Asian and European Countries, Alarmed by New COVID Variant, Tighten Curbs
Newsmax, Nov 26, 2021

Global authorities reacted with alarm on Friday to a new coronavirus variant detected in South Africa, with the EU and Britain among those tightening border controls as researchers sought to find out if the mutation was vaccine-resistant.

Hours after Britain banned flights from South Africa and neighboring countries and asked travelers returning from there to quarantine, the World Health Organization (WHO) cautioned against hasty measures.

One South African scientist expert labeled London’s decision a symptom of "vaccine apartheid," though European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen said the EU also aimed to halt air travel from the region and several other countries including India, Japan and Israel toughened curbs.

In Washington, top U.S. infectious disease official Anthony Fauci said no decision had been made on a possible U.S. travel ban.

The WHO said it would take weeks to determine how effective vaccines were against the variant, which was first identified this week, but the news pummeled global stocks and oil amid fears what new bans would do to the global travel industry and already shaky economies across southern Africa.

Fauci: US Must Study Data Before Deciding on Travel Ban Over New COVID-19 Variant
Newsmas, Nov 26, 2021

Top U.S. infectious disease official Dr. Anthony Fauci said on Friday that a ban on flights from southern Africa was a possibility and the United States was rushing to gather data on the new COVID-19 variant.
No decision to halt flights had yet been made, he said.

Global authorities have reacted with alarm to the new variant, detected in South Africa, with the European Union and Britain among those tightening border controls as scientists seek to find out if the mutation was vaccine-resistant.

The World Health Organization (WHO), however, has cautioned against hasty measures and South Africa said a British ban on flights seemed rushed.

"There is always the possibility of doing what the UK has done, namely block travel from South Africa and related countries," Fauci said in an interview on CNN.

"That's certainly something you think about and get prepared to do. You're prepared to do everything you need to protect the American public. But you want to make sure there's a basis for doing that," he said.

"Obviously as soon as we find out more information we'll make a decision as quickly as we possibly can."

Dr. Fauci: 'No Indication' New Coronavirus Variant in United States
Newsmax, Nov 26, 2021

There is "no indication" that a new coronavirus variant that has been discovered in South Africa has surfaced in the United States, but more information is needed about whether the COVID-19 vaccines and tests will work against the variant before a travel ban, similar to ones in the EU, Britain, and India, would be put in place, Dr. Anthony Fauci said Friday.

"(It) has some mutations that are raising some concern, particularly with regard to possibly a transmissibility increase and possible evasion of an immune response," Fauci, the chief medical adviser for the White House and the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said on CNN's "New Day."

A discussion between scientists from South Africa and the United States has been scheduled for later Friday morning, he added, as "we want to find out, scientist-to-scientist, exactly what is going on."

EU, UK, Israel to halt air travel to southern Africa over new COVID-19 variant

World Health Organization warns leaders against 'knee-jerk responses'

By Julia Musto | Fox News

Nations took swift action Friday to halt air travel from southern Africa in reaction to news of a new, transmissible COVID-19 variant.

Although the World Health Organization (WHO) cautioned against hastily imposing travel restrictions linked to the B.1.1.529 variant, warning officials to avoid "knee-jerk responses," the 27-nation European Union said it would propose stopping air travel from southern Africa.

The EU joined Israel and the United Kingdom, who are likewise imposing a travel ban.

Will the U.S. also impose a ban? Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, told CNN that it's a possibility but that scientists need to first determine whether the variant can evade antibodies created by vaccines and viral infection.

"We are currently on the verge of a state of emergency," Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said, according to Reuters.

COVID-19 variant B.1.1.529: Here’s what we know
Variant has high number of spike mutations that could affect transmissibility

By Edmund DeMarche | Fox News

Scientists are working to determine the potential risks associated with the new COVID-19 variant called B.1.1.529, which has already prompted an emergency meeting on Friday by the World Health Organization.

1- A team of scientists from seven universities in South Africa is working to learn more about the variant and are studying 100 whole genomes of the mutation.

2- The variant was first identified in Botswana earlier this month, but may have contributed to a jump in cases in South Africa.

3- The variant has a high number of spike mutations that could affect transmissibility and immune response, Ravindra Gupta, a professor of clinical microbiology at the University of Cambridge, said.

4- The B.1.1.529 variant has been found in Botswana, Hong Kong and South Africa.

5- The new variant is considered the most significant one yet and scientists are working to see if it renders vaccines less effective.

6- One scientist described the mutation as "horrific" in an interview with the BBC.

7-Tulio de Oliveira, the director of South Africa’s Center for Epidemic Response and Innovation, told the news outlet that the variant has an "unusual constellation of mutations." For example, the delta variant had two mutations to its receptor binding domain; this variant has 10, he said.

8-There are anecdotal reports of cases in vaccinated people and reinfections, but health officials said more investigation is needed, Nature reported.

9-The WHO is meeting on Friday to determine if the mutation is a variant of interest. The variant could be named nu.

Stocks crater as new COVID-19 variant triggers market sell-off
US stocks will close for trading at 1 pm ET on Friday

    By Megan Henney FOXBusiness

U.S. stocks tumbled on Friday morning after South Africa sounded the alarm over a new, fast-spreading COVID-19 variant, triggering fresh fears that a resurgent coronavirus could scuttle the global economy's recovery from the pandemic.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell more than 900 points, or nearly 2.5%, while the S&P 500 dropped 1.9%, on track for its worst day since September. The Nasdaq Composite fell 1.7% at the beginning of the shortened trading session on Friday (U.S. markets close at 1 p.m. ET due to the Thanksgiving holiday).

The drop comes after health officials warned of a new variant found in South Africa that has a high number of mutations and has spread quickly among young people. The World Health Organization is due to meet Friday to discuss whether the strain is a concern and to determine whether to give it a name from the Greek alphabet.

Most every other "vaccine-resistant" strain of this virus has failed to catch on in the real world.

Meanwhile, Delta, which is not vaccine-resistant in terms of antibodies, has spread like wildfire even among the vaccinated. Why? Because it avoids antibodies by staying in the nose, meaning no vaccine is going to work against it.

Dr. Evil is working on this; chances are he'll decide to keep travel from Africa to the U.S. open only to close it later once the variant is spread.  That way he can play god again and demand masks, more vaccines and yet another round of boosters and recommend that we be shut down.

Why the omicron Covid variant is the most concerning so far
The new variant has a large number of mutations which could help it dodge immunity and make it more infectious

Sarah Knapton, SCIENCE EDITOR   |   26 November 2021 • 6:03pm

The new variant has a large number of mutations which could help it dodge immunity and make it more infectious

Of all the variants so far, B.1.1.529 is causing the most alarm. And with good reason.

The "omicron" variant, as it is was named on Friday by the World Health Organisation, has an eye-watering number of mutations, many of which could help it dodge immunity, or make it more infectious.

Since delta, there have been eight other variants named after letters of the Greek alphabet by the organisation, but none have triggered this much worry.

The variant was first spotted in Botswana on Nov 11, and cases have now been found in South Africa, Israel and Hong Kong.


The most concerning changes have happened to the spike protein, where there are about twice as many mutations as the delta variant.

When Dr Tom Peacock, a virologist at Imperial College London, spotted the mutations in the sequence data earlier this week, he labelled them “horrific” and “really awful”.

“I would take a guess that this would be worse antigenically than nearly anything else about,” he said.

One senior UK health official said that the spike protein on the omicron variant was “so dramatically different” that it was “causing real concern”, although there are currently no cases in Britain and it has not yet been classified as a variant of concern.

“It is the worst variant I have seen so far. We have protein experts and virologists who are all extremely concerned,” the official said.

The variant has about 50 mutations, with 30 in the spike protein and 10 in the receptor binding motif, the part that binds to our cell receptor called ACE2, which is greater than any other mutated strain.  .  .  .

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/11/26/new-covid-variant-nu-strain-south-africa-symptoms-cases-uk/



So this "mutation" only alters the protein spikes themselves and not the actual virus.  In other words, for those with antibodies against SARS-2 (i.e. people who have survived the disease), this new strain will have zero effect on them.  But for those who received jabs that were falsely labeled as 'vaccines', all bets are off.  The jabs they received went after protein spikes that are now obsolete, and will have no protection over these mutated spikes.

Congrats to everyone here who remained cynical against the protein spike programming jabs.  Your cynicism proved correct.  And congrats to eveyone here holding Pfizer stock.  Another 200 million 'vaccine' [sic] order is in the works, generating another $2B in revenue.

The only ones here who should be afraid are those who fell hook, line, and sinker for the Democrat narrative that has been pushed since Biden took control of the white house.

EXPLAINER: What is this new ‘omicron’ COVID variant in South Africa?

South African scientists identified a new version of the coronavirus this week that they say is behind a recent spike in COVID-19 infections in Gauteng, the country’s most populous province. It’s unclear where the new variant actually arose, but it was first detected by scientists in South Africa and has now been seen in travelers to Belgium, Botswana, Hong Kong and Israel.

Health Minister Joe Phaahla said the variant was linked to an “exponential rise” of cases in the last few days, although experts are still trying to determine if the new variant, named B.1.1.529, is actually responsible.

From just over 200 new confirmed cases per day in recent weeks, South Africa saw the number of new daily cases rocket to 2,465 on Thursday. Struggling to explain the sudden rise in cases, scientists studied virus samples from the outbreak and discovered the new variant.

In a statement on Friday, the World Health Organization designated it as a “variant of concern,” naming it “omicron” after a letter in the Greek alphabet.

After convening a group of experts to assess the data, the U.N. health agency said that “preliminary evidence suggests an increased risk of reinfection with this variant,” as compared to other variants.

“The number of cases of this variant appears to be increasing in almost all provinces in South Africa,” the WHO said.

WHY ARE SCIENTISTS WORRIED ABOUT THIS NEW VARIANT?

It appears to have a high number of mutations — about 30 — in the coronavirus’ spike protein, which could affect how easily it spreads to people.

Sharon Peacock, who has led genetic sequencing of COVID-19 in Britain at the University of Cambridge, said the data so far suggest the new variant has mutations “consistent with enhanced transmissibility,” but said that “the significance of many of the mutations is still not known.”

Lawrence Young, a virologist at the University of Warwick, described the variant as “the most heavily mutated version of the virus we have seen.” He said it was concerning that although the variant was only being detected in low levels in parts of South Africa, “it looks like it’s spreading rapidly.”

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the U.S.′ top infectious diseases doctor, said American officials had arranged a call with their South African counterparts later on Friday to find out more details and said there was no indication the variant had yet arrived in the U.S.

WHAT’S KNOWN AND NOT KNOWN ABOUT THE VARIANT?

Scientists know that the new variant is genetically distinct from previous variants including the beta and delta variants, but do not know if these genetic changes make it any more transmissible or dangerous. So far, there is no indication the variant causes more severe disease.

It will likely take weeks to sort out if the new variant is more infectious and if vaccines are still effective against it...........

New variant hysteria comes from same institution that popularized lockdowns & previous COVID scares
Substack.com, Nov 26, 2021, Jordan Schachtel

What a small world we live in. The “Nu variant” scare you keep hearing about is coming from the same people and institutions that spawned the last COVID scare, and the one before that, and the one before that one, dating back all the way to the onset of COVID Mania.

The corporate press and world governments have produced an incredible amount of noise about a claimed new COVID variant, the “Nu” variant, which has been detected in South Africa and Botswana.

Just as with previous ruling class-fomented bouts of Hysteria-19, there is no statistical cause for alarm over this new strain, which is one of over 100,000 mutations of the coronavirus.

The “new strain” has hardly produced any lab confirmed cases, but a panicked narrative has already been seeded in the public. The U.K. in particular has driven the fear to new levels. The country has already added several African nations to its travel ban list, citing the new strain.

The Covid variants that avoid the spike protein are due to "vaccinated" people who still get infected and provide a host for variants to thrive and infect others.

Those with natural immunity that target the whole virus and not just a small component of it don't pass on variants nearly so easily.

This is nuts.

He who must not be named. It appears the W.H.O. has skipped the next Greek letter after Nu to name the new variant. The next letter is Xi. The concern is that W.H.O. is again avoiding any discomfort for the Chinese government. So they named it Omicron...

...The new variant was expected to be Nu but  any additional variant would then be Xi, which happens to be the name of the Chinese leader...

...It is not clear if there is another reason for the decision to skip over Nu and Xi, but W.H.O.'s history with the investigation into the origins of the pandemic has fueled speculation as to a political motive.

...It is a demonstration of the continuing credibility problems for the organization after its original inquiry. Even the new panel has been criticized for its imbalance and the background of its members.

...For that reason, W.H.O. should respond to this latest controversy. It is obviously symbolic (literally) but the concern is that it continues to show a controlling sensitivity for not offending the government. It should be easy to deny or confirm.

...Some are now quoting W.H.O. as saying that Nu was avoided because it sounds like "new" while Xi was skipped to avoid "stigmatizing a region." Xi has not yet attained region status. https://twitter.com/PaulNuki?ref_s

Okay, so there is a new variant. I'm shocked (NOT!), because viruses mutate, that's their nature.

It is supposed to be outrageously easy to catch, but where is the case data....

...and even more important, how many deaths have occurred as a fraction of the cases?

 And, of course, the recent data that vaccinated people are dying at 2 times the rate of unvaxxed people from COVID simply proves it.

These Are the Symptoms of the Omicron Variant, South African Doctor Says
Nov 27, 2021

Angelique Coetzee, a doctor with a private practice in Pretoria and chair of the South African Medical Association (SAMA), told The Telegraph that so far Omicron cases seem to present with strange but mild symptoms. "Their symptoms were so different and so mild from those I had treated before," she said.

Most of the Omicron patients Coetzee has treated arrived "feeling so tired," making intense fatigue the most consistent symptom that's been reported. On the other hand, none of these patients suffered from loss of taste or smell, which has been one of the tell-tale COVID symptoms up to this point.

In terms of other surprising symptoms, Coetzee told The Telegraph, "We had one very interesting case, a kid, about six-years-old, with a temperature and a very high pulse rate, and I wondered if I should admit her, but when I followed up two days later she was so much better."

Coetzee has stressed that it's too early to make any larger predictions about what an Omicron wave would mean for the world - and if we'll even reach that point. In an interview with The Guardian, she reiterated that the cases she's seen have been mild, but acknowledged that it's too soon to know for sure if that will hold for a broader spectrum of Omicron infections.

"It's all speculation at this stage. It may be it's highly transmissible, but so far the cases we are seeing are extremely mild," Coetzee said. "Maybe two weeks from now I will have a different opinion, but this is what we are seeing. So are we seriously worried? No. We are concerned and we watch what's happening. But for now we're saying, 'OK, there's a whole hype out there. [We're] not sure why.'"

This might be the best thing to happen to this pandemic. The rumors are that this virus has mutated so much from COVID that PCR can't recognize it in a lot of cases. Remember, COVID's closest relative is βCov-OC43—the second-leading cause of the common cold. If the two combined to form a more virulent, but far less deadly, virus, that would be what many people predicted would be the endgame to begin with. Pandemics usually don't last more than two to three years or so.

The lack of a spike in hospitalizations coupled with its ability to crowd out Delta might be the saving grace that actually ends the pandemic as we know it.

Pfizer and Moderna should quietly return their mRNA drugs back to the drawing boards to figure out where they went wrong.

All other drug companies should manufacture and release the therapeutics we already know work.

It would be no surprise if the highly transmissible omicron variant of coronavirus is already in the United States, even though health experts haven't detected it yet, Dr. Anthony Fauci said Saturday morning.

How would Fauci know this soon whether or not it is highly transmissible?

Earlier, I wanted to suggest that it was merely, the strain of the upcoming season's "flu".   happy77
Kinda like Covid was a strain of last season's "flu", it must have been since if it wasn't then Covid killed the flu and I don't know why they're pushing flu shots.

I was looking forward to hosting some family visitors from Europe for the holidays.  These imbeciles are going to shut down all travel and tank the economy - just watch.

Apparently we've gone from home of the brave to home of the bedwetter. America of 30 years ago would never have allowed it.
