The World Health Organization has
named the latest variant of Covid-19 identified by South Africa as
Omicron! This Variant was first sequenced in Botswana, and then in
neighbouring South Africa's capital, Pretoria.
Typo error for the word "last". It should be "latest"
A group of students returning
to Africa took the PCR tests which all contained an anomaly. This had
prompted Africa's virus experts to send their samples to Prof de
Oliviera's laboratory in Dubai for genome sequencing.
"His team
then found all these mutations. So we've only know about it for a few
days, and because it's a new variant we have no idea how it will
actually behave," said Prof Salim Karim, former Chair of the South
African government's Covid Advisory Committee.
"All we can do is
extrapolate some of the likely behaviour based on previous similar
mutations. But we do know that it spreads fast - we've seen how rapidly
it spread in Pretoria. It sky-rocketed!"
From a relatively low
base, the numbers of confirmed cases in South Africa have shot up this
week - from less than 700 on Sunday to almost 2,500 on Thursday. It is
believed the increase is largely due to the new variant, Omicron.
South
Africa's vaccination programme has slowed in recent months - not
because of a lack of vaccines supplies, but due to public's fear of the
mRNA experimental 'vaccines' that have caused unnecessary deaths being
coverd up by the health authorities in order to prevent panicking.
An estimated about 20% of the South Africa population has been fully vaccinated and 42% are partially vaccinated.
Will
the existence of the new variant enciurage more people to get jabbed
with questionable experimental mRNA vaccines that is now known to be
ineffective to prevent infection and transmission? Some people are
hoping against hope that it will but doubtful.
The government
has urged people to come forward, saying: "Let us crush the power of the
new variant by vaccinating to limit the number of mutations."
The
problems are not with the virus. The problems are with the mRNA
experimental vaccines that have shown worldwide their efficacy is not 95
or 98% as claimed. It is at the most 18% to 44%. That means the Pharmas
have been lying.
"It's going to be a shock to the system. I
think it can have a positive effect [on vaccination rates]," happily
crowed Stavros Nicolaou, a senior executive at Aspen Pharmacare Group.
"We
know this variant is more contagious. My sense is that the current
vaccines are likely to reduce morbidity. They might not be as effective
in terms of preventing people getting infected. All the more reason, if
you've got a more contagious variant, that you should go out and get
vaccinated." The same snake oil selling tactic is immediately being used
again.
And many silly government leaders are going to imitate the crows of these snake oil sellers very soon.
The
bigger concern is the potential impact of the Omicron variant as it has
already spread to other parts of the African Continent and some
countries as far as UK and Hongkong, and most probably also to Australia
and Singapore. All these destinations are favorites of White South
Africans and their White relatives and friends.
More and more
European countries are following UK's footsteps to ban travellers to and
from South Africa and five other neighbouring countries.
Warning:
Don't
throw caution to the wind again. If leaders truly care for their
people, saving lives is naturally, morally and conscientiously more
important than making more money and the increase of the GDP, probably
because Ministers annual bonuses are pecked to the GDP.
It is
time to stop this unholy pecking of Ministers' bonuses and pay increase
to the GDP, so that Ministers can solely and soul-searchingly focus
their full attention and maximise their energy to serving the people
instead of serving the GDP or themselves!

Covid-19: Omicron - The New Variant Of Concern Is Highly Contagious!

Those who think that the pandemic can be whitewashed as over by living with the virus and wanting to quickly open up, better think twice. Hold your horses. As long as evil men and women continue with their evil deeds to harm the weak, to keep the vaccines to themselves and to continue to spread the virus, to start wars, there will be more dangerous viruses to appear to destroy these evil men and women.
With the virus ravaging all over the world, the evil white savages are happily inciting wars and conflicts all over the world, to preserve their world domination. Destroy the world, keep every busy in trouble and in war, and they will be there to supply the arms and disinformation to keep the fire burning, the wars going, the killings non stop, and refugees everywhere when nations become dysfunctional and cannot look after their own affairs and people.
Delta and Omicron are just the beginning until the evil white savages are destroyed.
We can now see a pattern of the spread of the Covid-19 coronavirus created by the Evil US and Evil Whitemen.
Firstly, Phase 1 of the Biological Warfare, they tried to reduce,destroy and/or annihilate the largest population in the World, ie the Chinese in China.
Next, Phase II of the Biological Warfare, they created the Delta Variant to reduce, destroy and/or the Indian population, the second largest population in the world.
Now, Phase III of the Biological Warfare, they created the Omicron to reduce, destroy and/or annihilate the Africans in Africa, the third largest population in the world.
Next, the Evil Whites will be embarking on a new Variant to reduce, destroy and/or annihilate the Latin Americans.
Finally, the Mother Nature that does not like evil people, will send all the Various Covid-19 Variants back to the Evil USA, Evil UK and Evil Whitemen countries such as Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Europe.
Watch YouTube doc John Campbell talk about WHO report on omicron.26.nov
Hongkong has reported two imported cases of the new more contagious Omicron variant.
Israel has also reported a few cases of the new Omicron variant imported from Malawi.
Suppose this is the right time to announce the new variant or product, after people have carried the virus overseas. Did those countries of origin immediately lock down? I guess not. Lock in not taken, now lock out is too late.
Announce after the virus left the country must be the most opportunistic decision.

Hope we are right that no cases of Omicron virus here, yet. I say yet!
Otherwise, time to go back to dine in two again. If this happens again I don't know what to say. I also don't know how many more booster shots more to go. Maybe I won't die of the virus, but get killed by the vaccine poisoning syndrome.
Covid-19 Omicron: Thailand Bans Entry From 8 African Countries. What About Singapore?
Thailand said on Saturday (Nov 27) it would ban the entry of people travelling from eight African countries it designated as high-risk for the new Omicron variant of COVID-19.
Starting in December, travel from Botswana, Eswatini, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa and Zimbabwe, will be prohibited, senior health official Opas Karnkawinpong told a news conference.
Thailand will not allow travellers from these countries to register to travel to Thailand starting on Saturday, he said.
The announcement comes as other countries in Asia tighten borders over worries about the B 1.1.529 variant.
The World Health Organization designated it the latest "Variant of Concern", saying it may spread more quickly than other forms.
"We have notified airlines and these countries," Opas said adding that travellers from other African countries will not be allowed to use the country's quarantine-free travel scheme for vaccinated travellers.
What about Singapore. Still as usual wait and see? Monitoring closely first. Slow to react and even slower to act? Ministers everyday counting how many millions already amassed in their bank accounts and where to buy the next property?
Wake up! OYK! Do something good for Singaporeans for once, for goodness sake. Stop the new Omicron from entering Singapore immediately.
No more wait and see, please. No more monitoring closely and the base on belated hindsight to react when it is too late.
New COVID-19 Variant, Omicron Triggered Global Stocks Sell Out
The discovery of a new coronavirus variant, now named Omicron by the World Health Organization (WHO), has triggered global alarm on Friday (Nov 26) as countries rushed to suspend travel from some African countries and stock markets on both sides of the Atlantic suffered their biggest falls in more than a year.
The WHO Chief said Omicron may spread more quickly than other variants, and preliminary evidence suggested there is an increased risk of reinfection for both vaccinated and unvaccinated.
The spread of the Omicron is 500% faster than the Delta Variant. However, it is too early to know whether it is more deadly or able to evade the present vaccines.
.
On Friday, the Belgian government said an individual who had recently traveled from Egypt and was unvaccinated, tested positive for the variant, marking the first case in Europe.
So, it is probable that Egypt has already been infested by the Omicron variant. And where did the virus entered Egypt from?
The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control said Friday, given the variant's "immune escape potential and potentially increased transmissibility advantage compared to Delta," there is a "high to very high" risk it will spread in Europe.
Somehow something is very fishy. All the expurts are claiming that this is 500 times more infectious. And it has happened for at least a few weeks, where is the huge explosion of infected cases?
If the variant is so infectious, if one passenger in the plane is infected, the whole plane load is likely to be infected.
Where is the evidence of widespread infection except crying wolf to frighten the whole world and the pharma companies going to laugh all the way to the bank again.
Crying wolf is now a big business.
500%. Not 500 times. You are blowing it up.
500% means 5 times, my friend.
Now, who is crying wolf?
South Africa has said it is being “punished” for detecting a new coronavirus variant known as the Omicron variant.
The variant has prompted several countries to impose restrictions such as travel bans on several African countries, while others have renewed lockdowns over the new strain.
The ban on flights following the discovery of the variant “is akin to punishing South Africa for its advanced genomic sequencing and the ability to detect new variants quicker,” the foreign affairs ministry said in a statement.
The new restrictions come after the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the new COVID-19 variant to be “of concern”.
AMSTERDAM: Dutch health authorities said that 61 people who arrived in Amsterdam on two flights from South Africa on Friday (Nov 26) tested positive for COVID-19, and they were conducting further testing early Saturday to see if any of the infections are with the recently discovered Omicron coronavirus variant.
Around 600 passengers arrived at Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport on the two KLM flights on Friday and then faced hours of delays and testing due to concerns over the new virus variant.

The Dutch health ministry said early Saturday 61 tests had come back positive.
"Travellers with a positive test result will be placed in isolation at a hotel at or near Schiphol," health authorities said in a statement.
"Of the positive test results, we are researching as quickly as possible whether they are the new variant of concern, now named 'Omicron'."
The Dutch government banned all air travel from southern Africa early on Friday. Health Minister Hugo de Jonge determined that passengers already en route to the Netherlands would have to undergo testing and quarantine upon arrival.

Omicron Variant
1. The new Variant is already out in the world.
2. The only type of border closure that can keep it out is a complete and permanent one. This will not happen.
3. The new variant will come to Singapore. It’s a matter of when not if.
4. The new variant appears to be outcompeting even Delta.
5. There is a likelihood that with so many mutations, the new variant could be resistant to current vaccines.
6. mRNA vaccines are still our best hope in the short run. The technology allows vaccine makers to quickly produce new vaccines.
7. The challenge is that if brand new vaccines need to be made, we will again have a supply issue like in early 2021.
8. In the medium term, there will be therapeutics.
9. If the Omicron variant is resistant to current vaccines, and it outcompetes delta faster than a new vaccine can be manufactured, the world will enter another crisis from Q2 2022.
10. By the end of next year, there will however be effective therapeutics. mRNA vaccine manufacturing is also getting more efficient.
11. Those countries and people who are resistant to mRNA vaccines will be increasingly left behind. The vaccines using inactivated virus technology, based on the original virus, will be rendered especially useless.

Israel on ‘verge of state of emergency’ over new coronavirus variant
Israel is on the “verge of a state of emergency”, the country’s prime minister warned after a worrying new coronavirus variant was detected in at least three people.
The Middle Eastern country on Friday imposed a travel ban covering most of Africa after detecting its first case of the Nu variant, also known as B1.1.529, in a traveller who had returned from Malawi.
Scientists are concerned about the new variant, which could be more contagious than the Delta strain.
The health ministry said the traveller and two other suspected cases, all of whom had been vaccinated, had been placed in isolation.
“We are currently on the verge of a state of emergency,” prime minister Naftali Bennett said on Friday before expanding a travel ban he announced a day earlier on the entry of foreigners from seven African countries and Israelis’ travel to them.
Under the broader restrictions, all African nations, except those in North Africa, have been added to Israel’s “red list” of high-risk countries.
According to Arieh Kovler, a political analyst and writer based in Jerusalem, one of the cases detected in Israel was a 32-year-old woman returning from South Africa who was triple vaccinated with Pfizer and had her third dose just two months ago.
Another was a hotel worker from Malawi who had been given her second dose of the AstraZeneca jab in mid-July, while a third infected person had her second Johnson & Johnson dose two months ago, he added.
Downing Street said the UK was still at “an early stage” of understanding the B.1.1.529 variant and could not yet tell whether the current Covid-19 vaccines available might need updating in order to fight it.
There are fears the variant, detected in South Africa, Botswana, Hong Kong and Israel, could be highly transmissible, more deadly and make vaccines and treatments less effective.
A spokesman for the British prime minister, asked whether the government expected a “specific” vaccine to be needed for the variant, told reporters: “We are in an early stage and, as the health secretary said today, there remains a high degree of uncertainty, which is why it is important that the work is being undertaken internationally to understand more about the variant.
“But I would point you back to what the scientific experts - I think it was the chief scientific adviser (Sir Patrick Vallance) - who spoke a while ago about the new technologies in terms of vaccines and the ability to tweak them as required if we need to.”
How many of you still believe in the efficacy of the mRNA drugs?
How many of you believe in the data on the surge in infection cases in the US and Europe? Does the surge at this point in time, 2 years after the pandemic started and 1 year after mRNA wonder drug was used tell anything about how good or how fake this drug is? Or are they saying without this drug it would have been worse?
How many of you believe that some countries using this drug are actually seeing a real decline in their infection rates? Or the decline is due to not testing and scaling down of testing?
Yes, as you have predicted, the wait and see monitoring or tracking very closely is always the modus operandi:
"Singapore is tracking the emerging Omicron COVID-19 variant 'very closely', and could be forced to take a few steps back again before taking more steps forward, said Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong ."
Omicron COVID variant CONFIRMED in Australia, NSW Health says
The concerning new COVID variant Omicron has reached Australian shores, NSW Health has confirmed.
Both passengers came to Sydney from southern Africa on the evening of Saturday November 27. They underwent testing on arrival and tested positive for COVID-19 late Saturday night.
The two positive cases, who were asymptomatic, are in isolation in the Special Health Accommodation.
Both are fully vaccinated.
The two passengers were amongst fourteen people from southern Africa who arrived on Qatar Airways QR908, Doha to Sydney, which arrived around 7pm, Saturday November 27.
The remaining 12 passengers from southern Africa are undertaking 14 days of hotel quarantine in the Special Health Accommodation.
Around 260 passengers and air crew on the flight are considered close contacts and have been directed to isolate.

FDA Produces the First 91+ pages of Documents from Pfizer’s COVID-19 Vaccine File
Only 54 years, 11 months to go…
Two months and one day after it was sued, and close to 3 months since it licensed Pfizer’s Covid-19 vaccine, the FDA released the first round of documents it reviewed before licensing this product. The production consisted of 91 pdf pages, one xpt file, and one txt file.
You can download them here.
https://phmpt.org/pfizers-documents/
While it is for the scientists to properly analyze, let me share one observation. One of the documents produced is a Cumulative Analysis of Post-Authorization Adverse Event Reports of [the Vaccine] Received Through 28-Feb-2021, which is a mere 2 ½ months after the vaccine received emergency use authorization (EUA). This document reflects adverse events following vaccination that have completed Pfizer’s “workflow cycle,” both in and outside the U.S., up to February 28, 2021.
Pfizer explains, on page 6, that “Due to the large numbers of spontaneous adverse event reports received for the product, [Pfizer] has prioritised the processing of serious cases…” and that Pfizer “has also taken a [sic] multiple actions to help alleviate the large increase of adverse event reports” including “increasing the number of data entry and case processing colleagues” and “has onboarded approximately [REDACTED] additional fulltime employees (FTEs).” Query why it is proprietary to share how many people Pfizer had to hire to track all of the adverse events being reported shortly after launching its product.
As for the volume of reports, in the 2 ½ months following EUA, Pfizer received a total of 42,086 reports containing 158,893 “events.” Most of these reports were from the U.S. and disproportionately involved women (29,914 vs. 9,182 provided by men) and those between 31 and 50 years old (13,886 vs 21,325 for all other age groups combined, with another 6,876 whose ages were unknown). Also, 25,957 of the events were classified as “Nervous system disorders”
Females between the ages of 30 and 51. Nervous system disorders. That sounds familiar. As a matter of fact, that sounds similar to the concerns raised by some of the women testifying or described in the videos below.
But no cause for alarm since Pfizer explains to the FDA: “The findings of these signal detection analyses are consistent with the known safety profile of the vaccine.” So if they knew these issues were going to arise, then why didn’t they appear to have enough staff to process this expected volume of reports? The grand conclusion by Pfizer to the FDA: “The data do not reveal any novel safety concerns or risks requiring label changes and support a favorable benefit risk profile of to the BNT162b2 vaccine.”
Nothing to see here. Just ask all those women.
