The WHO has said all along that no one is safe until everyone is safe. Let’s hope this variant isn’t as dangerous as it’s being feared it could be.

Good to know they won't get fooled again.
Main thing is, the kids are alrightWho are you to make light of this? This could be bad for my generation. I can't explain how angry this makes me.
The new variant has been detected in Belgium. So presumably it'll be fucking everywhere by now or in the very near future.
Hopefully it's not as bad as some are saying.
I thought when viruses mutate they become more transmissible but not as deadly. By that logic the original strain/strains that hit the world in Deb 19 was the worstGenuine question - is it even a semi-regular occurrence for viruses to become more deadly over time?
From what I've read it's a myth that viruses necessarily become weaker over time. There is not currently the evidence to say with any authority that this new variant is more deadly than any previous one.Genuine question - is it even a semi-regular occurrence for viruses to become more deadly over time?

With asymptomatic transmission for COVID being so prevalent, there is no difference to it in how lethal it is. All that really matters for its natural selection processes is transmissibility
Tried reading this a few times and can’t process what you’re trying to say, could you explain?
I think it's the classic risk analysis (probability of catching x impact of infection)Tried reading this a few times and can’t process what you’re trying to say, could you explain?
Why have they called this variant after an evil Transformer?

I’m currently working in Belgium, here until the 8th December. I hope it’s not as bad as some are suggesting too!!
I still don't know why this isn't announced in the wide stream media along with the daily figures, that would prompt me to get vaccinated ASAP if I weren'tSounds good, especially that its starting to come out that very little symtoms if any of this new omicron.
Its the same in Italy, I was in London in October and it felt really surreal over there.Masks mandatory in shops and on public transport too
I was in Spain a few weeks ago and they had these rules. Felt weird coming home and not having to wear masks again!
Feels crazy in London especially on transport. People are being really irresponsibleIts the same in Italy, I was in London in October and it felt really surreal over there.

Not officially, but early days someone could of died of covid and they could of thought it was delta, they dont sequence all test.It's getting tedious now. It's literally never going to end.
Anybody died from this new variant yet?
Died from it or tested positive within the last month?Not officially, but early days someone could of died of covid and they could of thought it was delta, they dont sequence all test.
