Patient Zero for the Omicron variant of Covid was fully vaccinated

[Rambunctious]

Just for the sake of discussion. In most arguments it's noted that this variant is pretty weak. Symptoms are mild. Is that because he was vaccinated?

Probably not. Viruses usually mutate and become more contagious....but they become less deadly.

Facts are facts, there's no way this man could have gotten on a plane from South Africa to Hong Kong without proof of vaccination.

Vaccinated people are creating and spreading new variants of this disease.

COVID-19: How the spread of Omicron went from patient zero to all around the globe

On 12 November, a man arriving in Hong Kong from South Africa was tested and found to be positive for a COVID variant that is now ringing alarm bells across the planet. Here's what alerted the world to the threat.

news.sky.com

Patient zero, called n=1 or the index case by the scientific community, arrived at Hong Kong International Airport on 11 November, having flown in from South Africa via Doha in Qatar, on flight QR818.

He had been in South Africa for almost three weeks, and had tested negative the day before he began his trip there.

On his return to the territory on the Qatar Airways flight, the 36-year-old was in seat 31A, and was showing no symptoms when he checked into the Regal Airport Hotel in Chek Lap Kok, to begin his mandatory quarantine. He also tested negative on his return.


Hong Kong has some of the most stringent regulations on arrival in the world.

Anyone coming from a "high-risk" country can only board flights for the territory if they are fully-vaccinated Hong Kong residents and even then they have to undergo compulsory isolation for 21 days in a designated quarantine hotel when they arrive.

This report has cookies coercion bullshit, and badger refuses that coercion. Where did the dipshit get vaccinated. Where does the dipshit live most of the time? Which vaccine did the dipshit get vaccinated with?

Omicron variant is aware of the vaccines. It mutates at precisely the heptad repeat region that is required to stabilize the spike protein before proceeding with making vaccine. N969K is that mutation. Duh

 

[badger2]

But if it was Chinese vaccine, then that’s one type of adenovirus, human-based. If it’s AstraZeneca, it’s chimp-based. Was AstraZeneca used at all in South Africa?

Too bad Marv you don't keep up with the news by watching Real America's Voice like I do to have heard from actual live virologists explain that all this mega vaccination is CREATING these new, deadlier strains because the idiots in Washington in panic mode are not treating Covid LIKE EVERY OTHER FUCKING VIRUS IN HISTORY.

Instead, the assholes running this country have treated everyone like a doctor treating every person with a little sniffle by packing them full of penicillin until, you know what happens--- the little bugs get resistant to the antibiotic, the few variants which are resistant survive and multiply because THERE IS NOTHING LEFT and soon, we are where we are now running out of antibiotics which work anymore.

And they've done pretty much the same thing with Covid. Unvaccinated people are developing REAL immunity while all the poor vaccinated schmucks are breeding grounds for ever stronger bugs which no vaccination can stop all the while we ony have vaccines good for a few months---- not even a whole year like the flu.

Not enough information to form a judgment, yet the propaganda is all ready in full swing.

Probably not. Viruses usually mutate and become more contagious....but they become less deadly.

Maybe that it is how nature designs immunity to keep virus's from causing mass extinctions--as a virus goes along--it mutates becoming less deadly as the targeted animals acquire natural immunity. It could really be this easy..

That’s why we rely on science. The Omicron mutation N969K points to a vaccine-induced mutation.

Yes....but the more they lock down the longer it takes to get herd immunity.

But but but, I thought it was one of those unvaccinated Trump supporters. I'll be waiting to see this on the 6:30 news tonight but I can already bet it won't be on. This one must be covered up.

BS. There is no evidence this person was first to have Omnicron, however THERE IS evidence that Omnicron breaks through vaccination more easily.

Mutated form of coronavirus may be more contagious, but less deadly, experts say

A common mutation of the novel coronavirus seen in the United States may be more infectious but less deadly, according to recent reports.

Israel has two fully vaccinated and boostered doctors listed as their first Omicron victims----they were saying that they only have mild problems from it and were trying to say that the vaccinations prevented worse---but so far the virus has only hit vaccinated people that I know of...

Doctor in SA had 50% of Omnicroners unvaccinated.

Now you know.

Maybe try looking it up. I would focus on stories that discuss the topic before COVID became political.

I heard it on the news.....and the news never lies......but different viruses act differently. Usually mutations are more contagious....whether or not they become more deadly is something that can happen but often doesn't. The problem with the so-called vaccines they're using is they don't actually help make you immune. They simply make it easier to spread the disease. It makes you seem asymptomatic so you can spread the virus without knowing it.....which makes it perfect for socialists who want to control everything we say and do. They're turning the vaccinated into a media or petri dish from which to spread mutations. Mutations that our natural immunity cannot cope with. I also heard that the shots are lowering our T cell count so we become more sick and more susceptible to other diseases like polio and whatever illegals may be carrying with them when Biden ships them to all parts of the country.

Well if that is the case, then when the SA doctor talks of only mild issues with this strain they mean both unvaccinated and vaccinated...ergo whats the point of getting vaccinated? Chance it--catch the omicron version where chances of surviving are great and hope for natural immunity preventing the worse strains. It also means that when they say that the Israeli doctors were fully vaccinated and thusly able to have no real issues with omicron, that they are talking out of their ass. NO one has really any issues with omicron.
