He’s crediting the booster vaccines, rather than admitting that omicron itself is relatively mild in most people.

If we don’t give the experimental gene therapies to little kids, how else will we be able to collect the data?

Corona virus deaths in Ireland are slightly higher than they were during the seven months prior to the roll-out of the vaccines. Cases were WAY higher (several hundred percent) than before the vaccines.

Except Omicron hardly ever kills anybody. Therefore there is no “storm of Omicron variant”.
Let the AP keep spewing out far left propaganda. It's not working.

I was wondering how quickly the dominos would start falling after the UK announcement. Hopefully the trend will continue. Part of me feels the world was just waiting for someone to be the first so they could follow suit. You'd hope the US would have the balls to lead the way, but we're no longer Reagan's America...

Indoor and outdoor venues are also set to return to full capacity, paving the way for full crowds at next month's Six Nations rugby championship.

England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, France, and Italy. They probably will follow Ireland's lead .

South Africa is also a large Rugby country... so are Australia and New Zealand, but I doubt the last two I mentioned will follow anytime soon. 😒😔
