This is not going to be good’: Moderna CEO on what scientists are telling him about the omicron coronavirus variant


----------

I mean I guess I wouldn't expect any scientist to say a new variant is good news but the CEO is going heavy in that article. At some point he'll figure out a way to make a few billion on it.

I immediately thought of Lurr, when they started talking about "Omicron"

Well, when you're a hammer everything looks likes a nail. Moderna only makes the bucks if Omicron is a killer and not just a slight headache so this is largely a paid for announcement to drive up stock costs.

I'll wait for the facts... as in the unadulterated version of the facts.

Nature may have produced a vaccine for us, one that actually confers durable immunity. Not for nothing, but Omicron looks like it might be the strain to get—highly contagious with a very mild symptom profile.

It said its "best practices for naming disease suggest avoiding causing offence to any cultural, social, national, regional, professional or ethnic groups".



Now just who is it that has 'Xi' as part of his name?


Siouxie and the Banshees?

Dr. Coetzee did exactly what she was supposed to do. Unfortunately, the rest of the world freaked out. Most likely Omicron did not originate in South Africa so they are indeed being unfairly punished for the announcement.

The unfortunate overreaction may well quash any one from making any announcements regarding new mutations or the spread of the virus.

Dr. Coetzee states in the piece I posted, "This version of the virus [Omicron] had been circulating in southern Africa for some time, having been previously identified in Botswana."

I went down to the farm store and bought some macxine. It's like a vaccine except it works and is affordable and doesn't have nasty side effects.

My favorite part of the article. LOL

"Product sales from its coronavirus vaccine accounted for $4.81 billion of Moderna’s $4.97 billion in revenue in the third quarter."

That's just plain mean...

Ballz is out in Oregon dying from the Covid (except he is on here posting all might)... and you ask such an insensitive question.

Shame on you... Shame... Shame... Shame.


If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Sadly not many people see it like you do. People have turned into sheep, and the art of critical thinking is lost on most.

I’m optimistic that people are starting to wake
up however, I pray that’s the case!!

It is easier to trick a person than convince them they’ve been tricked.
