Here's me doubting the "South Africa Public Health hive mind"
From Pricewater Poopers website about their China Desk in South Africa:
"China, which is also the largest trade partner of South Africa, further indicates that the trade and investment relationship and activities between the two countries are closely intertwined.
In keeping with the trend and to address the needs of our clients, PwC South Africa has established a dedicated China Desk staffed with Mandarin speaking professionals, to organise and coordinate expertise across PwC South Africa, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore so as to add value to our clients’ businesses."
Ah yes, the OLD "you can get reinfected with this weird modern magic virus" trope. We debunked that one within 2 weeks in 2020 when the Samsung contact tracing app was shown to be buggy and was duplicate-counting priors on delay. Nobody in Korea was ever re-infected, but by then the media fell in love with it and ran with that meme. Now they are trying the Old Playbook with Omicron for one last hurrah. (Please let it be the last.) If true, can we predict what will be the next agitprop talking point? I will predict: "You really shouldn't take ibuprofen for Omicron."
Not sure if they are" trying" the playbook yet - just making sure it's loaded up and ready to cite if needed. The active perception among Skilled TV Watchers (as Couey would say) seems to be that natural immunity only lasts a few months...
The basic data on natural immunity leading into Delta is AT LEAST 8 months (study cut off at that time). Israel in August showed booster delivers a calculated improvement of 12 additional days. Don't let your local Fauciites get away with these talking points. https://hiddenmarkov.substack.com/p/12-daysjust-12-days
Right, I just mean that the 20 month drip-feed of "We just don't know" falsehoods RE natural immunity has been transformed in the minds of most people into a permanent official fact about the virus
I'm thinking Tom and Jerry. As long as we're all as plucky and irreverent as Jerry, we have hope and maybe one day we'll wake up and remember this all as a Saturday morning cartoon, captivating enough to waste our entire morning and maybe midday, yet brief enough that it didn't spoil our entire weekend.

The endless BS is tiring. I’m still shocked how many buy it.

Fun fact, Delta Omicron is an anagram of Media Control.
Isn't it, "i contrOl meDia"? Perhaps the virus is trying to speak to us.
Ha, no - I must have used a control C instead of X on the "i" at first. Well, both renditions are quite convincing.
Could probably make something work if you included Xi.
"Perhaps the virus is trying to speak to us"
I'm expecting someone like Boris Johnson to rip his mask off and have a giant virus for a head to be quite honest.
That would be a relief. I'd trust a virus driving a Politician Suit over Ted Turner any day.
Anagrams are really not up my alley. So far all I can come up with is: "misinformation" = "if ii tan mormons"...
Try Omicron Variant:
