#4 President Joe Biden earlier Friday banned travel from South Africa and seven other countries in the region, following in the footsteps of the UK, Israel and the EU

#5 New York declares a State of $$$$ Emergency $$$$. Troops ordered to assist Michigan. How far are we from Martial Law and FEMA region military governance ?

If one or two states are under lockdown and are unable to hold elections, the electoral process must surely be suspended until this menace is brought under control.

#6 

NYC, a city of about 9 Million has had 5,785 Covid-19 cases in last week and 26 claimed deaths.

Current odds of infection are about 0.0642 of 1%.

Current Odds of Dying IF infected are about 0.4494 of 1%


So Declare A Panic and Lockdown.
BTW: Did you stop International flights into NYC?
What screening steps are being taken at the Airports?

#8 The point of the fable of "The boy who cried wolf," was not that there was no wolf, but rather, when the wolf actually came, nobody believed it.

#9 To secure entry into the US, South African travelers should declare themselves "migrants" and enter through Del Rio TX (with appropriate contributions to the Biden Crime Family of course). Problem solved.

#17 One thing about viral epidemics, the viruses strongly tend to get less lethal the more contagious they are. We are even seeing that with COVID-19. I anticipate the pandemic will burn out when COVID-19 is as common as the common cold. The media will cover that up as long as they can get away with it.

#18 Ebola may be an exception to #17. However it kills so fast that simple isolation of the sick works, unlike the case with COVID.

#19 Stock market tanked yesterday, not because investors fear Omicron, but because they fear this type of reaction from the politicians.

#20  President Joe Biden earlier Friday banned travel from South Africa and seven other countries in the region,

Rayciss, yes. Xenophobic too. And, yes, Biden ranted and raved about OrangeMan doing the same thing except that OrangeMan did it to China. That was the real no no.

Answer - may it irritate you, as much as you irritate us, in your ear or rear.

#28 first two weeks of Nov, South Africa averaged about 300 new infections a day.

Today, Nov 27 there were over 3000 new infections.

Fatality response is typically a week or two or three after infection so we won't have that for a while.

#29 #27 In keeping with the....travel theme, at #24, excellent caboose.

Thank you Mr.B, I've been a railman for years, and as you know the caboose was where railmen were given R&R on the long freight journey on the rails.

Unfortunately, the cabooses were retired some years ago, by about 2002.
However, the caboose still lives in our dreams.
