No deaths so far. This is horrendous. If the government doesn’t institute forced vaccinations and further destroy the economy there is no telling what the outcome will be.

no deaths...but the scare-mongering continues.

yes, Australia boasts it not only has omicron...but a NEW omicron as well!

8 Dec: ABC Australia: Queensland records first cases of the Omicron variant of COVID-19, both different genetically
Queensland has recorded its first cases of the Omicron variant of COVID-19.
A Nigerian man, who tested positive while in hotel quarantine in Cairns a few days ago, has been confirmed as a positive case of the new variant.
The man flew into Queensland on Jetstar flight JQ950 from Sydney to Cairns on Friday, December 3, and everyone on that flight has now been deemed a close contact.

Another man, from South Africa, who tested positive to the virus on Saturday in Brisbane, has also been confirmed to have Omicron, but tests revealed it was slightly different genetically.
Health Minister Yvette D’Ath said the international committee had now reclassified Omicron into two lineages “and we have both of them in Queensland”.
Ms D’Ath said because Queensland still had quarantine arrangements for international arrivals, authorities were able to identify the cases without it entering the community.

Chief Health Officer Peter Aitken said the scientific services team picked up the differences in the Omicron variant.
“[They] recognised there are differences between the full and normal Omicron classification, passed it on to the international committee in a really quick time frame,” he said.
“The important part is those two sub-lineages, one has the S gene dropout and is the normal means of screening for Omicron … but then this other gene then doesn’t have this S gene dropout.”...

how did we get to this degree of insanity? how to stop it?

7 Dec: Daily Mail UK: Anti-vaxxers who spit, cough or sneeze on hospitality staff face MASSIVE fines – as Queensland businesses brace for an onslaught of abuse when new Covid rules are brought in
Fines for anti-vaxxers who sneeze, spit or cough on staff checking Covid status
Anyone caught abusing retail or hospitality employees faces $1378.50 penalty
New laws are being brought in ahead of Queensland re-opening on December 17
Only fully vaccinated will be able to enjoy new freedoms while the rest must wait
By KEVIN AIRS
The new rules come in on December 17 when hotels, pubs, clubs, bars and restaurants will all be fully open to everyone who has been double-jabbed.
But the unvaccinated will find themselves left on the pavement, and also banned from cinemas, casinos, sports stadiums, music festivals and universities.

Everyone will need to prove their vaccination status on entry by the Check In QLD app or printed versions of their vaccination certificate...

Queensland health minister Yvette D’Ath warned anti-vaxxers that they will be punished if they try to bend the rules.
‘When you walk up to that door and you see that sign that says, “This is a vaccinated business”, if you choose to walk past that sign unvaccinated, it is you that are breaching the rules, it is you that is committing an offence and there are consequences to it,’ she said...

plenty online about the following, but no confirmation or denial from FakeNewsMSM as yet:

7 Dec: Covidworld: SHOCK As Melbourne Woman Sets Herself On Fire Inside Car With Sign Saying: “NO ONE CARES, MANDATES ARE KILLING US”
The woman parked her car, blocking off a road in Cherry St, Werribee, a suburb in Victoria, and poured 4 cans of petrol over herself before placing the sign containing her written plea in the window of her car. Police attended and tried to talk her down, but she ultimately set herself on fire after telling the police she had “nothing left”.

The condition of the woman is currently unknown and the mainstream Australian media has yet to cover the incident. However, video from Wyndham News Australia shows the aftermath of the fire, with the sign containing the woman’s desperate plea plainly visible for all to see.

Witnesses have confirmed the incident on Facebook and the story is currently gaining some serious traction online, making it an open question of whether the mainstream Australian news outlets will be forced to cover the incident...

Below is the aftermath video by Wyndham News Australia: VIDEO 1m39s

This is a developing story.

7 Dec: Gateway Pundit: No Jab, No Food: Canadian Province Imposes New Regulations to Ban Unvaccinated from Grocery Stores
by Jim Hoft
Since Saturday, people in New Brunswick, Canada are now required to show proof of full vaccination in public. Failure to provide proof of full vaccination will result in citizens being barred from entering grocery stores to buy food, True North (LINK) reported.

This new provision was announced as part of the province’s “winter action plan,” which allows any business, including grocery stores, the right of denying entry to any unvaccinated food shopper. The new provision raises questions from the health experts regarding the need to impose such a plan as the province’s daily cases remain low...

The world health organization (WHO) is not what its title claims to be. It is nothing more that a leftist shill to advance its goals and propaganda. Health? Hogwash.

the good news is that the more cases they are, even if they are mild, the more natural immunity there is.

Since DeBlasio went nuts in NY....this should ease the way for the New Mayor to truly “follow the science”...and reverse DeBlasio’s asinine mandates.

Fauci doesn't count Natural Immunity.

It looks like this Omicron is the death knell for this Pandemic.

Had to read headline twice to realize it wasn't a rhetorical question implying there were some deaths.

That is what I was thinking. Maybe we need to have some Omicron parties.
