Thank you, Dr. McMillan. It’s always better to be forewarned so as to be forearmed. Looking forward to your sharing of the protocols you recommend. I follow the FLCCC one to very good effect. My Omicron infection with ivermectin and HCQ both, was a two day, mild affair. Am hoping to head off this variant too, with early treatment beginning on day one of symptoms. As a retired NP, I’ve had the pleasure of helping quite a few people get through the Delta and Omicron waves, all with great success.
Dear Philip - wasn't it you who posted an article on BA 2.75 thats the most closest Omic-Var. to DELTA ? You had a graph in there showing some "lung variables". Japan can confirm your "theory" ? Besides that J to me is prove that masks overall are of no use - for months now they have 150 - 250K+ new inf./day and they heavily use masks everywhere/anytime. (No FFP2/KN95 though right?)
My question would be: Do you/we have expetiences in BA 2.75 loaded countries in regard of similarity towards Delta ? (ICU, DEATH rates (CFR)). In Japan they allegedly can (are allowed) to use IVM ......do you know something about it ? India on BA 2.75 ? Or is 2.75 less dangerous as it came quite late with a good sort of "partial herd immunity" ?
Australia too has felt the impact of BA2.75, but it’s effects during our recent winter are now on the decline. Given the lower levels of immunisation in USA now into Fall, you are indeed correct to have concerns. The effects here, on both workforce and health systems, have been considerable. I cannot see how USA can fare better, given your (relatively) low vax and boosted rates.
The Israeli MoH recently got caught with their pants down. A video conference call was leaked where committee members were discussing the large amount of vaccine injuries....and how to hide them from the public because of liability issues. Some of the people involved said that they had moral qualms about it, but in the end they ‘doctored’ what was released to the public. They lied. Case closed.
Jan, I think what is most concerning is the vaccinated getting much sicker this winter in the USA where I live. The unvaccinated have unencumbered, healthy innate immune systems that can respond much better than someone who has repeatedly imprinted their immune system with old, outdated spike antibodies leading to non-neutralizing antibodies. As long as good early treatment protocols are available to all of us, things should go ok, especially for the unvaccinated. It is the vaccinated, especially the repeatedly vaccinated that I worry about!
That doesn’t match with the broader data, which shows that the RATES of severe illness and deaths are still significantly higher in the unvaccinated! Since they are (generally) a much smaller cohort now, it appears that they are less severely affected - the Simpson Paradox yet again.
If you wish to believe that data, then there nothing I or anyone else can say to convince you otherwise. But the rate of raging cancers, blood clots, neurological disorders, near constant infections of all sorts, and ultimately, the undermining of our precious immune systems, is evident all around us. Open your eyes, doctor. These injections were never needed in the first place and they are killing and injuring people en masse across every country that has used mass vaccination. It is absolutely shameful.
As a layman, I do not understand what "value" masks have to the wearers. Surely, the overwhelming evidence from the scientific literature and the most recent indeendent studies is that the kind of masks worn by the general public in Japan or elsewhere do not prevent the spread of COVID, while potentially causing physical and psychological harm - in the latter instance particularly to children? Their primary value would seem to be as a gesture of conformity to overweaning authority.
Non-vax, F age 70 was pleased to get through my turn presumably Ba2 early April when 1/13 UK pop was enjoying IT simultaneously. Not easy not fast, know the inate immunity is already waning but hopeful. UK NHS can not deal even w the catch up and word is out abt unexplained high rise is death. imo unlikely people will take anything serious till utter maddness rages.
I don't know this, but I probably should. What is the criteria for determining a new variant from a spin-off from an established variant? The number of mutations? Location? Nature of the mutations (are they likely to create major structural change in the protein or more specifically, epitopes? Is there even a standard?
Immunity waning is much more real from the vaccines than natural infection, by the simple Variable that they don’t take into account the antigenic difference that accounts for the breakthrough infections in unvaccinated.
Why have they stayed with the 'Omicron' tag for so long? Could it be that it will make the 'selling' of the 'Omicron booster' easier?
They will be telling everyone the next booster is for Omicron - the currently circulating variant.
Good question.
I was also trying to work out the answer.
Calling everything Omicron gives a false sense of variant evolution.

Thank you Philip!
The BA2.75 might not be the variant for the whole winter, but it can further weaken the population.
Good common sense message, will look out for your next one. Thanks.
Thanks Dr McMillan much appreciated this information

True Wolf.
I had done a post on that previously, will dig it out.

I see no reason to try barely tested poisons.

You seriously believe that poison is helpful? 🙄
I know, I didn’t word that very well.
In my defense, I was shocked that someone was seemingly still advocating getting the shots....😖
Substack notifications are confusing...my reply was actually to Dr Jan Sheringham.
I wondered about that.😏

Thank You. I check our minneapolis metro area, weekly, sewage testing report for "community covid". https://metrocouncil.org/Wastewater-Water/Services/Wastewater-Treatment/COVID19-Research.aspx
"We are testing for BA.2.75 but have not seen it in Metro Plant influent." I share your concerns.
Dock I so appreciate your message but I also adore your command of The language diction & message . With deep respect
Thank you.
Masks? Are you kidding, doc?
If not working in Japan, will probably not be very valuable elsewhere.
However, every step is valuable.
