The big question is whether mutations in the spike protein will eventually "outsmart" our vaccines, which train our immune systems to recognize viral spike protein as it existed 10 months ago.

Maybe, eventually. But we can alter our vaccines just like we do for the flu.

Here is a great thread explaining the work tracking these new mutations:

A mutation in the spike protein of SARS-CoV2 started spreading earlier this year, and is now the prevalent global strain because it improved the virus' ability to hold onto the ACE2 receptor on our cells - it became a better key for the lock that opens the door into our bodies.

[Dr. Kiki Sanford @drkiki]

Are there new strains of the COVID-19 virus being talked about? Yes.

Before you get concerned, let's clear a couple of things up...

Could I be more exited?
NO!
(Did I already see this fight live? Yes, but that's not the point! 😜)

Putting cute thumbholes in, so you don’t drop the single cracker and cheese or sandwich quarter you can put on this thing.

50 custom aluminum washers will go into Chomp. The custom washers are special, not just for size and utility, they have also been machined down with spokes to save a total of 1.6 lbs of weight. To see the manufacturing process head to: https://t.co/8cyPRyEoHn

Chomp's armor Hoop Skirt is a suspended band of AR 500 around the bottom. We want to avoid welding AR 500 as much as possible because heating it destroys its heat treat, which gives AR 500 the hardness and toughness. So we're bending our armor with help from Hazard Factory!
