The highly transmissible Omicron COVID-19 variant has now been detected in the country’s second-largest city, in addition to New York.
A person who traveled to LAX from South Africa before Thanksgiving tested positive for the new mutation, Los Angeles County officials announced Thursday.
The adult’s symptoms are improving in self-isolation without medical care, officials announced.
The California patient’s plight mirrors that of a 67-year-old Long Island woman, who had recently returned from South Africa before testing positive for the variant earlier this week, New York officials said Thursday.

CommieCron Variant
Oh, no! Not the Omigawd variant!
Why would anyone take this seriously when there is no published information on how they can tell the difference between all the variants and, more importantly, the effects of the gene serum (aka fake vaccine)? Wake up, folks. They are exploiting your stupidity.
LOL!
Anytime I see the word omicron now in an article, I just replace the word with the words, “common cold”. Typically it means I’m reading a dog bites man story.
Bodies are piling up in the streets?
“highly transmissible”................How do they know?...............
I thought I heard that as of today, ALL the infected people were vaccinated. So I guess being unvaccinated provides protection :)
They've been saying this nonsense from the beginning, yet -- after nearly TWO years -- most states have recorded cases ranging from about 9% to 13% of the population.
When I ask most folks what percentage of the population they think have had Covid they always guess 40% or more, some as high as 70%. When I tell them our state just passed the 10% mark after the peak of Delta they're shocked. The media has almost everyone fooled.
Oh BFD!
Me too, me too, me too!!!
Yet the Omicron variant may end this COVID pandemic. It is highly contagious and causes only a mild brief illness. Those infected will develop an immunity to this coronavirus variant which very well might offer immunity to the existing more virulent COVID viruses. This is the mechanism by which the Spanish flu waned. Its thought that the virus mutated into a more benign, communicable form, infected the remaining uninfected, susceptible human population and conferred immunity to the more virulent strains that died out for a lack of hosts. This is a well known phenomena in medicine. Small pox vaccines originated with the observation that English milk maids did not geyt small pox. It was noted that they got cow pox lesions on their hands and they developed cross immunity to small pox. Small pox vaccines came from cow pox pustules and eventually the disease was eliminated in humans.
OH NOOOOO!!!!!!! We’re all gonna die now!!!!!
What is the scientific description of the common cold? (Other than omicron)
“The adult’s symptoms are improving in self-isolation without medical care,”
Just as reported by the doctor in SA and in EVERY SINGLE NEWS REPORT OF OMICRON CASES.
Prediction: They will NEVER use the term ‘rare’ to describe hospitalization of Omicron patients...even though it is most appropriate. /s
What test will tell you which “variant” you have?
This is so much BS. How can anyone not see it at this stage unless they just didn’t want to see it.
This variant is the absolute worst nightmare to those at big pharma and the tyrannical shills promoting the fraud.
It will be interesting to see how they use it. Given that this is the ‘stupid pandemic’, it appears that fear is working, considering that some 80% of democrats were polled as afraid of Omicron (reported yesterday; 30-odd% of Republicans, iirc).
LOCK IT ALL DOWN
Hose It All Down The River
