fun of anyone that said this for the last year.

I've said this before but I think it will be amazing to come back and look at this thread in a couple of years. I'm not really a John Stewart fan but it was fun watching him stick it to Colbert.
