They didn’t want covid nu and covid old memes
It would be very confusing to have a variant with a confusing name. And really, aren’t all these variants just versions of the flu? We should be well past the Greek alphabet by now.
Very likely... they’ll run out of alphabet pretty soon...
In other words, do not worry, peasants. "Micron: From Greek mīkron, neuter of mīkros, small."
It's just a small thing.
The scientific and engineering symbol for a micron is the Greek letter mu, μ. Why bother changing from "mu" to "micron"? That's just stupid.
Oh, my crone!
How odd, they skipped Xi and went straight to Omicron. I can’t think of a single reason they would do that
It's either a virus or an electric car.
It looks like it could be the title of a Marvel movie.. ‘The Omicron Variant.’’... where worlds end!
Oh. My. Cron!
Just in time for an election year.
And according to those in South Africa, the new strain produces “Mild Cases” so honestly what’s the big deal here..or is this all about what we already know it is, the 2022 midterms
Coinky-dinky this Gnu shows up a week after stories surface of low numbers in Africa despite low vaccination rates.
How about Covid Classic?
Nine more to the end... Omega!
There are many variants of covid out there, genetic tree mapped here:

Pick the one you want to frighten the people into submission.

I also heard this morning that it seems to be affecting the “younger population” more than others
Was the NO ONE in the meeting that could suggest Andromeda strain??? After all, its all scifi and lies anyway.
