Who’s had the vaccine ? Side effects ?

[Mark TKO]

Everyone needs the booster I thought as evidence suggests the vax wears off.

Over here you are eligible for it 6 months after your second jab.

six months? doesn't seem very effective at all. will you be taking as many boosters as they tell you to?

Dunno - see how it goes with this thing. But yes needing it 6 months later seems a concern

The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared a new coronavirus variant to be "of concern" and named it Omicron.

It had a large number of mutations, and early evidence suggested an increased reinfection risk, the WHO said.

It was first reported to the WHO from South Africa on 24 November, and has also been identified in Botswana, Belgium, Hong Kong and Israel.

A number of countries around the world have now decided to ban or restrict travel to and from southern Africa.

Amazing how they mutate in countries like Asia Wuhan, India Delta, Peru Lamba, S. Africa Omicron.

Not so much darker countries, but small countries or places where it is easy to question- like Asia! Has there ever been a virus, where names for strains were so readily available?

There was a Kent variant which emanated here in the UK, so they can mutate anywhere.

That is not the 15th letter of the Greek alphabet but thanks for continuing to confirm how gullible you continue to be. It is amazing how little curiosity you display.

How did you get spastic out of omicron? 'Cats Pis' would make more sense.

Thanks for letting me know it was an anagram me and most people on earth would never have guessed without that info.

I don’t think that’s where they necessarily mutated and began spreading. I think they were named after the place where the variant was first identified or sequenced by scientists there?
