Based on what CDC knows now, existing tests used to detect and medications used to treat COVID-19 appear to be effective with this variant. BA.2.86 may be more capable of causing infection in people who have previously had COVID-19 or who have received COVID-19 vaccines.

Which basically means everybody is more susceptible, since 99%+ of people in the US have either had COVID or the vaccine or both!

What?
I was not aware that 99%+ have either had COVID or been vaccinated.
I only know a few people who were vaccinated.
So unless someone got it completely asymptomatic and is unaware of having had COVID, I think that maybe 50% of the people that I know have not had COVID nor have they been vaccinated.

That is kind of to be expected. You live in a rural area and rural areas were more resistant to getting vaccinated.

What they are saying is that people who have had covid and/or the vaccine are more susceptible to this variant than to earlier variants.
