On SKY NEWS just now..
“The WHO has said it would have severe consequences for the world if it spreads”
“The risk is assessed as ‘very high’”
“The world is faced with a new highly transmissible variant of covid 19”
“Omicron is the most heavily mutated variant of covid-19…. but as it was only reported last week …”
So hold on a minute. If this variant was “only reported last week” why is WHO making all these claims about it?
@divegeester saidSky news isn’t reporting very accurately.

The WHO has labelled it a variant of concern. It may be transmitted more easily than other variants, it has lots of mutations and for the rest more research is needed.

know about COVID?
@great-king-rat saidAlso omricon is an anagram of moronicO, so obviously it’s Italian!
OMICRON
ONCOMIR
“An oncomir (also oncomiR) is a microRNA (miRNA) that is associated with cancer. MicroRNAs are short RNA molecules about 22 nucleotides in length.”
Coincidence? I think so!
@divegeester saidThe virus keeps mutating,
Anyone want to address the point in the OP?
hard to catch up to. As long as
people (we know who they are)
resist getting vaccinated, the virus
has a place to 'breed' and the Ionger it
wiII hang on. A crash program, as was done
for smallpox & polio, might work. Seems as if COVID may be
with us for years to come.

The original post is about the W.H.O. not knowing what the hell they are talking about.
The new variant is a week old and the W.H.O. is acting like it's death incarnate.
They don't know anything about it or what it might be like yet.
Covid has really made scientists and the W.H.O. look a lot less credible.
@jimm619 saidyou fools keep thinking the vaccines prevent the spread of covid…a direct result of state run media

@divegeester saidThought I did....New variants
Perhaps you didn’t read the OP.
may be more transmittable
simply because;
There's no 'natural resistance''
and they (new virus) may ave defeated vaccine immunology.
