One year ago today, because of operation Warp Speed, the COVID vaccine became available to people in the US:

History made, millions saved: One year later, 'surreal' moments of COVID-19 vaccine debut live on
A year ago, trucks rolled out of Pfizer's Portage, Michigan plant carrying the first doses of COVID-19 vaccine to be delivered in the U.S.

The UK is losing their shit over Omicron:
www.theguardian.com
The growing threat means the urgent twin imperatives of all policy now are to save lives and prevent the NHS becoming overwhelmed by what Boris Johnson in his televised address called “the tidal wave of Omicron coming”. The UK Health Security Agency has already warned that the new variant could produce 1m infections a day by New Year’s Eve.
So the question is: what are we doing?
UK’s 1m a day booster rollout is strategy of short-term pain for long-term gain
Analysis: next few weeks will be tough for anyone who relies on the health service as well as those who work in it

Yes Wetnose,

UK omicron cases estimated at 200,000 infections every day, Sajid Javid says.
It comes as the NHS’ Covid alert level was raised to four, the highest possible level.
The number of daily Omicron infections in the UK has been estimated as being at 200,000, Sajid Javid has said as he warned omicron cases are going to “dramatically increase”.

Beyond Omicron: what’s next for COVID’s viral evolution
The rapid spread of new variants offers clues to how SARS-CoV-2 is adapting and how the pandemic will play out over the next several months.
www.nature.com
“There’s this assumption that something more transmissible becomes less virulent. I don’t think that’s the position we should take,” says Balloux. Variants including Alpha, Beta and Delta have been linked to heightened rates of hospitalization and death — potentially because they grow to such high levels in people’s airways. The assertion that viruses evolve to become milder “is a bit of a myth”, says Rambaut. “The reality is far more complex.”
In Denmark & Norway:
The transmissibility of the virus was showcased after a corporate Christmas party in Norway's capital of Oslo resulted in at least 140 infections.
Held by renewable power company Scatec on November 26, the most recent numbers suggest around 120 guests were in attendance, with an additional 400 to 500 patrons also attending the same restaurant that night.
As of December 9, the FHI reported that 70 per cent of Scatec's guests were infected with Covid (111 guests), with an additional 60 customers from the restaurant also testing positive. This is despite the fact all partygoers were fully vaccinated and had returned a negative Covid test within three days of the party.

So who is gonna start the Omicrap thread?
Damn I wonder if strip clubs gonna fold to this "Virus".
News from "Axios" linked in the Drudge report.
Anyone see Alex Jones film "Endgame" 2007?
Unending waves of "Viruses" will be used to corporate capture society and governments??!!
Interesting they use "Data hints".... so impersonal like no organization is behind the "data" to be held accountable.
Data hint Omicron cases poised to explode in USA...
Wait until they say "2 weeks lockdown to flatten the curve"
We now know what that means.

QUÉBEC...DUBÉ...ce jour,
-OMICRON....encore sous contrôle....une quarantaine de cas à ce jour MAIS DUBÉ affirme avec raison que c'est sous estimé....va accroître le criblage.
-VACCINATION.....avec OMICRON qui va être très contagieux DUBÉ presse les non vaccinés à bouger et recommande aux personnes à risque et aux 60 ans et plus de procéder asap à leur 3ème dose....ne bouge pas encore pour les autres catégories pce qu'il manque
500 vaccinateurs minimum.
-TESTS RAPIDES....10 millions disponibles dès LUNDI à travers le RÉSEAU PHARMACEUTIQUE....5 tests gratuits par personne /30 jours.....jusqu'au 31 Mars 2022.
-NOEL...garde le cap POUR LE MOMENT pour des rassemblements de 20 personnes VACCINÉES APRÈS LE 23 DÉCEMBRE....MAIS fait appel au bon sens/jugement des citoyens....on le sentait de plus en plus hésitant...lol....mais avec raison. Pourrait changer d'idée
si la tendance actuelle se maintient..et même s'attend dans les prochains jours/semaines à de fortes hausses....donc....à suivre.

Ontario is estimating the R-nought of Omicron to be 4.01 - which means 1 person can potentially infect 4, who each infect another 4 and so on.
For comparison, Delta's R-nought is 1.09 - so 100 people could infect another 109, etc etc.
globalnews.ca
There's still 1.9M people in QC who are not fully vaccinated. This could be very bad.

Omicron driving up Canada’s R value at ‘unprecedented’ rate. Here’s what that means - National | Globalnews.ca
The reproductive rate of the Omicron variant in Ontario is almost four times as much as the Delta variant, which experts say could result in an overwhelmed health-care system.

And yes, I have been triple vaccinated and I'm in a vulnerable group (i.e. I'm human).

U.K. reports record daily COVID-19 cases with Omicron spreading rapidly
The United Kingdom recorded its most daily coronavirus cases since the start of the pandemic on Wednesday as a senior British health chief said there could be a 'staggering' rise over the next few days.
LONDON -- The United Kingdom recorded its highest daily coronavirus cases since the start of the pandemic on Wednesday as a senior British health chief said there could be a "staggering" rise in cases over the next few days.
A further 78,610 COVID-19 infections were reported, about 10,000 more than the previous high reported in January.
More than 11 million people have now tested positive for the disease in the United Kingdom, which has a total population of around 67 million.
MONTRÉAL---DRE.DROUIN....ce jour,
En date d'hier 844 nouveaux cas et 3 décès---augmentation de 90% de la semaine précédente ----encore variant DELTA dominant MAIS 95 cas OMICRON détecté.....on s'attend à une hausse encore plus importante. Taux de positivité est passé de 5% à 8%.
Moyenne d'âge est jeune soit 32 ans....et 50% des cas sont en provenance des États-Unis !!!!.......suggère fortement de RÉDUIRE les contacts/ partys de bureau/rassemblements collégiaux et universitaires/partys privés....et s'en tenir au télétravail.
Faut se préparer à une hausse importante des hospitalisations.....actuellement 78 hospitalisations et 34 aux soins intensifs.....et les urgences débordent de 127% à 150%...très mauvais signe en cette période des Fêtes,
VACCINATION....81 % des Montréalais sont doublement vaccinés MAIS seulement 40% des 5-11 ans le sont.....du travail encore à faire.......140 travailleurs de la santé sont atteints de la COVID actuellement.
CANADA...ce jour....le MINISTRE de la Santé DUCLOS déconseille fortement aux Canadiens les voyages non essentiels pour 4 semaines.....craint qu'ils puissent se retrouver en danger/coincés dans des pays ou sévit de facon exponentielle le variant OMICRON.
Ce n'est pas le temps de voyager......statu quo pour les voyageurs étrangers MAIS la situation pourrait vite changer.

Lego made his announcement but I am surprised by the measures as I expected them to shut the bars down. Anyhow restaurants and bars will have to cut capacity limits to 50%. Karaoke and dancing on the floor will be banned. Places of worship will have mandatory vaccine passports. Workers will be asked to work from home. Xmas gatherings max 10. But we both know not much people will respect the measures and will host Xmas parties. Cases will keep on going up all in time for when they are pushing 3rd booster shots. Also in some months a 3rd booster shot will be mandatory for the vaccine passport.

COVID updates, Dec. 16: Quebec cuts capacity limits in stores, bars, restaurants to 50% as of Monday
Province reduces interval between doses to three months, speeds up booster shots for people age 60-69, with all adults eligible as of January. Holiday gatherings capped at 10 people.

Explosion des cas à la prison de Bordeaux
Les cas de COVID-19 ont quadruplé à la prison de Bordeaux au cours des cinq derniers jours.

COVID-19 cases have quadrupled at Bordeaux prison in the past five days.
The Montreal detention facility now has 160 prisoners and 11 infected staff within its walls, while 37 people were infected with the virus last weekend.
The wealthiest liberal democracies with the highest vaccination rate. Sounds fishy to me.
I smell aliens with space lasers being directed by the UN. The same ones that were lighting forest fires.
