But it's still a 'water grab' 2022-08-15T04:00:00Z Indeed, from the primordial alpha variant to the delta variant to omicron, new variants emerge when unique mutations make a strain either more contagious, or more capable of evading immunity from previous infections and vaccines. Why BA.5 became the dominant COVID variant 2022-08-10T04:00:00Z "If you got caught delta towards the end of its wave in October you could totally get infected again in January by omicron because omicron is really different from delta," Bhattacharya said. How many times can you get reinfected with COVID? Here's what experts say 2022-08-06T04:00:00Z Obegi said this issue is important because it goes to the heart of what California is doing for the delta ecosystem, and whether current approaches are effective.

The enduring medical mystery of Paxlovid "rebounds" 2022-08-02T04:00:00Z It also asked why the land above that elevation should be given the same credit “as habitat that directly benefits delta smelt year-round?” Tidal marsh or ‘fake habitat’? California environmental project draws criticism 2022-09-10T04:00:00Z And during the spread of the delta variant, that risk was four times higher. “God, no, not another case”: COVID-related stillbirths didn’t have to happen 2022-08-04T04:00:00Z He launched a twin-tunnel idea to transport Sacramento River water under the estuary from the north delta to the southern pumps. Newsom's Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta plan makes more sense. But it's still a 'water grab' 2022-08-15T04:00:00Z That hasn’t always been the case with this coronavirus, though; Yadegar pointed out that last summer’s delta variant was “vastly more severe” than the original virus. Southern California’s long COVID wave appears to be waning 2022-08-04T04:00:00Z It blames the failure to remove sediment from the delta, which allows oxygen and fresh water into the lagoon, for aggravating the situation. Italy’s salty Po Delta hurting agriculture, fisheries 2022-08-02T04:00:00Z Westlands officials have said the wildlife department recently collected three delta smelt larvae on the property that were larger than smelt larvae collected elsewhere, and have also collected larvae of another fish, longfin smelt.
