We no longer have CUOMO BROS. to lead the charge so I thought I would.

They passed over Xi in the alphabet because of the obvious President Xi Jinping implications, lol.

WHO skips two letters in Greek alphabet in naming Omicron COVID variant

The emergence of the Omicron variant of COVID-19 has international health experts worried, financial markets stumbled — and the Internet baffled over how the new name was chosen.

Amazing, now that’s a story…wonder why it only hits 5 media camps.

 

[JackPrintMD]

I see it’s mainstream now…Disney must have approved.

So OMICRON is a joke and only CORONA is the real concern?

The same as all the other strains of COVID-19, since it’s the same virus. Wear a mask, keep away from crowded spaces and get jabbed & boosted!!

Should we start a new thread for each new season of The Walking Dead??

Want me to cite the Amino Acid sequence changes in the Spike Protein??

Here you go...

OMICRON’S SPIKE MUTATIONS

Omicron carries about 50 mutations not seen in combination before, including more than 30 mutations on the spike protein that the coronavirus uses to attach to human cells.

Omicron’s spike protein has several mutations that are found in other variants of concern and that are thought to make the virus more infectious, including D614G, N501Y and K417N.

More research is needed to determine whether Omicron’s collection of mutations will enable the variant to evade immunity from vaccines or infections. It’s also not clear yet whether the disease it causes is more or less severe than other variants.

Since Roccus is clearly the only person who has any legitimate knowledge on the subject I'll pay attention to what he says and avoid the same nonsense that everyone else has spewed for a year and a half in the other thread.

 

[OVERBORED]

The primary concerns which have yet to be determined are:

1) Does it cause severe illness? Thus far it seems like it does not but its yet to be determined.

2) Will it respond to current vaccines? Still no word on that.

Omicron has been in circulation for weeks so its probably here.

I think they should rename Covid, terminator. It just can't be eliminated........oh, wait.........it could if everyone was vaccinated!

None of it matters
We’re all going to get it
We’re all going to either get over it
Or
Not

the rest will go on with this new version of the flu

the sooner you all get that through your heads the easier this will all become

if you can’t see that your simply blind or can’t form a Rational thought without some egg head leading you around by the nose

And that is exactly why I said what I did last night
I don't need another thread to read everybody's BS opinions that mean nothing to me...
This is a case in point.
When certain people reference others abilities to have rational thoughts it turns the entire thing into comedy hour rather than a discussion

 

[TonySmjc]

Don’t like it don’t look

 

[Chinacat]

Don’t like it don’t look

I try not to
I've had you on ignore for quite some time and I have no clue why I see you

 

[TonySmjc]

Because you secretly love it

 

[OVERBORED]

Ignore the problem and it will go away!

Brilliant! ?
