Hi everyone, knowing We have have such knowledgeable participants on this site, i thought maybe we could share feelings on the new varient and tell stories of how we should all handle it.

We no longer have CUOMO BROS. to lead the charge so I thought I would.

They passed over Xi in the alphabet because of the obvious President Xi Jinping implications, lol.

Amazing, now that’s a story…wonder why it only hits 5 media camps.

So OMICRON is a joke and only CORONA is the real concern?

Hi everyone, knowing We have have such knowledgeable participants on this site, i thought maybe we could share feelings on the new varient and tell stories of how we should all handle it.
The same as all the other strains of COVID-19, since it’s the same virus. Wear a mask, keep away from crowded spaces and get jabbed & boosted!!
Should we start a new thread for each new season of The Walking Dead??
Want me to cite the Amino Acid sequence changes in the Spike Protein??

Here you go...
**OMICRON’S SPIKE MUTATIONS
Omicron** carries about [50 mutations not seen in combination before]('https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/26/health/omicron-variant-vaccines.html'), including more than 30 mutations on the spike protein that the coronavirus uses to attach to human cells.
[ATTACH type="full" width="691px"]41123[/ATTACH]
**Omicron**’s spike protein has several mutations that are found in other variants of concern and that are thought to make the virus more infectious, including **[D614G]('https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/health/coronavirus-variant-tracker.html#D614G')**, **[N501Y]('https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/health/coronavirus-variant-tracker.html#N501Y')** and **[K417N]('https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/health/coronavirus-variant-tracker.html#K417N')**.
[ATTACH type="full" width="691px"]41124[/ATTACH]
More research is needed to determine whether **Omicron**’s collection of mutations will enable the variant to evade immunity from vaccines or infections. It’s also not clear yet whether the disease it causes is more or less severe than other variants.

The primary concerns which have yet to be determined are:
1) Does it cause severe illness? Thus far it seems like it does not but its yet to be determined.
2) Will it respond to current vaccines? Still no word on that.
Omicron has been in circulation for weeks so its probably here.
I think they should rename Covid, terminator. It just can't be eliminated........oh, wait.........it could if everyone was vaccinated!

None of it matters
We’re all going to get it
We’re all going to either get over it
Or
Not
the rest will go on with this new version of the flu
the sooner you all get that through your heads the easier this will all become
if you can’t see that your simply blind or can’t form a Rational thought without some egg head leading you around by the nose

And that is exactly why I said what I did last night
I don't need another thread to read everybody's BS opinions that mean nothing to me...
This is a case in point.
When certain people reference others abilities to have rational thoughts it turns the entire thing into comedy hour rather than a discussion
