Global markets fall after Moderna Omicron warning

Stock markets around the world have fallen after the boss of Moderna cast doubts on the effectiveness of vaccines against the new Omicron Covid variant.

Stephane Bancel told the Financial Times he thought there would be a "material drop" in vaccine efficacy.

The Covid variant was first detected in South Africa, and the symptoms have been mild so far. But travel restrictions have been imposed as a precaution by places including the UK, the EU and the US.

Mr Bancel predicted that existing vaccines would be less effective in staving off Omicron, and that it would take months for drugs companies to update vaccines.

Omicron is very mild and people don't even know they have it, or have had it, until they are told. The 'vaccines' have stopped us from getting herd immunity because you can only reach herd immunity if you have a transmission blocking vaccine, which these are not.

ScoMo has the right idea this time. Let it go.

I agree but when you say "let it go" are you telling me to let it go or are you saying it's time to let the virus just run its course?

Let the virus run its course.

That's the whole idea of herd immunity

At the moment we just don't know enough so how about people hold off on making any firm predictions?

Recommended actions for people

The most effective steps individuals can take to reduce the spread of the COVID-19 virus is to keep a physical distance of at least 1 metre from others; wear a well-fitting mask; open windows to improve ventilation; avoid poorly ventilated or crowded spaces; keep hands clean; cough or sneeze into a bent elbow or tissue; and get vaccinated when it’s their turn.

I'm doing everything except the vaccination bit.

Oh and I use lots of bleach and disinfectant and I'm washing clothes and towels all the time. I'm sterilising all utensils and crockery yadda yadda yadda. Also doing as much as I can online.

Our water and electricity bills are through the roof and I'm ready for a new washing machine and dishwasher

Meantime my husband has been told he needs to get jab no 3. His Covid19 tests keep coming back negative thank God.

What a shitful time this is for everyone.

Don't know what else to say except: Do what you feel you must to stay safe.
