COVID may be one or two variants away from defeating vaccines, study warns
The Omicron variant is providing scientists with more evidence that COVID-19 is now capable of evading the current antibody treatments and vaccines available, a new study warns. Researchers from Columbia University suggest that new versions of the coronavirus vaccine may be necessary sooner rather than later to end the pandemic.
The war on the unvaccinated
In 2022, we must defend bodily autonomy.
‘You’re looking at a winter of severe illness and death for yourselves, your families, and the hospitals you may soon overwhelm.’ That was the stark, dystopian warning US president Joe Biden issued to the ‘unvaccinated’ earlier this week.
While the first few rounds of lockdowns, social distancing and other restrictions applied to more or less all people in the societies in which they were introduced (with only the elites able to exempt themselves), in the last few months of 2021 ever-tighter restrictions have been targeted at the unvaccinated.
Report: Booster Shots Offer Protection Against Infection for Only 10 Weeks
A new report from Britain’s Health Security Agency found that the Covid booster shots being pushed by Joe Biden and other governments are effective against contracting the omicron variant of Covid-19 for only 10 weeks.
The effectiveness of the booster shot in preventing serious disease and death from omicron is unknown, but previous experience suggests it will provide significant protection.
Merck’s New COVID-19 Pill Could Accidentally Trigger A New Variant, Experts Warn
Discussion surrounding Merck’s newly-authorized COVID-19 pill, molnupiravir, has mostly concerned the risk it might pose to pregnant women. But some experts worry it could also lead to the outbreak of a new variant of the virus it’s designed to treat.
COVID killing off Canada’s small businesses: report
Small businesses have taken a hit to the chin because of COVID lockdowns, with a loss of more than 740,000 jobs, according to the Department of Industry.
The extent of the damages and losses will take time to be fully known, reported Blacklock’s Reporter.
Covid: Christmas flights cancelled and new curbs amid Omicron spread
Millions of people are facing travel disruption and increased Covid restrictions over Christmas, as the surging Omicron variant sees flights cancelled and safety curbs tightened.
Italy, Spain and Greece have made face masks compulsory outdoors again.
Catalonia, in northern Spain, has imposed an overnight curfew, and the Netherlands is in a strict lockdown.
In the US, daily Omicron cases have risen beyond the peak of the recent Delta wave, and hospitals are filling up across the country.
Thousands of Americans will be forced to spend the holidays alone after airlines cancel nearly 500 flights and delay another 750 on Christmas Eve because of crew shortages due to Omicron surge
This sucks.

Usual suspects outraged that Kenney’s Wuhan Soup comment may have upset the genocidal ChiCom slave state & its 5th Columnist Quislings
Kenney’s Wuhan bat soup comment draws criticism, premier’s office claims ‘scientific theory’ far from racist
An off-hand remark in a recent year-end interview has the office of Alberta’s premier defending Jason Kenney’s comments and maintaining they were not of a hateful nature.
In an interview with Rick Bell of Postmedia, Premier Kenney addressed the issue of COVID-19 variant uncertainty with mention of the city of Wuhan, China, where the first known case of the virus was detected.
“Who knows what the next variant that gets thrown up is? I don’t know,” said Kenney in the interview. “And what’s the next bat soup thing out of Wuhan? I don’t know.
Kenney spoke like a normal human speaks the faux outrage brigade hates that.
Ontario guesstimates record 9,571 new Covid cases … and now that the vaxxed are being infected it’s time to remove the stigma of catching Corona say CBC experts
Ontario reports nearly 10K new COVID-19 cases, ICU numbers stay flat
Ontario is reporting 9,571 new COVID-19 cases on Friday, the highest daily total since the start of the pandemic.
The daily total shatters the previous high of 5,790 new infections that came a day earlier. It is more than triple the 3,124 new cases reported on Friday last week.
Experts believe the testing backlog in the province means the true number of infections caused by the Omicron variant is actually much higher than being reported. The province saw a record high test positivity rate of 16 per cent on Thursday.
Omicron’s prevalence should shake off COVID-19’s lingering stigma, experts say
Alexandra Floyd said her friends and co-workers were generally understanding when she called and texted them to say she had tested positive for COVID-19 — but still, she worried about being judged.
“I think there’s definitely that stigma related to, ‘Well, where were you? Who are you with the last couple of days? What did you do? Who are you around? Who did you expose?’ ” she told CBC News.
“I understand those questions need to be asked, for sure … but I definitely think that there is still that stigma related to … judging people and what they did.”
The 29-year-old Toronto law clerk said that she was shocked that she contracted the virus and found it “ironic,” given how careful she’s been. She said she’s double vaccinated.
No such consideration will be extended to the unvaxxed by CBC I suspect.
Omicron has Cracked Open the Overton Window
The Overton window of political possibility is the concept that there are a limited range of ideas the public is willing to consider and accept. That politicians can only be effective by advocating policy that fits within the Overton window and that disruptive groups are the ones who can expand or contract the Overton window. In the case of COVID-19, the use of the noble lie has been used by government and world health officials as well as legacy media sycophants to restrict and even close the Overton window regarding issues such as mask use, vaccination strategies, and lockdowns. To be explicitly clear, the Overton Window is a political concept which is being actively manipulated to constrain scientific discourse.
LEVY: Ontario and Florida could not be more different
I noticed the difference – the logical easing of draconian restrictions – as soon as I crossed the border into the United States a month ago and started driving south. In most places where I stopped – from West Virginia to Charlotte, North Carolina to Savannah, Georgia – masks were not a must unless we took an Uber.
Watch: Jill Biden Features Masked Singing, Dancing Nurses in Pandemic White House Christmas Special

World Economic Forum Released Guide On How To Coerce & Manipulate Public Into Taking COVID-19 Shot
These criminals are so brazen and emboldened that they don’t even try to hide it anymore. They are stating how they are killing children with boosters, and how boosters won’t stop the plandemic, but boosters with social distancing will. They have been caught in their lies, and the World Economic Forum is no different. Earlier this year, they released a guide on how to coerce and manipulate the public to take the experimental shots.
Canada spends up to $450M on new COVID drug outperformed by placebo in some trials
When pharmaceutical companies named a new drug for treating COVID-19 patients, they evoked a powerful image, that of Norse god Thor’s hammer, Mjölnir.
The idea is that Molnupiravir — a pill that can be taken at home — would strike a mighty blow against the virus as it continues to spread and sicken people worldwide.
