Here’s what the mainstream media won’t tell you about the actual origin of the Omicron variant

The Omicron variant of Covid-19, also known as strain B.1.1.529, made headlines internationally. But while many people wonder about the origin of this new virus, here’s what we know: The first four cases of the Omicron variant reported were from “fully vaccinated” patients.

The Omicron variant was first identified in Botswana in early November, but it is believed to be driving a gift spike in cases in South Africa. Also known as variant B.1.1.529, it has been found in Botswana, South Africa and Hong Kong to date.

“There’s a lot we don’t understand about this variant,” said Richard Lessells, an infectious disease physician at the University of KwaZulu-Natal in Durban, South Africa. “The mutation profile worries us, but now we need to do the work to understand the significance of this variant and what it means for the pandemic response.”

“We’re flying at vertical speed,” Penny Moore, a virologist at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa, told Nature. Moore added that “at this stage, it’s too early to say anything” about anecdotal reports of reinfection and cases in vaccinated people.

However, the government of Botswana’s Covid-19 Task Force has revealed important information about the origin of the Omicron variant that has yet to be widely covered in the US media.

“The President’s Covid-19 Task Force is informing the public that four (4) cases of a new Covid-19 variant now known as B.1.1.529, have been reported and documented on Wednesday. Two November 22, 2021,” Botswana task force coordinator Dr. K. Masupu said. “Four (4) cases were detected among travelers who tested positive for SARS-COV-2 during routine pre-travel testing. Variant tests were performed as part of routine genomic surveillance of SARS-COV-2 as specified in our COVID-19 response plan. ”

The report goes on to say: “Preliminary reports indicate that all four have been fully immunized against COVID-19. “As part of continuing investigations into the virus to establish and contain its local transmissions, contact tracing has revealed close contacts are now awaiting their results and the public will be informed of the results of the exercise.”

“Initial investigations of the virus determined that the new variant had a high number of mutations compared with the locally dominant Delta variant,” the task force added. “What this means is still unclear and is under investigation. New variants have the potential to influence the severity of the disease, how effectively tests detect the disease, and how likely the vaccine is to be effective.”

The government also dispelled rumors that this variant originated in HIV-positive patients. The New York Times provided additional background information on the origin of the Omicron variant among human patients.

“Omicron first came to light in Botswana, where researchers at the Harvard Botswana HIV Reference Laboratory in Gaborone sequenced the genome of the coronavirus from samples that tested positive,” the Times reported. “They found some samples shared about 50 mutations not found in such a combination before. So far, six people have tested positive for Omicron in Botswana, according to an international database of variants. “

“During the same time period, researchers in South Africa by chance discovered Omicron in a cluster of cases in Gauteng province,” the report continued. “As of Friday, they have listed 58 Omicron samples on the variant database. But at a news conference on Thursday, Tulio de Oliveira, Director of the Center for Epidemiological Response and Innovation in South Africa, said that ‘nearly two or three hundred’ genetic sequences of Omicron cases will be released in the next few days. “

Dr de Oliveira said at the press conference: “This variant surprised us. “But the full meaning is still uncertain.”

The New York Times did not report that the first patients reported as positive for Covid with the Omicron variant were “fully vaccinated”. It just raises the possibility that “perhaps” the person who got the vaccine could spread it.

“WHO says the new version, dubbed Omicron, carries several genetic mutations that could have allowed it to spread rapidly, possibly even among vaccinated people,” the Times noted.

Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche, a leading critic of the global immunization program that ignore natural immunity, mRNA therapies are being marketed as ‘vaccines’ that could help fuel the variants. He holds a DVM from Ghent University, Belgium and a PhD in Virology from the University of Hohenheim, Germany. He has worked for several vaccine companies: GSK Biologicals, Novartis Vaccines, Solvay Biologicals. He has contributed to vaccine research and development as well as late vaccine development.

Vanden Bossche was hired by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s Global Health Discovery team in Seattle (USA) as Senior Program Manager, before moving on to work with the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunizations (GAVI). ) in Geneva as Senior Ebola Program Director. He is also a member of the German Center for Infection Research in Cologne as Head of the Vaccine Development Office.

“Since the early days of mass vaccination campaigns, at least some experts have warned of the catastrophic impact such a program could have on individual and global health,” said Vanden. Bossche write in a blog post. “Mid-pandemic mass vaccination tends to promote selection and adaptation of immune escape variants characterized by increased infectivity and resistance to mutant protein-directed antibodies (S. ) (Abs), thereby reducing protection in vaccines and threatening unvaccinated individuals. ”

He continued: “This explains why the WHO mass vaccination program not only failed to induce herd immunity (HI) but even led to a significant erosion of the immune defenses of the population. population. “As the ongoing mass vaccination program will soon promote the predominant transmission of highly infectious, highly neutralizing mutants (e.g., the so-called ‘anti-S Ab’), naturally acquired, or vaccination-neutralized Abs, will practically no longer provide any protection to vaccinated individuals while high infection pressure will continue to prevent block the innate immune defenses of unvaccinated people. “

“This means that each further increase in vaccine coverage will contribute to forcing resistant viruses to inactivate Abs-specifically,” he continued. “The increased infectivity of the virus, combined with the avoidance of antiviral immunity, will inevitably lead to further loss of human health and human life.”

“Therefore, immediate action is needed to dramatically reduce viral infection rates and prevent selected immune-escaping variants from spreading rapidly throughout the population,” he added. , whether vaccinated or not. “This important first step can only be achieved by calling for the immediate cessation of the mass immunization program and its replacement with the widespread use of antiretroviral chemotherapeutic agents while devoting medical resources to massive public health system to expand early treatments for Covid-19.”

While the US media is openly discussing whether the Omicron variant can be spread by ‘fully vaccinated’, the truth is they already know it can. The available Covid-19 tracing information suggests that the first Omicron variant patients were ‘fully vaccinated’, but they refuse to report this honestly and transparently. It is clear that the corporate media’s willingness to report the truth is far weaker than their loyalty to failed political agendas and addiction to sky-high profits.
