    They're running out of names for a ghost virus.

    So what you're saying is there are no other illnesses that cause these symptoms? Everything that makes you ill is Covid? Wow!

    Nobody notices how some people who were super qualified a year or two ago are no longer qualified because they spoke up against the narrative.

    This pattern and damage to the lungs.

    People like this are usually gasping for air turned prone on their stomachs but I think the vaccines saved her life as she was able to walk fine.

    *You* notice what *you* want to believe (1%< people changing their mind), and ignore what *you* don't want to believe (the fact that we are in unprecedented territory and the overall "narrative" scientific developments are constantly evolving). Aka confirmation bias.

    Reminds me of Trump supporters believing the election was "stolen" because they saw a graph with a blue spike in Michigan, yet ignoring all actual evidence proving otherwise.

    Believe what you want brother. The rest of us living in the real world will keep moving forward.

    I've seen heavy smokers with lungs like this. After death though.

    Omicron is on the footsteps of America. It is in Canada. Not good

    The same could be said about you and wtf is this idiotic fascination with Trump? He's been out of office.

    Given how quickly it mutates against humans and how no one has ever found its "missing link" in the wild, I'm guessing it did come from a lab through gain of function type experiments.

    Not a doctor nor something I'd share in person

    Still doesn't show causation. This scenario just added more variables.

    There are people traveling from around the world multiple times every single day.

    Of course a larger percentage of vaccinated folks would help.

    The thing about Omegatron variant is that if it bypasses protections from vaccines these debates are mostly moot and we're back to masking and self distancing.

    I guess I'd rather waste time with the mouthbreathers if that's the case

    I doubt it. That would more than likely make it worse. But as I mentioned they are using the same formula as they did last year so that they can implement another unnecessary lockdown. All of this is just meant to send everyone into a frenzy.

    LMAO, whose coming up with these variant names? They are really playing around now. They are making the people of the world look foolish.

    If I had to pinpoint if this came from
    China or it came from China
    I would say it came from China

    If I’m not mistaken…I think what you’re trying to say is that it came from China.

    It’s not like some dude came back from Antarctica and spread some polar bear virus

    Nobody benefits from everyone going into a frenzy.

    The most frenzied folks out there appear to be the anti-vax and anti-mask crowd.

    But putting people in lockdowns and damaging the economy isn't helpful to the people supposedly lying about all of it.

    They don't benefit from it.

    I'm sure it's fun for some folks to feel like they are one of a select group battling against a massive government conspiracy and cast themselves as the potential hero role in a Young Adult dystopian fantasy novel. But what's happening now with Covid-19 isn't really like that for all of the reasons put forward before.

    Maybe there are some Table Top Role playing Games where people could live out those fantasies rather than hoist them on people who would otherwise like to be responsible and help prevent spread and new variants.
