SARS-nCov-1 was a typo. I fixed it to 2.

Hmmm yes Omicron is an interesting development. Apparently there is also already another 'edition' HVU (HMU?) or somesuch.

Wether taking another (identical) shot to the first 3 will stave off omicron, depends on if it's even worth bothering with, that is, what data is there on the virulence and of that, resulting in a high IFR/CFR of omicron?

It's already been stated in the mainstream that omicron appears to have very low pathogenicity - referring to the proportion of alleged infected people - determined apparently by the PCR test or other methods being "positive" - who then develop clinical symptoms of the disease, of whatever severity.

Because a "positive" test apparently now is a "Case" irrespectivley as to if that person even 'feels' ill or not.

We are already in the 1.25% IFR rate, (Derived from data from previous versions, the Indian/Delta one being allegedly more virulent) and mostly elderly with comorbidities die with it, so if anyone who proposes the jab method, I posit we should be offering jabs to the alleged most vulnerable- that is, persons above 70/75.

And if they refuse it, let it be.

If it turns out that the virulence of omicron is even lower, to get us a lower IFR than 1.25% then that is surely good news, no? So far, it appears that omicron has very low virulence, that is, persons with clinical disease who become severely ill or die, as a sole cause, with no comorbidities.

I could not find any obvious internet search references to anyone worldwide dying entirely from omicron, however 1 person in the UK has died with it. (as of As of 13th dec 2021) I could not on superficial digging find the age & comorbidities of that person. If anyone has any data on deaths purely of people dying from omicron as the only cause with zero comorbidities, <70, worldwide, that would be great.

Now that you mentioned SARS1, that raises the Q about why a vaccine never came to market for that one, odd considering its 11% CFR. I do recall in the media at the time a big fuss was made about SARS1 at the time. But yet, one was developed for it's cousin, SARS2, even though the pathogenicity of the virus is a fraction of 1.

Ultimately, Canada is nearing 90% jabbed, higher if we exclude those who have already got natural innoculation & immunity by previously getting & recovering from the China variant/Alpha, the Oxford/Beta, Indian/delta, or South African/Omicron etc, under 10yrs, persons away from Canada for long streches, citizens who are ex pats etc).

The situation is as good as it's going to get.
