Oh, Here We Go Again….
A new coronavirus variant is coming out of South Africa, NOT the USA or Europe. South Africa. It is labeled the Omicron variant, and Fauci can’t claim this one for himself. It is apparently very aggressive, but I have not seen any reports on its level of lethality.
In the comment I posted yesterday, about the Black Death plagues in Europe, and how they came and went, and that was in the days when bleeding someone was thought to cure diseases, it was plain as day that they went virulent – on a rampage – until they ran out of victims. The same thing happened with the Spanish Flu after WWI, when American troops returning from Europe brought it home with them. It went around twice and then backed off.
This one? It looks like a nasty mutation that occurred on its own. Mutations are natural occurrences which take place all the time. The exception is that the coronavirus organism is especially aggressive, but this is its first rodeo, too, and vaccines are available to block the current bug from this past year.
This new Omicron variant is just that: a new and previously unknown mutation. No vaccine is available yet to prevent it. Currently, it is found in South Africa, but as the article below indicates, some 60 people were found positive when they got off the plane and the others simply scattered, possibly to catch other flights.
Here’s a quote from that article:
As yet more countries placed travel bans on southern Africa early Saturday for fear of a new and possibly more dangerous variant of the coronavirus, the passengers on two flights from South Africa found themselves caught in a pandemic nightmare.
After about 30 hours squeezed together in the planes, crammed buses and then in waiting rooms, 61 of the more than 500 passengers on those flights had tested positive and been quarantined. They were being checked for Omicron, named by the World Health Organization just on Friday as a “variant of concern,” its most serious category.
Everyone else, according to Stephanie Nolen, The New York Times’s global health reporter, who was on one of the planes, “has scattered to the world.” – article
Now READ THAT LAST PHRASE AGAIN: Everyone else has scattered to the world. That’s an exaggeraton by NYT, but you get the drift. These people are carrying a mutated version (variant) of the bug, one that occurred on its own, most likely on their own clothing and accessories.
If this is a new variant, which is one that occurred on its own, the mutation is self-induced by the bug.
While South Africa is scrambling to contain this mess, the other people on that flight were exposed and like the bubonic plague in the Middle Ages, may simply be carrying the bug on their clothing and personal items like briefcases, luggage or purses… or even credit cards.
The nonsense that any government can contain this bug is just that: pure nonsense. It is going to run its course, period, no matter what any government tries to do to stop it, and other mutations will occur until it has run its course. That’s it in a nutshell. While it has not appeared here, a mutation can occur here without this new bug present at all.
Fauci is a jerk, period. If you want to print out a large image of him and throw (empty) beer cans at it, do so if it makes you feel better. Go chop some wood for the fireplace if you have one, but we’re still a free country, no matter what those +==+holes in WDC think of us. Try to be patient with them. They are a bunch of little kids who think they are running the school playground when they are not.

Travel bans are racist, unless Joe’s Handlers deem it necessary.
Then it’s fine.
“If this is a new variant, which is one that occurred on its own, the mutation is self-induced by the bug.” Unless the mutation is induced by gene therapy masquerading as a vaccine… Charts showing the increase in prevalence of mutations overlaid with the increase in people getting the jab are far too similar to be pure coincidence..
Give Brandon credit, he’s done an amazing job in reducing the amount of racism in America of late. I mean, look at the shit he does that would be called racist when Trump did them.
Yay, progress!
The head of South Africa’s public health system says this virus has been a very mild variant so far and that other governments are totally overreacting.
Overreacting??? Ya think???
Color ol’ Poe surprised…
Exactly what Poe said here and Hondo below. A doctor in South Africa is quoted on Foxnews saying it’s very mild, with people feeling poorly for one or two days.
It bears repeating that coronaviruses cause about 30% of common colds. (Last paper I read.) They mutate – a lot – it’s what they do. It’s how they… do. They are genetically fragile (which works out for them), they lack “spell check” functions… stuff like that.
I think it’s KoB who regularly reminds us it’s not virus control, it’s people control.
So, here we go again… same old SOS again.
If they over-react enough, people who don’t can be “domestic terrorists” like parents critical of their children’s school too!
If they overreact/overreach, how will the next “variant” be reported when discovered? As soon as it’s suspected, or when the death toll becomes too large to suppress??
This “variant” sounds more contagious, but less virulent easier to catch but won’t kill you for the readers in Loma Linda, next time the area may hide the variant and create its own set of joys.
No great surprise here.
Viruses mutate – rapidly. New variants are pretty much a given with viruses in fairly short order. It’s how we get annual flu variants that require a new vaccine annually.
Precisely! Thanks, Hondo.
Also, this plant may provide a protective drug that will eliminate the virus & variants.

Watch the current admin try to make it illegal.
Seems I’ve read that typically viruses mutate/evolve to become more communicable and less lethal over time. For the virus’s survival and long-term viability, this makes sense to spread further and kill off fewer of the host. Dead hosts are a poor survival option.
WOW, this is great for the peeps who want to keep this stuff going so as to control the population with all their mandates which are for us but not for them.

Forty years down the road?
***YAWN***
Is there any more pecan pie left over from Thanksgiving?
Odd in the naming of the new variant. The next name in line was Xi. Odd the WHO skipped that and went on to the next with omicron.
Yeah, I noticed that. Although pronounced differently it is certainly spelled the same as China’s beloved leader. All of these globalist world organizations (United Nations, WHO. WTO, etc.) are mouth pieces for the CHICOMs and we pick up most of the tab.
Now, get off my lawn.
Because it’s really always been the Xi Virus!
Let’s name the COVID variants using something other than Greek letters.
Xi variant
Soros variant
UN variant
Brandon variant
Democrat variant
P.S. Let’s go Brandon!
According to this story, doesn’t seem like much.

The sky is falling, buy all the toilet paper! (Yawn. Here we go again.)
Orwell was right: “The war is not meant to be won. It is meant to be continuous.”
Oh look! The Branch Covidians are shreiking that the Panic Porn that accomplished nothing every previous time is needed again this time!
IT’S TEH COVID!!! PROTECT ME AT THE OTHER COMMISSARS BY WEARING 14 FACE MASKS AND STAYING INDOORS UNTIL WE FLATTEN THE CURVE!!! MY EMPIRIC DATA TELLS ME THAT IT WILL TAKE 14 MORE WEEKS TO FLATTEN THE CURVE! SAVE US FROM YOU BOOMERS!!!!
People Control! Move along Citizen, there will never be an Omega Booster.
PHUQUE THEEEM!
Lars loves covid masks.
A virus does 3 things. It infects, mutates and reproduces to repeat the cycle. Fortunately most mutate to a non infectious status and simply fade away, other than the “common cold”.
The common cold is believed to be caused by 200+ different viruses. Those viruses have also mutated to produce variants that only rarely cause serious illness.
The combination is probably why the “common cold” is both still around and has no vaccine.
