Here’s how Karl Denninger begins the day:

Fair enough.
What KD then produces is a pretty comprehensive and succinct account of Ominous Omicron as well as the epidemiology of the Covid injections and Covid spread. It’s lengthy but well worth your time. It’s too long to summarize, but to whet your appetite for the long read, here are five points that KD makes re Ominous Omicron:
This "variant" has been found all over the world already. Therefore its already everywhere. Locking down travel after it is already in your nation is stupid and does nothing. The variant is either going to become dominant or it will not. ...
This "variant" has no evidence of being more-deadly; it may in fact be less-so. Indeed that is the natural mutational pattern coronaviruses follow over time. …
The vaccines clearly do not work. International travel has been vaccinated-only everywhere for quite some time. So the person(s) who brought the virus into your nation with this "variant" were vaccinated. …
Lockdowns and constraints clearly do not work either. The virus mutated because that's what viruses do, and specifically coronaviruses do this all the time. It's common. Further, vaccinating into an outbreak promotes vaccine-resistant strains because that's just how natural selection works. ...
Meanwhile [] the evidence continues to mount that prior infection confers better resistance than vaccines. Perfect immunity? No. But much better immunity and, to three nines, perfect protection against critical illness and death.
From there it’s off to the races, as KD provides a readable overview of everything sensible, expert people have been saying about vaccines and coronaviruses and Fauci for the past two years or so.
