Omicron.

[oggbashan]

We already are. We have a tory government.

We'd be far deeper with Starmer's Labour, or horror, his predecessor whose name I can't type without expletive deleted.

"How often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth?"

I suggest you re-read Sir Arthur. Or are you suggesting the wet market theory is impossible?

For the for the past year-and-a-half, a serious toned announcer leads off with C O R O N A V I R U S . . .in ARIZONA!!!!

Just now, this woman followed deep voice announcer dude leading off with, "As coronavirus cases and deaths continue to climb in Arizona. . ."

Number of deaths?

Zero.

That's a neat trick to climb to zero from presumably a negative number of deaths

 

[oggbashan]

In the UK tonight's news stated that the number of omicron cases is doubling every two days, and the first hospitalizations have started with one death attributed to omicron.

 

[Bray123]

I really don't understand the obsession with the origin of Covid - was it made or did it escape.

It's like worrying about whether the driver of a truck originated from Mexico or Haiti when it's barreling towards you on a pedestrian crossing. Jump out of the way moron, it doesn't matter right now.

Get vaccinated, wear a mask in crowded places. Worry about 'Chyna' later.

Arizona deaths by covid: 23,040.
Total US deaths: over 800K. Only 500K less than all US deaths in all wars since the US was founded.

Are there excess deaths in the US over 800,000? No.

Deaths "by" covid is not even close to accurate to describing a very mild virus that has the effect of lowering your blood oxygen levels. Unless you are already critically deficient in blood oxygenation there is absolutely nothing to fear here.

Have you decided what you're going to be afraid of next when the deaths drop to zero for exactly the same reason that nobody dies of the Spanish flu anymore?

 

[LukSkyFokker]

Dr. Coronager is still on his bullshit. TFF.

 

[Chernosoth]

Death. Materialists don't believe in afterlife or reincarnation. When this life is the only life, people need something else beyond death, which was commonly the belief that future generations will have better lives. That belief has been eroding for a while, as life keeps getting worse. Now there's a virus. Ooo, scary. That guy next to you could kill you by breathing. Many could die while still shrieking mad about unfairness of death or similar BS, and others will get religion.

My belief is a practical version of reincarnation. With billions of people on the planet and not that much variation of human personality, I assume something close enough to a clone of me will be born many more times around the world for the next few million years.

Hmmm…try explaining that to my otherwise healthy Covid positive.friend. Oh wait, they died a few weeks ago.

How are people still missing the big picture???

This is not only about deaths.

This is about not overwhelming hospitals to the point that they can't attend to regular business.

It is also about opening up society to everyone by reducing infections to the point that the elderly and people with other comorbidities don't feel like they're constantly being exposed to the virus.

Talk about losing your "freedom" or having it infringed upon. Think about those who are being confined because a significant number of younger healthier citizens refuse to get a simple vaccination.

Selfish pricks.

Just saw a report that ARIZONA has a hospital bed shortage.

Dr. Coronager fails again.

Freedom doesn't need scare quotes. It's an actual thing.

'So they don't "feel" like' does need scare quotes. I'm not responsible for your fears and insecurities. Those happen inside your head.

“The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said that of the 43 cases attributed to Omicron variant, 34 people had been fully vaccinated. Fourteen of them had also received a booster, although five of those cases occurred less than 14 days after the additional shot before full protection kicks in.”

We still don't know much about Omnicron except that case numbers in the UK are doubling every week. It appears to be much more transmittable than the Delta variant but whether it causes severe disease? We don't know and won't for a few weeks yet. We can hope that it is milder.

The UK is going hard to get everyone with a third jab because it seems two aren't enough to deter Omnicron but three jabs seem to provide 75% protection.

So far the numbers of hospitalizations in the UK seem to have plateaued at a lowish level but the impact of Omnicro hasn't really come through yet.

If Omicron is transmitted more easily and produces some hospitalizations? We in the UK could be in deep shit.

If I've been keeping up properly it also seems to be less likely to cause severe reactions. Which to me a mixed bag of "well its less likely to kill you" but do we really want to let our gaurd down knowing it might mutate again? I know the only reason I'm not exhausted of this shit is that it has become a game.

Followed soon by a fourth jab...

Nothing's impossible. The 'wet market' theory is becoming more improbable over time for the same reasons given. NO natural source has shown itself. The more time passes without a natural source being found the heavier the burden of suspicion that falls on that lab.

The CCP has lied about virtually every aspect of this virus since the beginning. To say their credibility is shot would be an understatement.

 

[Champakian]

Additionally, they took the WHO down with them.

Our government is falling all over itself to be next in that line...

There are certainly enclaves within the government that seem to have that as a goal. Going to be interesting to see the reactions when this particular variant really starts to spread.

Speaking of spreading, looking at the rate which Delta spread and now being followed up by Omicron it would seem to me that folks should be becoming aware that there is nothing the various governments can do. They can make noises and issue orders but the virus just doesn't care.

 

[Champakian]

We beat the flu!


We'll beat this!

​

 

[Champakian]

We will assiduously count deaths as the metric that matters,
but never seem to recognize the economic damage that government,
in its zeal to protect us, has caused, a far greater harm to us in the long run.

As an example, we can see the economically disadvantaged by the crippling of the economy,
beginning to engage in organized smash and grab operations
which are dismissed by pro-lockdown politics
as the product of imagination.

But, in truth, many of those people will quickly link a bad storm to climate change
as an obvious no-brainer that only deniers cannot discern as literal truth...

 

[oggbashan]

Followed soon by a fourth jab...

Probably a jab every year like for flu...

 

[Champakian]

Which is rarely all that efficacious...


I never get a flu shot.

Jeremy Corbyn. No expletive needed.

Unlike that enemy of the state Thatcher.

Mind you, the arse faced cunt johnson is just a walking fuck up, responsible for the deaths of thousands.

But then again, you already knew that.

Hope that helps.

 

[Champakian]

Covid, via China and the WHO, are the parties responsible for the deaths.


It's not the leaders of "the opposition" party
(or even the leaders of your party unless it is the Communist Party).

If it wasn't for that person I won't mention, we wouldn't have a Conservative government. He wrecked the Labour party's chances of winning an election.
