Covid: Boris Johnson sets new booster target over 'Omicron tidal wave'
BBC ^ | 12 12 2021 | Francesca Gillett

Posted on 12/12/2021 1:38:14 PM PST by yesthatjallen

Booster jabs will be offered to everyone over 18 in England from this week, the PM has announced, as he declared an "Omicron emergency".

"No one should be in any doubt, there is a tidal wave of Omicron coming," Boris Johnson said in a TV statement on Sunday evening.

The target to offer a booster to all adults by the end of January will be brought forward by a month, he said.

Some medical appointments may also be postponed to focus on boosters.

Mr Johnson gave his update on Sunday evening - just hours after the UK's Covid alert level was raised to four due to the spread of the new Omicron virus variant.

Level four means a high or rising level of transmission - and the last time the UK was at level four was in May.

"I'm afraid we're now facing an emergency in our battle with the new variant Omicron," said Mr Johnson.

"It is now clear that two doses of vaccine are simply not enough to give the level of protection we all need. But the good news is that our scientists are confident that with a third dose, a booster dose, we can all bring our level of protection back up."

Anyone who doesn’t see through this all by now is so deeply programmed that I don’t know how we reach them.

Those who sort of see through it but vacillate can potentially be brought to the light, but it seems like they need to be brought to the light every three days given their daily CNN/NBC/CBS programming.

“Offered”. Hmmmmm! Sounds like a choice is available.

No, but a great number of people may die from the tidal wave resulting from the Nuremburg II variant.

As of this moment, here is Webster's definition of emergency:

  1. an unforeseen combination of circumstances or the resulting state that calls for immediate action
  2. an urgent need for assistance or relief

I suspect before long they will redefine "emergency" to something like the following:

  1. a call for immediate action, regardless of whether circumstances call for it
  2. an urgent call for assistance or relief

The entire Fauci/China biological warfare virus pandemic is fake.

Every last bit of it.

99.98% survivable for people under the age of fifty.

The vaccine is the real pandemic.

And its goal is genocide.

The politicization of the virus has become an internal battle even in the heads of centrist and left-wing politicians. They are preoccupied with the idea that any increase in cases or deaths is THEIR FAULT, so they always go overboard in their mandates and restrictions, even when those mandates and restrictions repeatedly prove ineffective, even counterproductive. In their minds, IT IS ALL ABOUT THEM.

“Scientists are confident”. Sounds very scientific to me.
