It's unclear if the new subvariant causes any unfamiliar symptoms that haven't already been documented by other Omicron subvariants.

As part of a new risk evaluation released Wednesday, the World Health Organization bumped EG.5 to the same standing as XBB.1.5 and XBB.1.6, which are also members of the Omicron family tree.

Christ, I'm actually frustrated that everyone's stopped caring about COVID and that the US has started discouraging people from taking precautions (like COVID tests no longer being free). I know COVID will probably never fully leave at this point, and I'd be a bit more accepting if everyone had just come straight out and said, "there's nothing more we can do right now" after making a real effort to fight it. However, I know they never actually made an effort to stop it, they just waited until enough people had become desensitized and then started pushing people back out into public spaces because fuck you.

I never had COVID until everyone stopped caring about it. I'm on my 4th time having now.

Do not recommend.
