First US omicron case detected in California
By Nathaniel Weixel and Morgan Chalfant - 12/01/21 01:58 PM EST

 :terror:

The U.S. has detected the nation's first case of the omicron variant of the coronavirus in California, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said Wednesday.

The individual was a fully vaccinated traveler who returned from South Africa on November 22, the CDC said. The person had mild symptoms that are improving, and is self-quarantining.

The person has since tested negative, and all close contacts have also tested negative, the CDC added.


During a press briefing shortly after the case was disclosed, chief White House medical adviser Anthony Fauci urged Americans to get vaccinated against COVID-19 and said that those who are eligible should get their booster shots, describing the vaccines as the best protection against the virus and the omicron variant.

“We know what we need to do to protect people,” Fauci told reporters while encouraging Americans to wear masks in congregate settings to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.

From what has been reported, this variant's symptoms are fairly mild and similar to that of a cold.

Good grief, we are ALL going to die at some point in time.  There's no escaping that. We either die of COVID, old age, pneumonia, influenza, Parkinson, Alzheimer, cancer, accidents, etc.

The CDC has said a lot of things over the last 2 years, some of it outright lies and some just not right.
How do we know there really is a variant?  Just because the CDC says so?

WH Coronavirus Response Coordinator Fails to Mention 1st Case of Omicron Is Fully Vaccinated

Hannah Bleau1 Dec 2021

Jeff Zients, the White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator, released a statement on the first case of the Omicron variant of the Chinese coronavirus in the United States but, notably, excluded the fact that the case had been identified in a fully vaccinated individual in California.

“Today, the CDC has confirmed the first case of the Omicron variant detected in the United States. As the President said last Friday, it was only a matter of time before the first case of Omicron was detected in the U.S.,” Zients said in a statement, expressing the administration’s belief that vaccines will provide “some” level protection against severe illness.

Everyone freaking out about the Omicron variant when the doctor who discovered it is on camera saying it’s not a big deal sums up our COVID response from the beginning just perfectly.

Almost. Don't forget that the freakout is because it's likely vaccine-resistant and yet they're pushing a booster of the same vaccine that isn't going to stop it, just like the first two doses wore off after only a few months.
