The big pharma is naming now the cold variants to make them covid, for now on is nothing but cold viruses affecting people.

And the Sun really could be a dragon with it's mouth open, and the Earth might be flat.

FYI:

Go to cov-lineages.org... and put "BA.2" in the page's search box. You'll see that this variant is primarily in Denmark, at the moment.

Omicron BA.2 is all over the world already. It's just that in Denmark it jumped to 45% of the cases in 2 weeks. That's a pretty significant spike in frequency of positive cases.


It's already all over the United States.

It's in Texas, California, New Mexico, Washington State.
Omicron BA.2 in the U.S.: What we know about the emerging ‘stealth’ variant of COVID-19

Arizona has a "handful" of cases. They won't name a specific number of cases, just a handful.
New version of omicron reported, dubbed ‘stealth omicron’, found in Arizona

Looks like as of Tuesday, January 25, 2022 that Omicron BA.2 has been found in 22 states. So almost half of the states have cases.

According to the virus sequencing database GISAID on Tuesday, there have been 88 reported samples of BA.2 in the U.S. from about 22 states including California, Arizona, and New York. Some states have only reported one case.

I don't know if they are Aliens trying to make earth a more sustainable biosphere before they reveal themselves. Or if they are just humans trying save "their" planet from global climate change.

‘Joking’ aside, I think the latter half of you statement is entirely plausible.

Exactly. That was my response to your saying covid doesn't exist and it's just influenza and no one in the world has figured it out.

No. I know plenty of people who took flu vaccines regularly. I didn't, but I would get one on occasion as I felt I wanted to hedge my bets a bit. You know ... I am having shoulder surgery, so it sure would suck to have an illness that makes me cough a lot this year with shoulder pain; let's try to avoid that if at all possible. That year I got one. This year, I didn't because I am healthy enough to withstand flu for the most part and still young enough. Give me 10 or 15 years and that equation changes.

Everyone that normally takes the flu vaccine was taking the flu vaccine, his comments are ridiculously ignorant. I get a pop-up on every patient, it happens every shift, to ask the patient if they have had or want the flu vaccine. The pop-ups dont stop until you give the vaccine or put down the patient refused. I have seen no difference from before Covid to now in flu vaccines. If anything I would say I saw MORE flu vaccines last year.

We must NOT cancel the Pandemic, or enable more freedoms while Omicron spinoff BA.2 is expanding.

It's now in 47 states!

Holy Mother of....

The Omicron subvariant known as BA.2, or unofficially as "stealth Omicron," has now been found in the vast majority of U.S. states, data shows.

The subvariant has made headlines this year after being behind an increasingly high proportion of cases in countries such as Denmark—where most new COVID cases are now BA.2—and the U.K.

The variant has also been found to a lesser extent in the U.S., where according to the variant tracking tool Outbreak.info as of Monday, it had been reported in 47 states. Outbreak.info uses data submitted to the virus genome database GISAID.

I'm just going to say two things.

Firstly, this is exactly what was predicted would happen back in 2020. It's nothing new or mysterious, and the only conspiracy here is one that involves people monitoring doom porn with click bait headlines.

Secondly, exactly as was also predicted covid has become endemic. These new variants are now the common cold by another name.

The fact that much of Europe is now standing down is evidence of both of the above. They knew that this was going to happen and they accept that covid is now a low threat, so they are going back to business as usual ore pandemic. As I've said before this was predicted, not planned, and the domino are falling.

The conspiracy is debunking itself.

If President Biden cancels the Covid-19 National Emergency we're living under, things will get back to normal faster in most of the country. The Vaccine Mandates in many cities and states will no longer be legally enforceable.
