Can you please explain to me how the other variants disappeared so quickly?

Use crayons, not being a dick asking a for real question?
Current assumption is that anybody that is recovering from any of the three dominant strains of covid that we've had Wuhan, Delta, omicron has some period of circulating antibodies that protect against all three.

Each has been successively more transmissible than the previous. This seems appropriate for expectations of viral evolution.


Punchline: The one that transmits the most will become the dominant strain. The others haven't disappeared but they are having a hard time finding hosts that are not already recovered with circulating antibodies or vaccinated.

Claim: Putting water on the home covid tests will give a positive result.

Fact check: They don't know why. Although the Rona has not been found in any water supply.

Splinty @Splinty hasn't Casirivimab/imdevimab (Regeneron for the normies) been shown to be less effective at treating Omicron?

Sheepdog @Former Maycee Barber Fan John Lee Pettimore @John Lee Pettimore this is a terrible look for the government of Australia imo:


You create rules for entry for foreign nationals. One of them allows medical exemptions to the vaccination requirement. Decisions on exemptions are made by an independent medical body.

Djokovic gets such an exemption. Reason not made public bc of privacy laws, obviously.

People get upset so the leader of the country seemingly reneges on the already granted exemption but only after Djokovic takes a cunt of a flight to Australia.

Make rules/laws and stick to them. Shit makes you look like a banana republic.
