Omicron Variant Found in California
Press release from the California and San Francisco Departments of Public Health:
“As expected, and thanks to California’s large-scale testing and early detection systems, the State of California and the San Francisco Department of Public Health have confirmed a case of the Omicron variant in California. Our partners at the University of California, San Francisco identified this case through their sequencing capabilities. California is continuing to monitor the variant’s presence and progress through the state’s robust Whole Genome Sequencing surveillance.
We must remain vigilant against this variant, but it is not a cause for panic. To help detect and prevent the spread of this new variant, the State of California is increasing COVID-19 testing at our airports for arrivals from countries identified by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). We recognize that everyone is exhausted, and the news of a new variant can be overwhelming. It is important that we collectively focus on the things we know prevent the spread of COVID-19, and its variants. Individuals should (1) get vaccinated and boosted; (2) wear your mask in indoor settings; (3) get tested if you have symptoms; and (4) stay home if you are sick.
As we continue to learn more about the Omicron variant and how it can impact all of us, we will share that information through covid19.ca.gov and cdph.ca.gov.”

Surprise Surprise Surprise..Though I would have thought New York first. California is number 1 again…
“The individual, who was fully vaccinated and had mild symptoms”.
Should rename the variant Decepticon instead.
We’re number 1 … We’re number 1 !!!
If we could just find a way to tax it. We’ed be gold. Eureka!
It comes as no surprise to me.
Did they detect it by using the CERNS Large Hadron Collider?
Like I said yesterday or before, “There is no doubt in my mind it’s already here”.
It just hadn’t been acknowledged yet.
So let’s see…
Let me get this straight…
“3) Get tested if you have symptoms”… Aaand…
“4) Stay home if you are sick”….
🤔🧐Got it.🤷♂️
Bring on Omicron! It has mild symptoms but builds immunity in advance of a future, more virulent, variant
They’ve also discovered the Omicron®️ variant in Dungeons Crab recently.
Don’t the Dragons in the Dungeon eat the crabs?Ranger just shoots them
Mangos also test positive
Mangos? Well yeah, they’re like, you know, foreign. I heard they had to dump an entire semi of See’s candy, driver tested positive…they threw the candy in a dumpster behind Burger King, is what I heard. See you down there. One stop Christmas shopping!
Also the registration on Omicron ran out 2,000 years ago, any thing BC is considered to be in the public domain
The “Omnicron” is the most scary variation yet! It’s reported to be mild, spreads easily and could help bring about heard immunity much faster and this terrifies the democrats who love the amount of control this “pandemic” has shifted into their hands.
Yawn
Remember you being this naive when you reflect in 3 years after your 15th booster and still wondering why the vax hasn’t beat this yet. You are also so ignorant you don’t know the fact that this “variant” almost specifically targets vaxd people, but I digress.
may dodge a variant this time but the next one might get ya.
Control of what, exactly?
Well…BigPharma owns both parties. I’m not sure it’s helpful to argue DEM vs. REP parties on most issues anymore…
…we just all fight each other while they both rob the country blind
Yes this!!
Farce glad someone else see that also. I mean pass a trillion dollar budget dont discuss dont even read it. Every one gets a slice it only the US peoples money who cares where it gets spent as long as I get mine. Every politician
It’s like we have new sports teams. The deltas vs the omicrons. F*uk the wuhans. They got their asses kicked.
It attacks babies and children, don’t you know.
I’ve never herd of heard immunity.
I think that’s where you become immune to any actual facts or science about COVID that you might see or hear because of the high percentage of nonsense that has been ingested.
Culture is downstream from Technology.
If I was Bill Gates, I’d be doing the same thing.
Releasing a Virus that monetizes sickness and recovery, that benefits me and my team, and makes me the winner of this game.
Team sport and all!
Get your head in the Game, Tim!
🤔🧐 Heard immunity…
You know…
It helps prevent scuttlebutt…😁
Heh . . . you said scuttle.
Herd it from a friend who, herd it from a friend who, herd it from another you got heard immunity.
I assume this case was in San Francisco, but it doesn’t really say.
Yeah that was a poor press relaese. The person traveled from south Africa to SF on Nov 22nd. Diagnosed on the 29th.
The only way you can get tested is if you just got back from South Africa?
Sounds familiar.
That should narrow down the source.
They are working from the same plausible deniability script as they were the last time.
I suppose the tests are too scarce again to test anyone except those returning from South Africa who are symptomatic…
I’m sure this wasn’t the first case of Omicron in California, or in the US.
Sounds like Biden* banned travelers from Mozambique just in time.
Just.unfucking.believable
🤔🧐Hey, be nice. Being a reporter isn’t all that aesy.😁
SO its not stopped by the vaxx, so I should get the vaxx and then the booster?
Okay got it.
Only if you have a job, or if you’re a citizen.
🎅🎅Someone finally ran over that dead skunk and pewww does it stink. 🦸♂️🦸♂️
Step 1: make sure the corporate pharmaceutical companies get their cut and let them experiment on you.
Step 2: make sure to comply at all times and be part of the psyop like a good goy should.
Step 3: confirm you are still in our system so we know when you finally die.
Step 4: act “normal.”
And they were vaccinated!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations San Francisco.
…you ruined pizza!
Pfizer Limited Edition Dark Winter Foosball table!!
Just in time for Christmas!!!
Fauciball!!!!!
midterm election variant (mev)
11 months from the mid-terms?
Damn those Democrats are dumber than I thought.
Omicron will be an afterthought by November 2022.
How’s them fuel prices? And that stock market setting new records every day. I feel so much more united since they ruled on Rittenhouse, boy this new circus has this country coming together, crack me up. Right,left all the same ,just takes a group of dummies to vote for them .
Forget Omicron we have bigger worries.
NASA has warned that a giant asteroid bigger than the Eiffel Tower will break into Earth’s orbit in just over a week.
The 1,082-foot space rock is heading our way and should skim past us on December 11..we are an awfully big target to miss
Yes, absolutely”skim past”, at ten times the distance from the Earth to the Moon…
Hopefully the Earth won’t act like a ginormous magnet and alter the asteroid’s path towards Earth.
Because then we would have to use “hyperspace”, and coming back from that can be unpredictability risky…
Think of it as vaccinating the earth against the human virus.
To put humans in proper perspective, the Earth would be the virus particle.
A: You? Forget the ‘vid?
II: Sounds like a job for Space Force. Oh, wait…
All the Covid in the world would not fill a 12 oz. soda can. If you could get that much together it would be colorless, it is smaller than the wavelengths of visible light.
Sure it would, and then some. Just look at the photo at the top. Those things are huge. I’d hate to breathe in that through my nose.
You’ve never snorted Omicron, bro?
Even though each individual virus is smaller than most wavelengths of visible light, an aggregation of viruses would be visible, and would probably be white-ish in color.
It will be all over the US before long. I know it is in Canada and the UK. I am begining to wonder if we will ever be free of the Covid virus variants that keep popping up. If you have not had your two vaccine shots and the booster – well good luck!!!
Yes, without those injections you only have 99.xx+% chance of survival!
Fill up your room with nintey nine friends, if you got them, now pick which one you’d like to see die. Guaranteed it would not be you. Now take let’s say 30 % of them and make them so sick that they are moaning and crawling on the floor for days. Guaranteed you would not be volunteering to feed or clean up after them. Then take about 10% of the ones who survive the attention you will give them while they are sick yet end up with heart, lung or nerve damage for months or maybe a life time. Guaranteed you will not be supporting them or their families while they recover.
The only simple thing in this whole thought experiment is the idea that it doesn’t matter who dies and that those who get sick have no long consequences.
You can’t control the lives, and choices of others. How many people have tried hard to help a friend who just keeps making bad choices. At some point, you have to be okay with letting people die, and get sick. Self destructive behavior has consequences, and even the good die young.
The 99.6% survival rate is population wide, not adjusted for age and other health factors. It’s astonishing to me that you haven’t grasped these basic facts about this virus that you spend so much time accusing others of being misinformed about.
For my age group the cdc estimates that the risk of death is something like 5 in 10,000. These 5 are likely to be suffering from various preexisting health conditions.
But don’t let those well established realities get in the way of peddling your fear porn.
It probably already is…
Probably has been for quite a while…
Just a distraction so we don’t listen to the old men retaking control of women’s right to control our fertility.
…Through the murder of the inconvenient.
If you controlled and managed your fertility, the Supreme Court would not have to.
Freedom means working harder at self restraint
Or just keep vaccinating the kids so they are no longer viable in the reproductive arena.
I am so over this crap. I have gotten all my shots and will get booster soon. But I’ll be damned if I will subject myself to any other vaccinations for Covid or any future variants. Two years of this bullshit is enough. Those who want vaccinations have already done it. The rest are on their own. Their choice. Time to move on.
Unfortunately they don’t just go away just because you’re done with them They occupy hospitals, forcing other not to able to get care when they need it. They tap into government services you pay for. They close down businesses you rely on when they get sick. And most important, they keep the disease around until chances are they will bring others down with them.
Vaccinations have increased due to recent mandates. Many went screaming and yelling to it but they went. It’s just too bad that the political anti government, anti vaxxer propaganda machines have exacerbated normal fears with lies, exaggeration and innuendo to such a fever pitch that too many people, who other wise would have cowboyed up and got vaccinated, refused until it was too late to see their folly.
And some may have jumped the gun…
Wish those healthy young athletes would stop keeling over. Party poopers!
