The world may be taken by surprise but that doesn’t include us. It remains to be seen whether Omicron can outcompete Delta (to be confirmed). If that’s the case, we’re definitely not in good shape.
In case of CoV, innate immunity protects the individual and the ‘herd’ ( sterilizing immunity, no natural selection pressure, herd immunity) whereas adaptive immunity induced with leaky vaccines has exactly the opposite effect.
THE big Q is whether such an immune escape variant could even resist naturally acquired Abs in people who recovered from C19 disease. I am, indeed, cautious and worried about ADE, even in the unvaccinated who recovered from C-19 disease as they may no longer be able to control viral infection. ADE would equal ‘enhanced virulence’. Difficult to predict.
Mass vaccination has compressed the evolutionary trajectory of the virus from a few hundred years (?) down to one year. Hope that naturally primed individuals can deal with that speed.
It is my sincere desire to provide readers of this site with the best unbiased information available, and a forum where it can be discussed openly, as our Founders intended. But it is not easy nor inexpensive to do so, especially when those who wish to prevent us from making the truth known, attack us without mercy on all fronts on a daily basis. So each time you visit the site, I would ask that you consider the value that you receive and have received from The Burning Platform and the community of which you are a vital part. I can't do it all alone, and I need your help and support to keep it alive. Please consider contributing an amount commensurate to the value that you receive from this site and community, or even by becoming a sustaining supporter through periodic contributions.

“Hope that naturally primed individuals can deal with that speed.”
I feel the naturally primed have a better shot at not getting sick surviving then those who joined the shot of the month club.
there are millions of us who agree with you.
They are calling it an “African variant”? The one continent it couldn’t possibly have come from, because they aren’t doing the vaccine ritual?
That’s generally true, however over 25 million South Africans have been injected, at around 43%; about 25% of the country is fully injected, and they are injecting at a rate of about 100,000 a day, which is not an insignificant amount in a country of 60 million people.
I am pleased to see you used the word injected as opposed to “vaccinated”.
It came from the Africanized Killer Bees. The ones that were supposed to kill us a decade ago.
They didn’t find an African variant. They declared it. No, seriously they simply declared it based on a few patient symtoms and a positive PCR test that is so flawed that it’s being banned here in a couple of weeks. No lab in South Africa found shit because it was never analyzed in a lab by a virologist. It was declared by a doctor, NOT found by a scientist.
Variants and boosters forever!!!
also, omicron shows up just in time for flu season. I wonder if we will see almost no deaths from the flu this year just like last year , they will all be from the DANGEROUS OMICRON .
You gotta hand it to little Tony: he and he alone is responsible for eradicating the seasonal flu.
From Fox News:
Dr. Angelique Coetzee, a board member of the South African Medical Association, first noticed otherwise healthy patients demonstrating unusual symptoms on Nov. 18.
“Their symptoms were so different and so mild from those I had treated before,” Coetzee told The Telegraph.
“It presents mild disease with symptoms being sore muscles and tiredness for a day or two not feeling well,” Coetzee explained. “So far, we have detected that those infected do not suffer the loss of taste or smell. They might have a slight cough. There are no prominent symptoms. Of those infected some are currently being treated at home.”
THE HORRORS!🙄
100%
The clue will be if it is deaths or cases that will be highlighted by the MSM. My guess is it will be another hype to get people jabbed.
it’s..the..flu..bro
With that kind of report, I think they’re just mocking us now. They’re not even trying that hard to make this look legit. Just showing us they can throw their power at us over anything at this point…because they can.
They enjoy laughing at us. They won’t be laughing forever.
I’ve thought that with their choice of who they put in the White House.
Is this our BB the trucker???
Sadly,no.
Bb died and is in a far better place. I’m 100% sure.
I chatted with bb on the phone just a little while after you did… did Stucky ever call him?
omicron does equal moronic
Speaking of morons, how about WHO giving Xi a pass? Worthless fuckers in high places.
I have seen some possible names for these variants that more closely resemble their true intended effect (as a distraction)….
– the Midterm Election Variant
– the Ghislaine Maxwell Trial Variant
– the Central Banks Hikes Interest Rates Variant
The “Xi” variant.
Oh, wait…
I may become more concerned when they introduce the Ragnarok variant.
Excellent tune. Saw them back in the day at the Rat in Boston.
I miss the Rat and other like clubs,saw many a show in Boston in me youth,last club show was Salty Dog,their one and only tour unfortunately,they could have been huge.
I see a good show will head down to the Orpheum,loved that theater despite her warts!
The Rat was a 1970s leftover from when Boston was dirty and old, Before the downtown tear down Build Back Better types moved on from Scolly Square and Quincy Market waterfront to clean up spread out and gentry fie the rest the place.
Places like Frank’N Steins, the lucky strike lanes in Dorchester, and in Cambridge the Oxford Ale House, Wurst Haus, Bow and Arrow in Harvard Square, good times, good times
Now it’s all chain store crap, Well at least the Plough and Stars is still there I suppose, not that they would let my un injected self in ever again.
I mostly can’t remember the names of places in Boston I was in late 60s early 70s. I wonder why
This rekindled emergency comes just in time for the “special session” of the World Health Assembly starting
Monday (Nov.29), which will rewrite the Int’l Health Regulations, greatly expanding Who powers.
I’ll take my chances. Thankyou
Lord willing and by his mercy,may you all be safe in Jesus name,i’m primed i got this.
From the beginning, I have mostly not quite trusted this guy. So, for now, he stays in my “Good Initial Impression” file to see how he ages – right beside Russell Brand, Billy Corgan, and Milli Vanilli.
I won tickets to a collective soul concert off the radio on name that tune
for this song .
