    When the WHO named the “mu” variant in August, “nu” was next in line. But the WHO decided to skip it over because officials felt the letter was too similar to the English word “new,” which could have led to a bit of confusion. Then came “xi,” but the WHO also decided to nix it because it is the same as the common last name Xi and using it would violate the organization’s guidelines to name diseases. The WHO always seeks to “avoid causing offense to any cultural, social, national, regional, professional or ethnic groups,” the organization said in a statement.

    South Africa is being punished for identifying the variant and sharing the info, when, as you say, it's probably already circulating undetected in the US.

    http://www.dirco.gov.za/docs/2021/covid-19_1127.htm
    if it wasn't well known that public health is in the USA, it is now. profits before people, always.


    "they are punished by not letting them come to the US when they have no confirmed cases"

    "The US has ty public health care! Just look at all the confirmed cases!"

    NIH director says get a booster if you are worried about Omicron.

    That'll hold you over until the Omicron booster is available.

    So booster no longer teaches your body how to fight future variants?

    lol how are you reading that into it?

    I just posted the statement of the NIH director and what Pfizer/Moderna are saying.

    You're the one taking it as somehow antivaxxer. Why are you so sensitive about having gotten a booster shot? Are you planning on getting another one because of Omicron?

    I don't know why you're getting so mad. Eventually I'll get a 3rd shot too, if there is evidence I should. There's nothing wrong with you getting your 4th shot if you are concerned about Omicron, it's probably safe.

    NY state suspends elective surgeries. Last year we had shelter in place orders to try and prevent this sort of thing from happening, now we meekly accept healthcare rationing and death panels.

    The edict curbing non-essential surgeries will kick in for hospitals with a limited capacity — defined as at or below 10 percent of available staffed bed capacity.


    The new protocols will take effect on Friday, Dec. 3, and will be re-evaluated based on the latest COVID-19 data on Jan. 15.

    But it does create a manufactured dip in the stocks so that those pulling levers can make a quick smash and grab.

    That's our missing workforce...

    1 million dead and 10 million disabled. Its just the flu!!
    Lots of people taking early retirement. Some who would otherwise have waited a few years decided to forego dealing with the chances of getting COVID near retirement age through their job contacts and took off early. This is a sizeable chunk of workers, many with decades of experience that's very hard to replace since in many cases no succession plan was created.
