Well, that worries me a great deal. :( The fact that it's so many different strains and is now in a form that can be passed from person to person even though it can't naturally do that makes me suspicious that someone engineered it.

I'm more inclined to believe that it's 'natural', such as is.

We're unfortunately still vulnerable to this kind of thing going 1919-style ugly.

Some of us (immuno-compromised) more than others.

The WHO has a report about the problem, and it will be doing regular updates.
