The U.N. health agency, in a technical brief to member states highlighted to reporters on Monday, said “considerable uncertainties” remain about the new variant that was first detected in southern Africa, but cautioned that the likelihood of possible further spread around the world was high.
Based on the possibility that mutations in omicron could escape an immune response and boost its ability to be transmitted between people, “the likelihood of potential further spread of omicron at the global level is high,” WHO said.
“Depending on these characteristics, there could be future surges of COVID-19, which could have severe consequences, depending on a number of factors including where surges may take place,” it added. “The overall global risk related to the new VOC Omicron is assessed as very high.”
An IQ test question: rearrange Omicron to form another word. Answer: Moronic. As in: the moronic faucists are so petrified with a variant which actually doesn’t cause increase in fatalities and hospitalizations, as described by the South African doctors who actually discovered this variant.
I’m so scared! I’m petrified!! I’m going to lock myself at home and never leave. I’m canceling my vacation. I’m pulling my kids out of school and getting myself a 6th booster just in case. Shaking!!!
“Risk Is ‘Very High’”Risk of what? Catching a very mild version of Covid? Not much at risk here!
This variant was only fabricated to give Isreal another excuse to yet again shutter their border so We authentic Jews are yet again being banished from our Jewish homeland, but of-course welocming in the פריצות pageant women with open arms, so we know even Israel doesn’t really belive this Omicron to really be dangerous.
