The 'Pirola' Sub-Variant (clade) BA.2.86 of COVID virus (SARS-CoV-2), IMO pure fear-porn hysteria, much ado about nothing! Based on all we know! 30 mutations on spike protein, so yes, more infectious
The COVID vaccine hits ONLY the spike protein (non-lethal selection pressure) not like natural exposure immunity that confers sterilizing immunity (stops infection, replication, transmission)
Stop it, stop listening to CNN and FOX news junk, those inept corrupted reporters. All the same. Stupid idiotic political reckless reporting. Harming people.
Take not one more shot, not one! None in your healthy child, NONE! No masks on any child, ever! Never worked and is toxic. see this paper I wrote prior:

Note, a virus will always seek to not arrive at an evolutionary dead-end (death of it the virus as it kills you out, it never wants to do that), it wants to survive and use your cellular metabolic machinary to replicate itself and so will select for mutations and variants that result in it being ‘milder’, more infectious but less lethal. Think about wehat I just wrote.
The 'Pirola' Sub-Variant (clade (s)) BA.2.86 (as well as the BA.5 and XBB.1.5 and FL etc.) of COVID virus has emerged due to the sub-optimal vaccine induced antibodies (Abs) that do not neutralize the virus and thus cannot help get to population HERD immunity given it does not cut the chain of transmission (it does not stop transmission). To get to HERD immunity or tame an epidemic or pandemic, you MUST cut the chain of transmission. There is no other way! The COVID vaccines all failed in stopping transmission and thus how could they even be mandated? Another discussion we will have.
The vaccine induced antibodies (from day one when the COVID vaccine was rolled out February 2020 or so) make life difficult for the virus but does not eliminate or sterilize or neutralize it and rather places it under Darwinian natural selective pressure. The virus selects the variants from amongst itself (existing circulating variants and note, it is you who generate the variants) that are ‘fittest’ and hardiest (that confers a fitness advantage) and capable of overcomming (going around) the sub-optimal immune pressure (the mounting population vaccinal immunity that is wobbly and hobbled as it never gets to what we call ‘full affinity’ or maximal binding affinity for the epitopes or binding sites on the target antigen aka the spike protein e.g. receptor binding domain, N-terminal domain etc.) and thus there is viral immune escape, original antigenic sin (immune priming, fixation etc.), antibody-dependent enhancement of infection and disease (ADEI, ADED).
In short, a cluster ph*ck of an immunological response (whereby we disregarded the evolutionary capacity of the virus to adapt and evolve to the sub-optimal vaccine induced immunity and the selective pressure it places on the virus, we disregarded the delicate symbiotic ‘‘feedback” dance between virus (infectious pressure from circulating virus) and population immune response aka immune pressure back onto the virus)) whereby the mRNA technology gene based injection (Pfizer, Moderna, BioNTech) will continue to drive sub-optimal immune pressure and thus selective pressure and thus emergence of sub-variants for 100 more years if we do not stop this fraud vaccine. We did not understand that ‘ANY’ pressure we place on the virus that is non-lethal, will cause it to respond, from lockdowns, school closures, shielding, the failed non-sterilizing vaccine etc. Unless the response is lethal force or presusre, then the virus will evolve, culling forward the strongest variants among itself, removing the weakest. Natural selection in the classic sense. Remember, a virus seeks one thing, to survive, and it is really a clump of genetic RNA material and it seeks to survive and seeks a stable non-lethal relationship with the host, the ‘host’ being you.
The fear we have e.g. Geert Vanden Bossche, B Bridle, myself (P Alexander), P McCullough, R Oskoui, D George, W Makis, R Hodkinson, N Wolf, M Trozzi, M McDowell, R Cole etc.) is the potential emergence of a more virulent sub-variant. COVID vaccine skeptics from across the world, from US, to South Asia, to the Caribbean are asking serious educated questions given the vaccine failures and harms they have seen and know about.
To date we are dealing ONLY with more infectious ones (sub-variants) as we would expect to emerge once you apply non-lethal force (non-lethal selective pressure) on a virus with an ‘imperfect’ and ‘leaky’ vaccine that lacks full affinity for the target antigen.
Sterilizing immunity is the aim of natural immunity and should be for vaccine immunity and it is immunity that results in stoppage of infection, viral replication, or transmission. If a vaccine fails to do this, to ‘sterilize’ the virus, then it is failed, as the COVID vaccine is and was.
How can a sub-optimal vaccine and its subverted non-lethal immune pressure compare to the full and robust sterilizing immunity conferred by natural exposure immunity, aka natural immunity using the dual force of first line innate immune response plus acquired adaptive 2nd line response to mop up the 1st line (innate antibodies, natural killer cells, B-cell antibodies, CDC4+ and CDC8+ helper and killer lymphocytes etc.). You know this as antibodies and T-cells. How? Remember, natural immunity results in an immunological response e.g. induced antibodies, to all the surface proteins on the virus, making it less likely that the future virus can evade the immunity.
You were lied to that this COVID vaccine could provide anywhere near the sterilizing potent, near complete immunity that natural immunity could (natural immunity hits all the targets and proteins on the viral ball and all attachments, the complete viral ball surface, even the internal nucleocapsid protein etc. taking multiple immunological photos so to speak that the ‘one target’ vaccine immunity CANNOT) and we must punish the liars who did this, starting in our government agenices and our medical doctors.
Point I am making too (I remain a disciple of GVB) is that if you were exposed to COVID via an earlier variant and recovered, you then have robust natural immunity that will deal with and handle any new sub-variants. No doubt, as we saw with Omicron that accumulated multiple mutations on the spike, there could be immune evasion and escape as the new sub-variant could be sufficiently different so that it presents an immune rechallenge. Yet Natural immunity is robust enough to recognize enough of the virus (new ones, glycosilated etc.) that it could handle it and dispatch it e.g. your innate and acquired adaptive ‘memory’ immunity. You may have very brief mild symptoms, a few hours or maybe longer, but mild and you may have zero symptoms if exposed again due to the potency of your innate immune system (1st line), via innate antibodies and natural killer (NK) cells. New sub-variants will not typically completly evade natural immunity.
But it is reasonable to understand that if a new sub-variant in the future is sufficiently different, it can cause mild illness. But mild. It is especially promising and adaptive once you live an open life exposed to the environment whereby your immune system (especially that of children as their innate immune system (innate antibodies and natural killer cells is trained once maternal antibodies wanes) is taxed and tuned up daily. You must be exposed to the environment naturally and harmlessly daily. To lock down and constrain children especially and with masks is catastrophic on their developing innate immune system that could be weakened and they would be unable to develop a proper immune system and will be repeatedly sick, and as such prone to auto-immune disorders.
Persons with natural immunity will always do way better if re-exposed than those relying on vaccine-induced immunity.
The recent bi-valent booster that was based on the BA.4 and BA.5 sub-variant clades and the legacy Wuhan, failed catastrophically. Stunningly, FDA approved an EUA based on a rodent study with 8 mice. The BA.4/BA.5 booster failed. They are (Pfizer, Moderna etc.) now bringing an XBB.1.5. booster in the Fall of 2023 when the predominant clades will be EG.5 or BA.2.86 or others. The Fall XBB booster will also fail, devastatingly, driving immune escape and original antigenic sin, with vaccinated persons at risk for repeat infections and severe illness. They will serve as foci of ongoing infection and transmission. Consequently, the new XBB booster will drive more sub-variants and the continuation of the non-pandemic. The XBB vaccine is a clear mismatch to the dominant sub-variant. Our fear is that a lethal humanity altering sub-variant could emerge that could kill millions. The vaccine makers cannot say I do not know what I am talking about, as they know I am over the target here. It is they who have been unable to prove effectiveness and safety of these fraud COVID vaccines.
The mRNA technology that the mRNA gene based vaccines are powered by is so very flawed, does not work, and is deadly. Between the mRNA technology, the lipid-nano particle delivery domain platform, the spike protein and sub-units fragments, the induced antibodies post vaccine, all are showing to be devastating and worthless. All involved must be investigated.
Sadly, very very sadly, there are many people still eagerly accepting this insanity.
We are estranged from many of our family because we are not obeying the guidance of experts.
F them.
My son in law called me "sick" bc I refuse to engage in this hysteria.
Well, because of that, we are also for the past 18+ months unable to see, visit, speak to, call or have a relationship with them or their 3 adorable kiddos.
We are living in shitty times
BA.1 was the original Omicron variant. Probably 1/2 of Americans had a past Omicron infection so we have robust antibodies. Better yet if never took any Jabs to damage immune system.
I have zero concern about any Omicron derived virus. I probably wouldn't even know if I was sick , but might develop even stronger antibodies.
Bring it on. I have no worry. I still have every method of treatment available including Povidone-Iodine mouthwash, but don't think they are needed. Everyone should keep some Mucinex DM around, if excessive coughing or phlegm
