Not from Omicron. From delta and the previous variants, which are somewhere around 5x as deadly as the flu.
But how does Omicron compare to the common cold?


Certainly more deadly than the common cold, and relatively more deadly than the average flu. Although, Covid is interesting in that it can't really be compared 1:1 in terms infection -> death, because there's also the additional challenge that when Covid pushes hospitals at or beyond capacity it results in collateral deaths.

Edit: Your post was about Omricon specifically, but my response is about Covid at-large.

just FYI DNA barcodes are too stable to destroy with sunlight/temp changes. We routinely bring them to 99C in the lab to amplify them.


that is correct, which is why i use an eclectic process involving sunlight, garlic smoke(fire), salt, hydrogen then acids, and in winter time brief freezing.
I tested the GMO mold with full days sunlight exposure & the fruit molded to death with the chalky white spores only becoming reduced when there was no more fruit to feed on.

This is also why i now cut off skins in general, wash the knife in hydrochloric acid and try to avoid peel fruit in general because it's very bad mildew. lemons and limes being the worst which are also most beneficial in vitamin C, and oranges being the least volatile however the pulp often being fairly compromised with white spores. I believe the principalities refer to them symbolically as "basket balls".

Very reasonable. You could also just use high-power UV which breaks apart the DNA at a molecular level if you want to skip all those steps.

sulfur opens it up, smoke opens & dries, salt infused acids, but despite all this it's still a never ending fight to eat clean at meal time.
the number of people who shave oranges for cakes, or soak peels in ice cold beverage is cringe. nasty gut wrenching stuff. And if you cut right into it you just transfer that crap inside the fruit.

Most people are forever pounding tums not knowing these causes ^^

But, unless you buy bulk or treat it all at once on a decent day (as i mentioned), it's literally suffering for natural food every meal time.
gone are the days were you could squeeze fresh citrus into water for a quick energy tonic or to offset a greasy meal, they caught on to my alkalizing methods unfortunately ^^

That's why i do dandelion tea and lemon buds now. I suspect it's in the tap now from washing fruit - killing plants, enabling bugs, havocing bladder health, etc.

Yeah, that's the point, Omicron not Covid.
We know previous variants were something like 5x deadlier than the seasonal flu
Current data indicates Omicron may be less deadly than the seasonal cold, on a per-case basis at least.

We don't have hard numbers on how fast colds spread, not like the testing for covid, but its hard to imagine most colds being as incredibly infectious as omicron has been in NYC- and yet no apparent uptick in deaths. If anything, deaths in the hardest hit omicron areas are down. Which is to be expected in the aftermath of the deadly phase of covid passing, since death rates would drop below normal in the next few years since covid is almost entirely killing people already close to death, leaving a more healthy population on average. But even if omicron was only as deadly as the common cold, or the common cold spread as fast as omicron is now, we'd expect more deaths. The common cold isn't non-lethal after all, it can kill the severely immunocompromised or elderly. And the deaths 'with omicron' being reported right now- causality not easy to quantify- are over 75% people with at least four comorbidities. It, the most close to death people possible, which indicates omicron may have nothing to do with them dying

So how deadly is Omicron, actually?

Sorry for trying to convince our resident crazy person to stop washing his food with poison and use an equally efficient but less toxic method.

It's fun watching you try, keep going!
garlic = allicin /natural
salt = nontoxic
fire = organic/nature
grapefruit acid= organic natural
hydrogen = oral debriding agent (topical).

I was amused at your silly ploy to convince me that artificial light kills artificial germs when it actually makes them stronger.
it's the same silly ploy they use for radiation & cancer.
See if you had a high IQ like me you'd know that radiation diffuses cancer, which is why patients suffer from skin cancer years later after chemo.
You're not killing them, you're dispersing them in a less concentrated mass.
