The Hill ^ | 11/30/2021 | MAUREEN BRESLIN

Japan confirmed its first case of the COVID-19 omicron variant on Tuesday, according to The Associated Press.

The infection was found in a Namibian diplomat in his 30s who recently entered Japan, the AP noted. The diplomat, who tested positive for COVID-19 when he landed at Tokyo Narita Airport Sunday, is receiving care at a hospital.

Initially, the man had no symptoms. However, he is now showing signs of fever, Chief Cabinet Secretary Shigeyuki Goto said, according to the news service. Japanese health officials reportedly stated that the diplomat had been fully vaccinated with the Moderna vaccine as of July.

This omigod variant traveled around the globe in 4 days. I call BS on the whole nightmare. These politicians know nothing about a 4-day old Fauci bioweapon.

This is crushing:
https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/moderna-ceo-says-vaccines-likely-less-effective-against-omicron-ft-2021-11-30/

CEO Moderna says current vax will not stop Omicron. His people are telling him there is no world in which the vax is as good as against delta, and there is just no way it is going to be good. A tailored vax will absolutely be needed ASAP, and it may be futile because this variant and its mutation total has appeared 2 years before any model predicted. A new vax maybe can’t complete testing before the next appears.

This CEO said this only hours after “current vaccines provide a degree of protection” from Biden. haha degree = 2%. They will somehow punish him for this.

Someone has developed a test kit for it?

Turns out PCR testing looks for 3 genes of the Covid type to be positive. One is the S gene and it is negative in Covid Omicron. So the standard PCR test finding 2 positive genes and S negative is declared Omicron positive, pending the usual genomic sequencing.

The disease is life and reduction of the disease can only be achieved with a reduction in life at various key and vulnerable stages. Conception, underlying diseases, obesity, and older age. If you're in the group that pays into the system you're ok. If you are in a group that is an expense to the system you are a target.

As for new payees into the system, that's what our southern open border is for. That's going to be our new birth rate supply.

Will the soon-to-be discarded PCR test get a reprieve?
This whole thing is a worldwide self-perpetuating scam.

The schedule is 1 January to stop using PCR.

Not an expert on the new tests, but I’m pretty sure they will do the same Omicron detection.

PROOF or Omicron is just “we say this is Omicron.” After all the lies the “health” technocrats have spewed over the last 2 years, we need PROOF. Publish the test conditions and specs. They won’t, BTW.
