The new COVID-19 variant first detected in South Africa was given the name Omicron by the World Health Organization on Friday.
An advisory panel classified Omicron as a highly transmissible virus of concern and gave it its name under its Greek-letter system.
It marks the first time in months that WHO has classified a COVID-19 variant with such a name – and is only the fifth variant to be given the designation amid the pandemic.

Just a few days ago the experts said not to worry about this 30 mutations variant, that only a dozen cases have been seen and that it is unstable and thus unlikely to be highly contagious. Now it has a name and is in several countries and flights are being cancelled again and Europe is ready to lock everyone down and they’ve got up to 2000 cases identified in South Africa and elsewhere.
They skipped ten letters after Delta. I can understand why they skipped some (Iota, suggesting insignificance; Mu, suggesting cows; nu, suggesting “new”; and Xi, suggesting China). But what was wrong with Epsilon, Zeta, Eta, Kappa, and Lambda?
Which alphabet will they switch to after they run out of Greek letters?
what happened to N?
Wasn’t Oricron Sete 3 in a Star Trek episode?
As I said on the other thread, when you get right down to it, all the WHO has to do these days is come up with a real fearsome name, categorize a few scattered pneumonia cases as the new “variant,” and send out a press release.
The worldwide Leftist media and politicians take care of the rest.
It’s just become too easy for them.
My pet pangolin.is shivering with fear
As in Omicron Persei 8 !
I knew Lrr was behind this !

My name for this variant was the AfriCooties or The Lumumba
When this post went up, I said o myself, where have I heard that word. You nailed it! Watched all of that series with my kids. Big laughs!
That’s right.
Commiecron from Wuhan
People may think that the variants are fraternities.
Omicron looks like a neat emoticon:
O_o
I used that one when someone said something stupid.
Why not call it biological warfare? Hmm...well then we would have to find out who cooked it up!
As soon as I was finished, I saw this thread title.
You know how God always gets there first.
Omicron is the one that is "70", but not in age.
Omicron in Hebrew [אומיקרון] = 413, and remember what Buzz said just at the point the eagle had landed, mere seconds before it was reported.
"413 is in."
Hey it's just a number, could be anything besides landing codes/coordinate instructions. E.g., "Book of Life", ספר החיים.
How dumb is this gibberish. After all, omicron is a Greek word/letter/number.
Okay... "Seventy" in Greek [Ἑβδομήκοντα] = 570. Latin as LXX. Translation: the Gentile Torah.
"Observe my statues!"
(You no rush Michelangelo.)
The "Final Verdict" and all that. David lived to the age of 70.
Been 19 51 one years since AD 70.
70 ---> the time for a mighty rescue.
Probably need some validation though, like harps hanging along a willow by the rivers of Babylon, because a lot of end-timers insist that America is "Mystery Babylon."
It will solve the age old lament about how can we sing a song of Zion [under these circumstances]? Oh, about a brisk 10 min walk from Mars will take you to the answer..
When you arrive, you'll see on the sign that Jupiter aligns with Mars.
It's all orchestrated. :)
XI variant would not be pc
