Omicron-The Nice Guy (satire account)

I am #Omicron and this is my diary of my journey around the world.

I believe that people should make an INFORMED decision if they want to hang out with me.

Being a virus, I wonder why western societies think of the freedom of the individual so highly. With us, it is all about survival. As a species, we are trying to find ways to adapt to stress. And we do that very efficiently, much more efficiently than any individual ever could

'They’re designed to suppress freedom of the individual and suppress social contact, and they’re doing that through unreasonable fear-mongering.'

Conservative MP Sir Christopher Chope has criticised Boris Johnson's measures to combat the Omicron Covid variant.

@sailorrooscout Good News? Depends on how you read the article: one Israeli doctors travels to a medical conference in London where he gets infected w/ #omicron. Return ✈️(PCRneg.), then days later passes on to his colleague (both were 3 x(!)vacc. w/Pfizer)

People keep asking me: Are you dangerous?

@KamalaHarris Unfortunately, Kamala is right. Every time I enter someone vaccinated, they keep on throwing antibodies at me. Very unpleasant. And later on, these T-Cell buggers come along. Don´t expect the life of a virus to be all that easy, travelling and so on. No, no. It can be very harsh.

Thanks. I am off to Angola and Zambia. Best chances to get something going...

@NoorBinLadin Yes. You called me?

@LegendaryEnergy I think I definitely need to learn more about this economy stuff. Strange business.

@DrZoeHyde Bummer. I might need to meet some Japanese Tourists on the Christmas Market here in Saxony. Japan is definitely on my travel list

[Omicron-The Nice Guy (satire account) @OmicronNiceGuy]

@nowthisnews Great news for me. They are not thinking about entrance quarantine. Yippee. I can travel within folks in their incubation period. They will test negative upon arrival and then go straight to do their Christmas shopping. Yammi

[Omicron-The Nice Guy (satire account) @OmicronNiceGuy]

@DearAuntCrabby Totally agree. Look at me and let your gut decide.

[Omicron-The Nice Guy (satire account) @OmicronNiceGuy]

@ASlavitt Good news. More food available for potential reinfections. Immortality might actually come true for me.🙂

COVID-19: Don't socialise unless necessary to help slow Omicron variant spread, says UK health chief https://t.co/Hi5p5pEph0

[Omicron-The Nice Guy (satire account) @OmicronNiceGuy]

Interesting. I am still puzzled about the question if I am dangerous. Let's wait and see.

Update from @WHO on #omicron:

Transmissibility: “It is not yet clear…”

Severity of disease: “It is not yet clear…”

Immunity: “Preliminary evidence suggests there may be an increased risk of reinfection…

vaccines: “WHO is working … to understand the potential impact"

[Bob Wachter @Bob_Wachter]

What to do now?
1) If not vaxxed, get vaxxed
2) If not boosted & >4-5 mths out, get boosted
3) Get prepared mentally to act more cautiously if Omicron proves to be more infectious, immune-evasive, or both
4) Follow the news & science – will be much clearer in 2-3 wks
5) That's it
