Omicron XE causing new surge in Covid in Malta
Yes, Omicron XE is still active. Omicron XE is a recombinant of the variants BA.1 and BA.2. BA.2 is very different to BA.1 and virologists are just starting to relabel BA.2 variants in a class of their own. The BA.2 variants should have been given a new Greek letter by the WHO. Recombinant variants are…

Masters of War
The title of one of Bob Dylan’s songs from 1963. Such an insightful young man to have written this at 21 years of age. Come you masters of warYou that build all the gunsYou that build the death planesYou that build the big bombsYou that hide behind wallsYou that hide behind desksI just want you…

Victoria to end isolation rules for Covid
I wonder how long this will last? I think their hospitals will be overwhelmed. Plus covid19 is not the flu. It is killing 20 Victorians a day right now. That is 7000 people a year. We may as well relax speeding rules, seatbelts, and drinking driving too. Only a few hundred more will die on…

SADS-Sudden Adult Death Syndrome-It’s a mystery
They are all acting like that have no idea why this is suddenly happening more frequently. Maybe it’s the diet of young people, not enough exercise, too much time on their mobile phone, or whatever. A syndrome. FFS. SADS! I guess they checked to see if these people had covid? “The heartbroken mother of a…

How monkeypox could have mutated so much. Did a human defence mechanism against viruses help generate it?
Lots of scientist have recently been suggesting that monkeypox may have been circulating in the community since 2017, but this fails to address the question as to why so many mutations have taken place, when it generally mutates on average only once a year. Monkeypox mutates less than SARS2-CoV2 because it is a DNA virus…

Pre-infection or vaccination will not stop you getting covid from variants BA.4 and BA.5
New data from South Africa shows that although 97% of people had been exposed to covid or had been vaccinated or both, they still have a fifth wave in South Africa. BA.4 and BA.5 are now being sequenced in Australia (NSW and WA), Europe and the USA, so the world is about to go through…

Monkeypox cases freeze last 2 days
This is weird. For something that was spreading like wildfire the there have hardly been any number of new cases in the last 2 days. I do not think it is because it was a weekend because it did not happen in the previous weekends. Maybe is is a MSM thing: men having sex with…

Why are they still mandating the covid vaccines?
The covid jabs hardly have any efficacy anymore so why are they continuing with mandates. It must be a control thing, a power trip. The covid vaccine efficacies have dropped substantially and as mostly the elderly die, they are the one’s who should only get the jab now, and only if they want. SO WHY…

BA.4 and BA.5 detected in NSW and WA
As the title says BA.4 and BA.5 detected in NSW and WA. I have not seen any recorded cases of BA.4 and BA.5 in Queensland, Victoria, SA or Tasmania as yet. BA.4 and BA.5 will be our next covid wave, once the BA.2.* waves have finished, BA.2.12.1 and BA.2.10.1 look to have some more time…
