Covid: Is a horrible variant coming?

Death rate seems very low. Only 8 deaths out of 3,220 cases. Yeah, it is a heck of a lot more transmissible than delta, but much less deadly. Probably even less deadly than seasonal flu.

It's important for all of us to keep everyone informed by continually blasting out statistics like you did today.

As we know, the media and the greedy medical people who make money from these diseases, are not going to tell the truth.

To develop their first vax they took almost a year and went through phases 1, 2, 3 and regulatory process, although it was rushed in operation warp speed. If they don't do that, then no one will buy their vax.

Methinks they were already beholden to buy them, as soon as the WHO™ declared the Scamdemic™.

We were all sold down the river a long time ago.

Do not hold your breath, we all know how fascist puppy killer fauci, CDC and pharma has gotten around all rules and protocols in the name of profits.

Lets hope people are smarter now to see the truth from the crap that media is been inundating us with this days.

Pfizer and over all pharmas have records of deceptions, lies and trail of dead people from their miracle cures and the law sues to prove it.

Don't forget we can vote them out just like what happened at Virginia governor election.

I truly hope soo, but the democrats will use this new variant as a excuse to benefit themselves.

a reply to: marg6043

They can try. But people will leave their states in droves if they do.

Oh my Cron ... much ado about nothing.

So far reports from South Africa are that this is less dangerous even than delta.

According to Dr Angelique Coetzee, who chairs the South African Medical Association, her country has seen only “very mild cases” so far. She describes the reaction in other countries to the variant as “a storm in a teacup.”

Dr. Coetzee says:

[The new variant] presents mild disease with symptoms being sore muscles and tiredness for a day or two not feeling well. So far, we have detected that those infected do not suffer loss of taste or smell. They might have a slight cough. There are no prominent symptoms. Of those infected some are currently being treated at home.

Coetzee adds a caveat, though. The patients she’s aware of are mostly healthy men. She believes that as the variant spreads to older, unvaccinated people, “we are going to see many people with. . .severe [symptoms].” But as long as the severe symptoms are largely confined to old folks who are unvaccinated, there is a solution — vaccinating those among the elderly who don’t want to assume the risk posed by the variant.

So they are getting their knickers in a wad over a day or two of symptoms less annoying than their own vaccine gives you?

I believe if this turns out to be very transmissible and very mild, it pose a threat to big pharma's profits, and big pharma would attempt to develop new vaccine against it and force Biden administration to force every person to take new vax. Just say no to the circus.

It does look to be extremely transmissible, yet the infections so far appear to be milder than previous variants. That's good news to me if this does turn out to be the case. It's still too early to predict the numbers of serious illness.

Why does this variant not show up on the CDC radar? Or, is it on this list under a name other than Omicron?

I'm going with they are not updating anything. This administration is far less transparent than the last one when it comes to covid. For instance, the public version of the DHS master question list hasn't been updated for nearly a month. When Trump was President, it was updated every Thursday, sometimes Friday, without fail.

Shows you bureaucracy is never efficient.

Agree, faster natural induced immunity, I see how pharma maybe be worry about this variant, they may not want too many people with natural immunity.

a reply to: carewemust

Sounds like a regular cold to me and probably that is all to it, virus do what they are mean to do, die out in their own.

Don't fear the Moronic Variant. They need you to fear because they fear you.

I hate to be "that guy," but... Some moderate to severe cases of the new one are turning up in S. Africa. About 3/4 are unvaccinated. The majority of the remainder is among the partially vaccinated. Patients being admitted to the icu are younger... in their 20s and 30s. I didn't check to see if that represents the demographic with greatest numbers of unvaccinated or not. The hospitals are still not overwhelmed.

Sorry to be "that guy" but the vaccine isn't going to work if the variant is, well, different enough. Putting vaccine percentage into a statement like that is asinine. Take vaccine completely off the table if the new variant is different enough.

I won't complain if you are right. It's financially better for me when the hospitals overflow.

That means they want to use Covid as a tool to enable election cheating again. Also, Anthony Fauci is guaranteeing the Omicron variant will be coming to the USA.

After the Covid overhype, most intelligent people now know to double-check the statistics and data, as new warnings are issued.
