Is it replacing Omicron 1? Is it as well as Omicron 1? , Can people who caught Omicron 1, catch BA.2? Only questions, I am afraid. Denmark has 357 thousand active cases. They only found BA.2 very recently? How quickly does BA.2 transmit? Pretty fast it seems! 170 thousand cases of BA.2 are going to do what they do. There is no containing it, whatever IT is.

If Omicron was engineered, which don't believe for a second (humanized mice/rats/camels), they did a pretty crappy job!

Maybe pigs will saves us?.. [link to www.sciencedaily.com (secure)]
 Quoting: Lago


Most likely, BA.2 has a transmission advantage over "Omicron 1".

But also very likely is that immune systems which saw "Omicron 1" will recognise BA.2, because the imprint of the N, M, E & S proteins will invoke the broad memory response.
So, the competition will continue for now.

Incidentally, you say Omi not engineered.
Yet, there is substantial evidence in:-
1. The lack of 'silent mutations',
2. A point mutation targetting the Furin Cleavage Site, rendering it useless -not, on its own, improbable - but..
3. Other mutations simultaneously making it more infectious overall.
4. Removal of most of the Q & N amino-acids simultaneously to render the prion-genicity of the spike essentially zero.

To me, 2 & 3 happening together make natural origin seem less likely, whilst point 1 in addition seals the deal.
Point 4 is a nice bonus from The Creator.
 Quoting: S-man

When I say not engineered, I should have said that covid 1 was not deliberately engineered to be let loose on the world. Even Hitler wasn't that bat-shit stupid (Mao Zedong did kill 45 million of his own people between 1958 and 1962 though). As a worst case covid-1 infected rodents in a lab and escaped into humans, a disgruntled lab person thought he could make a few bucks selling humanized infected rodents to the local food market, or we just got unlucky. Omicron 1 was probably infected humanized rodents by Covid 1, and it brewed inside them eventually infecting some unlucky human either through shit in their food or being bitten. If you have lived near a 3rd world food market, you would know why I think that.

It's over S-Man... it's over.

By April (at the latest), masks will be a thing of the past. My only concern is for those who have been vaccinated. They may need to reconsider their lifestyle. A common cold may be as dangerous as Ebola to them soon. Let's pray not, but I worry it very well may be the case.

But here's the million dollar question... WHY? Why did they do it? A lot of scientific minds pushed this... they had to know it wasn't going to work. This is what they do every day. It wasn't some taxi cad driver who "invented" and pushed this vaccine. It was some very intelligent people.

WHY?????????????????????????????????????????????????
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77791173


I don't think there is a one-fits-all explanation as to why.
BUT Bill Gates seems to be never more than a few clicks away from fundamentally BAD decisions.

- Some pushed it out of ignorance (didn't know spike itself was toxic).
- Some didn't believe there were effective treatments, so saw it as the only option.
-Some failed to appreciate that the situation as presented was not static - "vax or nothing" was offered as if it would be all we got to do for ever.
- Some feared for their jobs and had no spine (Andrew Hill! If you're reading, you're a spineless f*ck who has effectively murdered tens of thousands of people and caused hundres of thousands, if not millions to be maimed! - UNITAID and Gates again..)

- Some saw it as a political left vs. right issue (I think much of the initial Big Tech censorship was due to this, but it's not the only factor in Big Tech's malfeasance toward the pandemic)..

I know many laugh and have a belief that I am some kind of fake or fraud, but, and it is a big but, I play the drama llama for a very good reason - I stay alive, and my footsteps are covered.

I told people long before it was even public or even governmental level released, that Omicron is designed.

Mrs Doom is all about bats, SARS, MERS, airborne pathogens. She has hunted the very worst for decades.


Irony is that inside Omicron's design is the fingerprints of a genius.

I will add this from Mrs Doom.


"It is as if an African team of PhD stared long and hard at the scattered diaspora huddled in the ghettos of the world's megatropolises, saw how many were being coerced into actions they did not want to complete, and how a new wave of colonialism was about to explode across the African landscape, and said "I will create, for the melanin rich, a vaccine. For them."


They took 2 drugs they knew were deadly effective against sarscov2.

They designed Omicron to be exquisitely vulnerable to them both, all the while creating a vaccine able to annihilate wild strains of sarscov2 in all of its many forms.


This is the fingerprints of a team who deserve the Nobel peace prize many times over.


The answer to the African miracle is Vitamin D

B-Amyloid Prions and the Pathobiology of Alzheimer’s Disease






Below I not sure, here is the difference between Prion and Amyloids, please correct me if I am wrong.

[link to www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov (secure)]

Prion and Nonprion Amyloids

Prion and Nonprion Amyloids of Mammals
Prions were originally defined as a unique class of infectious agents, whose infectivity relates solely to protein. In mammals, they cause fatal neurodegenerative diseases, such as Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease of man, sheep scrapie and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (reviewed in refs. 1 and 2). All these diseases are related to the PrP protein, whose conformationally altered form (PrPSc) is able to convert the normal host-encoded protein (PrPC) into this altered prion form. While only one prion protein is known in mammals, the prions appear to represent just a part of a much wider phenomenon, amyloidoses.

Amyloid diseases represent a group of more than 30 human diseases, which are characterized by deposition in different tissues of fibrous aggregates of conformationally altered proteins.3 Some of these diseases, like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, represent a major challenge for the public health care in the developed countries. Although amyloidogenic proteins are structurally and functionally unrelated, they form morphologically similar amyloid fibers which reproduce the key properties of prions: the normal and polymer forms of amyloidogenic proteins are structurally different and the latter can promote polymerization of normal proteins into amyloid fibers. Unlike prion diseases, amyloid diseases are generally not transmissible.

Lately, the prion and amyloid phenomena acquired a more general significance for biology due to the finding of prions in lower eukaryotes and observations that in multicellular organisms they may be used in important biological mechanisms. It was shown that amyloid polymers of Pmel17 template and accelerate the polymerization of melanin precursor into melanin.4 Melanin precursor is toxic, while its polymers protect cells from a broad range of cytotoxic insults including UV and oxidative damage. A very important candidate for prion-like mechanism relates to long-term memory in animals. The translational regulator CPEB of Aplysia californica, which plays a key role in the long-term synaptic changes associated with memory storage, demonstrated prion-like properties in yeast.5

B-Amyloid Prions and the Pathobiology of Alzheimer’s Disease




 Quoting: whitepiedtv

For those interested in amyloidosis, I have kept a small library of links to papers concerning the link to the known forms of amyloidosis and Sars-Cov-s and the vaccines.

vCJD - mal-formed prion protein chain reaction/cascade.
Alzheimer's - Beta-amyloid protein
Parkinson's - Alpha-synuclein protein
ALS/Motor Neurone/ Lou Gehrig's - TDP43 protein

(these are all forms of amyloidosis occurring in the human brain.)

We were previously concerned with Spike-protein malforming prions. That risk seems to be lower now, though the Nucleocapsid of Sars-Cov-2 still has prion-genic regions.

(I have posted most of these before)

SARS-CoV-2 spike protein interactions with amyloidogenic proteins: Potential clues to neurodegeneration
"SARS-CoV-2 Spike S1 protein receptor binding domain (SARS-CoV-2 S1 RBD) binds to heparin and heparin binding proteins. Moreover, heparin binding accelerates the aggregation of the pathological amyloid proteins present in the brain. In this paper, we have shown that the SARS-CoV-2 S1 RBD binds to a number of aggregation-prone, heparin binding proteins including beta-amyloid, alpha-synuclein, tau, prion, and TDP-43

Neurotoxic Amyloidogenic Peptides Identified in the Proteome of SARS-COV2: Potential Implications for Neurological Symptoms in COVID-19
In this study we choose to focus on a selection of proteins from the SARS-COV-2 proteome known as the open reading frames (ORFs).

We performed a bioinformatic screening of the ORF proteins to look for potential amyloidogenic peptide sequences.
These ORF proteins were chosen as they have no obvious roles in viral replication, perhaps freeing them up to have yet uncharacterised roles in disrupting the host antiviral responses.

Application of the ZIPPER tool to ORF-6 provides more than 10 choices of six-residue windows of the sequence predicted to be highly amyloidogenic, while ORF10 shows only 3 such highly amyloidogenic sequence windows

This analysis was used to select two subsequences, one each from ORF6 and ORF10, for synthesis.The synthesised peptides were both found to rapidly self-assemble into amyloid assemblies with crystal, needle and ribbonlike morphologies.
