The media stopped reporting on new variants doesn’t mean there haven’t been new variants. I think you’re conflating media not covering new variants with new variants not existing. My understanding is that there been at least two new variants of omicron.


Why no mention of it then on the by authorities or on the front page of major media outlets?


I don’t know. Ask them?

So it’s probably just my fault for reading my dumb local California papers where three rising omicron subvariants are feature stories and there’s concern about a clear rise in cases and hospitalization, but I’d totally love for Covid to end if it just takes some silent media to do so.

Can I read your papers instead? Which ones are you reading?


I agree with your point, but there's no need for the snarky tone. This is HN.


Ah you know my papers are just the front page of every major media outlet in the country.
