There is a lot that we don’t know about Omicron, including whether it causes more severe illness than other variants, says Leana Wen, MD, an emergency doctor and public health professor at George Washington University.

That thing was head of Planned parenthood and believes that Biden should mandate vaccines for all Americans. Smells like a fifth columnist.

They don’t know anything about the new variant but they do know you will need more boosters.

WHO= CHINESE COMMUNISTS running the operation, and FAKING the “health concern”.

Point of Fact which the Dutch have let us all know— so called and named by WHO “omicron” was detected in August in Holland... BEFORE it was detected in South Africa. So are the chi-coms targeting Afrikaaners or Boers? Interesting thought. This is a NOTHING “variant” of “a” coronavirus, NOT covid. There is also that.

Plandemic part 2 Fauci on all three major Sunday shows to tee up more of his horse crap.

I no longer care. This whole thing has been a confusing farce since day 1.

Seriously though here’s what I think will happen — Omicron will likely evade vaccine efficacy, and as such, cause a quasi-aggressive policy response from governments across the globe. Those responses will likely include mobility restrictions, quarantine periods, and potentially even moderate lockdowns. That will negatively impact economic activity over the next few months.

However, such measures won’t last more than a few weeks, or months, and they will be met with notable resistance in many countries ( including ours ). Therefore, this is not a return to March 2020 – but rather, a temporary return to March 2021, when pretty much everything was open but consumers were a bit more cautious.

That’s all.

The net effect will be a temporary and very minor economic slowdown in the fourth quarter of 2021, followed by a resumption of the global economic recovery in early 2022.

Perhaps— the data, and it is coming from the S. Africans themselves with the Dutch help— is that the entire virion has mutated.

This is what viruses do— become more infectious so they can continue to live, and less deadly so they don’t kill hosts and become a literal population dead end. The clinicals from both countries show this to be the case. The full virion is not covid-19, but look how these jokers jump on it so they can still get camera time and control the population. Not anymore.

I think (don't tell anyone) that I'm the first US case of Omicron. I had a mild cough and a mild headache since the day before Thanksgiving but I feel good enough to go out in public tomorrow. I did my due diligence and wore a mask when I had to go out in public and tried not to get near anyone. Used self checkout at the market - etc. etc.

I was on 1500mg of Vitamin C, B1, my super multi vitamin for mens over 40, a ton of Zinc and a ton of Vitamin D.

Mildest head "cold" I've ever had.

Well, is there a specific “test” for the omicron virus? No, didn’t think so. EOS.

Why did the article ignore the South African statement that, so far, Omicron cases have been mild?

We know there is NO VIRUS that can be produced by anyone on the planet, they claim to have genome sequences of something, who cares about a “variant” of something they CAN’T PRODUCE??

OK, can you tell us what has been killing nearly a million Americans that past 18 months?
