The Covid pandemic is far from over
The way vaccines were administered and the vaccinated were rewarded in Australia lead to “vaccine complacency” and a “virus pool” of infected people. This in turn let the virus spread like crazy because the vaccines never stopped transmission or infection, and then to “vaccine induced variants“. The delta variant had some 144 subvariants before Omicron…

Taiwan chose to live with covid, just like Australia.
Seeing the hardship endured by the Chinese people in Shanghai, Taiwan which has roughly the same population as Australia decided to lift most restrictions and live with the virus. I would suggest more Taiwanese are wearing masks than Australians, who are completely complacent and so far in this pandemic has been lucky, lucky that omicron…

Morrison did NOT save Australia from Covid. Quite the opposite is true.
Scott Morrison is a complete moron and liar. He is claiming he saved Australia from covid19 in the article in the Guardian, but the complete opposite is actually true. He has devastated the Australian economy by opening up the borders after forcing the hotel quarantine system to crumble. He then forced upon the public, experimental…

Efficacy of Pfizer in Children is now 12%
This goes back to 1 March 2022. How did I miss this? Two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine offer almost no protection against coronavirus infection in kids ages 5 to 11, dropping to 12%. “Researchers from the New York State Department of Health found that the vaccine’s effectiveness dropped to 12 percent from 68 percent…

Why is China so keen to stay #zerocovid?
There are lots of reasons, and I believe Australia should have stayed #zerocovid as well. People could have still travelled etc but they would just have to quarantine when they came home. For many it could have been home quarantine. Back to China. Why are they so keen to stay zerocovid? The coronavirus is a…

Move over for BA.12. Ten-times more infectious than BA.2
A new variant of the novel coronavirus, BA.12, was found in Bihar’s Patna on Thursday. According to the state’s health department, the new variant of Omicron was found in the Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences (IGIMS). There is a new kid in town and we have not dealt with waves from BA.2.9, BA.2.2, BA.2.12, BA.2.12.1,…

Omicron now has 73 subvariants
Omicron B.1.1.529, now has 73 subvariants. These variants are being generated in the huge “virus pools” of vaccinated people as I have repeatedly noted since July 2021. The Delta variant generated 245 sublineages. The problem is that vaccines do not stop infection and transmission of the coronavirus. Currently vaccines have an efficacy of about 30-40%…

Petri Dish Cruise ships will now be allowed back into Australia.
It seems the world has given up on covid19 and are going to let it spread/rip. With 100 million people actively infected inside a constant “virus pool”, anything is still possible. Mutations are are of less concern than recombinants which are highly likely. We are far from out of the woods., Denmark’s CFR went from…

BA.2 is not Omicron. And what are BA.4 and BA.5?
BA.2 is very different to BA.1 and BA.3. Why is it called Omicron? Because it came from South Africa around the same time. I thought the whole purpose of using Greek letters was so we could not tell where the variant came from. Delta always reminds me of the Ganges delta plains and hence of…

The subvariants of Omicron have exploded. Australia is getting buried in new subvariants from within and from the outside. Welcome to the “New World Disorder”.
Last I looked (a couple of day ago) we had 54 subvariants of Omicron listed by GISAID. BA.1 was the one that swept the world first. BA.2 looked more ominous as its spike protein was quite different to BA.1 and BA.3, and it subvariants are the ones I have been most concerned about. Look at…
