New COVID Variant Called “Centaurus” Is The New “Stealth Omicron”
by Mac Slavo, SHTF Plan:
A new Omicron subvariant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is being dubbed “Centaurus,” or the new “stealth omicron.” The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention told Fortune on Thursday that this could be the “most immune-evasive” variant yet.
It’s never-ending with the fear and panic over people getting colds. There have been a whopping two cases of BA.2.75, dubbed “Centaurus,” detected in the U.S., with the first being identified on June 14, a spokesperson for the CDC said. But that won’t stop the media or ruling class from pushing the fear onto the public.

BA.2.75 has been reported in “about 10 other countries” and has not been declared a variant of concern, Dr. Soumya Swaminathan, WHO’s chief scientist, said in a Tuesday tweet. Transmissibility, severity, and potential for immune evasion are currently unknown, she added.
This new subvariant was first detected in India, and it’s tough to say if it’ll be the next one the rulers will use to overly panic the public or not:
New Omicron Subvariant Detected In India: B.A. 2.75
The basis for concern about the Omicron BA.2.75 variant.
8 mutations beyond BA.5, many in the N-terminal domain, which could make immune escape worse than what we’re seeing now. Competing w/ BA.5 in India. Excellent thread by @EllingUlrich 👇 https://t.co/Ko5AYxEonv— Eric Topol (@EricTopol) July 4, 2022
Along with the usual Omicron mutations, it has as many as nine additional changes, none of which are concerning individually. “But all appearing together at once is another matter,” Tom Peacock, a virologist at the Department of Infectious Disease at Imperial College in London, said recently in a tweet. Its “apparent rapid growth and wide geographical spread” are concerning, he added.
