Covid-19
How dangerous is the Omicron new strain?
Several countries of the world have, again, been thrown into a new phase of phobia with the propaganda on the outburst of Omicron, identified as the newest “super-scary” COVlD-19 variant, which displaced the conjectured ‘so much dreaded’ Delta variant.
While the first case was yet to be diagnosed in the United States (U.S.) on a patient in California, New York had already declared a state of emergency. That was done in the absence of any case in America. Apparently, New York raised a false alarm!
Interestingly, President Joe Biden of the U.S. has continued to insist on boosters, boosters, and more boosters, after the initial two vaccine jabs, to battle the conjectured emerging “dangerous new strain.”
Interestingly, governments are imposing COVID-19 vaccine mandates when the ‘parent’ vaccine has failed to protect those who received even double doses.
The speculated Omicron has, however, not claimed any life so far, yet it is described as dangerous and scary. The World Health Organisation (WHO) also declared that the much speculated Omicron has not caused any death.
Also, South Africa which first raised the alarm about the Omicron variant, maintained that it caused ZERO deaths.
Omicron is said to be presenting mild illness in nearly everyone who has it.
Meanwhile, documents available show that half of the patients with Omicron variant were vaccinated.
It has been established that the “patient zero” in the US also happened to be vaccinated.
This has made President Biden’s insistence on booster jabs irrelevant.
There are concerns that a section of the media across the world has been reportedly funded to blow the COVID speculation out of proportion in an effort to sell more fear into the people.
