das Surge

With hospitalizations and a rapid rise in new coronavirus cases being driven by a surge of the Omicron variant, London’s mayor on Saturday declared a “major incident” — or emergency — for the first time since January.
The declaration sets up special coordination procedures and indicates that emergency services and hospitals cannot guarantee their normal level of response.
The move came as the number of patients in London hospitals increased 29 percent over the last week. The city has confirmed 65,525 new cases in the last week and 26,418 cases in the last day, the highest number since the start of the pandemic, Mayor Sadiq Khan’s office said in a statement on Saturday. The Greater London area has seen cases rise by nearly 200 percent over the last two weeks, making it the hardest hit area of Britain.

How many hospitalizations?
Shh, I’m prepping for the New Year’s variant already.
Don’t look for the facts, stick to the fiction.
They don’t seem to publish the death rate anymore. I wonder why?
Our obviously bought-and-paid-for media is getting very obvious. And very annoying.
Yep. Media wouldn’t want us to find out the facts. I haven’t seen any reports that the NHS is about to be overwhelmed. In that case, the Brits can keep marching on with a stiff upper lip. Or they are not like that anymore after Winston Churchill died?
If the South Africa experience is accurate, about 1/10 as many of “infected” as with “normal” COVID.
So if “infections” escalate by > 10% that might be reason for concern.
And how many “infections” are merely false positives?
The ultimate goal is to scare people into getting more jabs that’s what all measures are ultimately aimed at from mask orders to lockdowns to increased testing etc. etc.
“Bring out your dead!”
Don’t step on yer dick..
Tranlslation: Britain’s NHS is incompetent.
How many were vaxxed?
Pandemic of the Jabbed.
We were warned, by REAL docs, last year, about this.
Death rate, negligible. The Omicron variant truly is the sweet and sour sniffles.
this is the most common OMICRON trick being used by FakeNewsMSM. say omicron/omicron/omicron, then throw in a percentage increase and lead the public to conflate the high numbers with omicron!
“The move came as the number of patients in London hospitals increased 29 percent over the last week. The city has confirmed 65,525 new cases in the last week and 26,418 cases in the last day...”
ask most people and they probably think
Uber liberal London, with the Muslim mayor, is having these issues.
How about the rest of England?
Stop thinking and asking questions. Just trust the panicked tone of the article and do whatever you’re told.
