In this view, reversing the bans would be the first step to ameliorating the North-South inequity that probably helped omicron emerge by throttling the availability of vaccines in the Global South. "I would love to see a powerful, concerted, global push for vaccinating the world," Pai says. Richer, whiter countries would have to stop hoarding vaccines, increase donations to the international vaccine-providing organization Covax, and pressure pharmaceutical companies to waive patent rights and transfer their technology to generic drug makers to increase production.

Until all that happens: panic, right?

No—because no matter what all the mutations Frankenstein-stitched into the omicron spike protein add up to, masks still work, especially the higher-grade N95s or KN95s. The virus is still much less likely to transmit in well-ventilated indoor spaces or outdoors. Vaccinations almost certainly still convey some protection against the variant, and booster shots keep that protection from waning over time. All the interventions that worked last week still work this week and will keep working for the "two weeks" that US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease head Anthony Fauci said it would take to get better data. "Regardless of how little we know about omicron," says Beth Linas, a research epidemiologist at the independent R&D institute RTI International, "we know the best way to protect yourself and others now is to get vaccinated and boosted."

That's good advice, even putting omicron aside. Its arrival doesn't mean delta has departed. Around the world, that wave is still propagating. Austria is currently under a nationwide lockdown. The Netherlands is effectively closed from 5 pm to 5 am. Half-a-million people around the world get sick every week, and about 7,000 die. "Omicron is a spark that should not distract us from the fact that we're already in a burning building," Hodcroft says. People are still getting sick and dying from the old variant. There is still work to be done.
 
More than half of those infected with the Omicron coronavirus variant in England were double jabbed, health officials have said, as the number of cases detected in the UK continues to rise sharply.

There were 75 further cases of the Covid-19 Omicron variant identified in England, the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) said on Friday night. It brings the total number of confirmed cases in England to 104 with 134 in the UK as a whole. There were warnings of a “small amount” of community transmission as not all the new cases were linked to travel.

Cases have now been identified in the east Midlands, east of England, London, north-east, north-west, south-east, south-west and West Midlands.

On Friday, 16 cases were found in Scotland in the previous 24 hours, five times the increase recorded the previous day, with some linked to a Steps concert in Glasgow 11 days ago. Wales also announced its first case on Friday.
 
Miten tää "koronapassi" toimii uuden variantin kanssa? Auttaa olennaisesti tartuntojen vähentämisessä? Hiukan kuin "koronavilkkukin"
 
Pystyy erottelemaan lampaat, eiku ihmiset toisistaan ja ulkomailla käydessä voi vilauttaa sitä passia kun ne vaatii rokotusten lisäksi boosterit koska säännöt ja kiellot.
Ulkomaat ymmärrän mutta entä joku Kallion baari, konsertti tai jääkiekko-ottelu. Tulee varmaan, taas kerran, yllätyksenä että ei siitä mitään hyötyä ollutkaan.

Ehkä korkeintaan se että suojataan rokottamattomia.

En ymmärrä enää tästäkään mitään.

Jos ne mamut jotka eivät ole hakeneet rokotetta saataisiin rokotettua niin tehohoidon kuormitus puolittuisi.
Koronapassi on rokotekattavuutta ilman rasismia.

Jenkkilän Qanon kuningattaren viisauksia. Mistä lähtien syöpä on ollut kulkutauti ?
Kiitti kun muistat mainostaa tuotakin. Laita viestiä YLE:lle jospa tekisivät gannonista jonkun informaatiopläjäyksen koko kansalle niin saadaan Suomessakin asti julkisuutta, muissakin kuin dimmupiireissä.
