Another variant

Very little is known about it but the media have decided it's worthy of setting every fucker panicking

It'll be forgotten in 2 weeks, like all the other variants that come and go.

 

Not this one it seems.

Even Ursula is booting off over it.

Could be a few stuck in Sarth Efrica for a while though. Which, given the weather, may not be so bad.

Just seen a live interview with a lass in Schiphol airport. 

1000 people held in a terminal pending being tested and possibly quarantined in Amsterdam. Come from South Africa.

Only medical staff around, as airport ones are apparently concerned about catching new variant.

This apparently includes no food being provided neither!

Ouch.

Queues at Manchester last night were huge because of all the dozy cunts who didn’t have the right forms.

Dozy, handsome bastards.

They don't usually check any forms at Manchester. They're supposed to check them before you get on the flight! (I'm assuming you were coming back from Italy and therefore in passport control)

EU looking at possibly stopping flights between EU countries. Lock down in Europe is coming.

It'll be given a Greek official name shortly by the WHO if they can remember what the next letter is

Omicron (14th letter thereof).

I dont think we will ever learn

What's the point of saying no flights from Africa while letting in a flight from, let's say, France

Which has probs got somebody on from Africa 

 

Anyway, when a virus mutates, all sorts happen

It could be way more spreadable but weaker

I'd take that

[Morizio]

and it’s in Belgium. Fingers crossed/pray it turns out to be much less potent than the prominent delta strain 

[waffer cup 07]

Its just like this variant has just come to light in the last day or two, it's actually the most dominate variant in South Africa. So why has the rest of the world only just woken up to it.

Stable door and all that....

There are numerous variants, all of which take time to be analysed from date of discovery. 

Not an instantaneous process for the scientific community to decide whether or not the should be put on the "concerned" list.

[green genie]

Wonder how many Boks fans just been on UK tour had it? 

 

[Spider]

It’s here

We’re doomed etc…

[stevieb]

Another variant and we're all sat here thinking they've identified it and it's coming in on the next plane... Not that it's been about for ages and is probably all over the globe already.

Just like alpha was probably here months and months before the news told us it was.

 

 

Anyway... Is having a proper spicy curry when you can't taste owt wise? Thinking of being billy big spuds and having a takeaway tonight. 

Reckon it will backfire (literally) tomorrow morning. 

[Spider]

This press conference is absolute fucking nonsense.

 

[Marc505]

I haven't missed the standard of questioning from media in these briefings.

[Spider]

Spain have now said Brits can only enter the country if they’ve been vaxxed.

Negative tests no longer acceptable.

Lol.

One of my favourite curry memories was a mate at uni powering through a vindaloo insisting he could handle it as he half hung off his chair, sweating profusely, barely able to speak 

I never go above madras

When I was at uni I saw a lad down a vindaloo in one from a foil tray like it was a pint of lager.

His prize was the get it paid for. All £3.20 of it.
