Not sure what is going on in the US, but europe gets full crazy.
Seems that they planning a validity date for the certificate (vaccinated or recovered).

so its a simple vaccine mandate for boosters because without valid certificate you are like unvaxxed.
also some countries in europe want limitations for unvaxxed til end of 2022 .. :oops:

what now?

Ok, ok, tell me you'd have enough imagination to make this one up (and it's true!). What a clown world we live in...

I'm telling you, the people in charge are fully vaxed and look how they are thinking. The ticking time-bomb in the vax is working already. Told ya this was going to be a trojan horse.

Germany is full crazy.
There are many people who wants to die (because they will anyway soon and already suffer), but they are not allowed to. So they have euthanasia clinics where you can suffer til dead.
According to news the highest court in Germany decided that this practice is illegal and people can choose to die if they want !
But politics dont want that, they want people to suffer.

So it makes sense that unvaxxed people are refused there. Others could die too fast without any suffering over years.

The bums running this country should really think outside the box. Already cases of Omicron being reported in parts of Europe and Canada and yet the US has still yet to impose a travel ban on those countries. Oh, and the US-Canada border still remains open. Breakthrough cases in the USA containing the Omicron variant are to be expected now. Sit tight

Latest cases, hopefully this turns out to be a minor variant in terms of CFR, hospitalization, etc or we are screwed. If you read the post a page or so back where two scientist were discussing among each other you can see how alarmed they were.

ETA

At 7.30 a.m. on Wednesday, Kristian Andersen, an infectious disease researcher at Scripps Research in San Diego, received a message on Slack: “This variant is completely insane.” Andrew Rambaut of the University of Edinburgh was reacting to a new SARS-CoV-2 genome sequence found in three samples collected in Botswana on 11 November and one picked up a week later in a traveler from South Africa to Hong Kong.

Andersen looked at the data and then replied: “Holy shit—that is quite something. The length of that branch...” A few minutes later he added: “Just had a look at the list of mutations—so nuts.”

They were talking about what is now called Omicron, a new variant of concern, and the long branch Andersen noticed refers to its distance to every other known virus on SARS-CoV-2’s evolutionary tree. The variant seemed to have picked up dozens of mutations, many of them known to be important in evading immunity or increasing transmissibility, with no intermediate sequences in the database of millions of viral genomes.

President Joe Biden on Monday urged Americans to get vaccinated or get their booster shots amid warnings about the spread of the Omicron variant – but warned that the infectious new variant was not a cause for 'panic.' 'You have to get your vaccine. You have to get the shot. You have to get the booster,' Biden said, speaking to the nation from the White House Roosevelt Room, which is now features a fireplace mantle decked out with holiday decorations.

Based upon everything I have read they have little to no idea if the vaccine recognizes this new variant based on the mutations.

$olution: Boo$ter$ $hot$ for all.
