The “Water Cooler” is a feature on Claycord.com where we ask you a question or provide a topic, and you talk about it.
The “Water Cooler” will be up Monday-Friday in the noon hour.
QUESTION: Does the new COVID variant (Omicron) worry you?
Talk about it….
As a wise man once said,,,”What, me worry?”
No. The reason people are panicking is because the media sells fear to get ratings. There’s no factual evidence.
No. fire fauci.
Yes. I’ve only had the first 16 booster shots, so I’m still vulnerable. I’ve been afraid to come out from under my bed since I heard about it.
Sounds like a Democrat for sure!
Chicken Little either click on my name or do a search for “Progressive Couple Thrilled With Latest Mandates” by the Babylon Bee.
You’ll get a kick out of it.
@Janus,
That was great. Thanks! I love the Babylon Bee.
I thought you might like it!
Not at all because I got all my vaccine + booster shot. Sure I could still get covid but I know that my chance of survival is high. of course I could give covid to people who vaccinated and otherwise but I know they have chances to survive; some just have more chance of survival than others so make your choices according to your god given rights.
This is how everyone should think. Vax or no vax. Everybody has choices.
Paul~ Agree
Sam~ +1
No…more worried about having to be fully vaccinated to continue working with my employer. Federal Government Contractors…three states just put that on hold but I don’t think California ever will.
It’s for all 50 states. All mandates will are unconstitutional as democrats are finding out.
Sam~That is for private firms. Federal Government is not the same.

@ Simonpure~
Oh Darn!
Crossing my fingers, you will not have to choose or worry about it.
If I may ask…what is your job?
Hubby & I are not vaccinated, so for his job, he does the at home Covid test once a week…always negative so far. If it changes to be required to vaccinate, he is ready to step away from the job. He is also contracted out, working as a designer at a Refinery.
Hi Roz~They already mandated it. Just holding out as long a I can. I am a manufacturing equipment engineer working for a federal government contract business. Been here over 30 years. I cant just walk away as I still have a mortgage payment to make and I cant sell and move because I need to be with my babies. They keep me moving forward with a positive outlook. Thanks for the wishes my friend 🙂
@Simonpure~
Wow!, 30 years and a bit more to go. Think You & Missy are a bit younger than us too. Can’t leave those Grandkids for sure, 🙂
I have an Aunt that is blessed now with 5 Great Grandkids and another on the way. They are all so cute!
It worries me because it’s another opportunity for politicians to use it to their advantage to push their agenda. Mail in voting, shutdowns, never ending vaccine requirements and anything else they can think of that will keep them in power and the rest of us under control. Sorry, not falling for it this time around.

They will do anything to distract you from what’s really going on.
NO
I’m not very worried about Omicron . I am worried about the people who think covid is a hoax. There are almost 800,000 Americans that have died from covid and over 5 million people world wide that have died from covid. I hope the count doesn’t go much higher. Maybe just think about getting the vaccine to save your life, family member or a friends life.
@ Bill~
Yes, some think Covid is a hoax…but we know it’s real and just need to be aware and safe.
The real hoax is the politics and how government is working it.
Ha! what BS, “800K *from* covid”…no, it’s 95% that have died *WITH* the China virus, with an average of 4.0 comorbidities. Go get your 8th booster, wear 5 masks, only 36 months to flatten the curve.
There is a new variant? LOL
Hmm . Since I was not worried about the other 99 variants, I will not worry about this one either.
I will worry about how the Politicians and the Media will use this to their advantage to drive more fear and division amongst the masses. I am wondering when they will instruct to have a tatoo to indicate the most recent booster shot date.
And yes, I know SF just announced they have their first case. O so scary! LOL
No and nether did the first one and all in between and any future ones.
Nope.
I’m terrified!!!! Not scared of the new variant.
I’m scared of what my Government is going to do to me,
my church,
my freedoms,
my income,
my health care,
my leisure time,
my family gatherings,
my children,
my ability to travel,
my household budget
All in the name of a new variant!!
Ken-Out!
my ability to shop,
my schools,
my hospitals,
my internet access,
my hobbies,
Sorry about the typo, list was longer then expected…
+14 and counting…
I’m not worried about it.
They don’t want this to end because once the dust settles there’s going to be heads that need to roll for all the trauma they have caused the last couple years and they know it. So they’ll keep doing whatever they can to keep the pressure on us so we can’t put pressure on them.
Their games need to stop. Now.
They don’t even have the ability to test for any variants. Wake up. This came out in time for the Ghislaine Maxwell trial As a distraction. Omicron is an anagram for moronic. They’re not even hiding it anymore.
Also in time to cover up the Jussie Smollett trial. News has to focus on covid – again. Not much coverage of the staged racial/homophobic attack on poor Jussie. Remember? The “attack” that Kamala called a “modern day lynching”. Oops, wrong again Kamala.
I’m terrified beyond the capacity for rational thought.
Do you collect spores, molds, and fungus?
As Bobby McFerrin sings, “Don’t worry, be happy!” Omicron will soon pass…
This will bring a smile to your face (even Robin Williams is jovial here):

Haven’t been worried for over a year and a half, so why start now?
Not at all. (What happened to THE FLU???)
If people want to cower-in-place ~ Nobody is stopping them. But don’t stop the world over 99.7%
BTW, Australia has a man hunt for Escapees from the Covid concentration camp.
Our Union secured a Lawyer to fight this overreach. The response from Union members was overwhelming and a resounding NO regarding the Unlawful mandate.
I am more worried about the Armitron and Decepticon variants.
It may sound strange, but I have never been afraid of the Wuhan Virus. I have been afraid of the Corona-Maniacs, the ones who try to run you over when you are in a parking lot. The ones who wear a mask in their own car. The ones so afraid of death that they will harm anyone just because they think it might make them a little safer.
BTW- There are still Free States where you can walk, shop, worship, dine, etc… without a mask. We have done all of the above since Easter with no ill effect.
No. Just like I haven’t been worried since March 2020 about a virus with a 99.74% survival rate.
.
Concur.

The only thing I fear is another lockdown. Another lockdown would be the nail in the coffin to our state’s economy.
Sure, police, firemen and other govt. employees would get paid, but small business would be destroyed.
I don’t think Newsom has the guts to do it again, but I’m sure our public health leaders would love to exercise that power again.
Reports I’m aware of, there is single case in CA.
Am waiting for problem or side effect disclosure like we get when drugs are advertised on TV. Don’t think that is too much to ask.
It sounds like it may be milder. If that is the case, and it is more infectious, perhaps it will push out the more dangerous strains.
That’s a big NO. I’m more worrIed when I’m on Hwy 4. Life life and stop listening to the media.
I worry more about the people who fell for the vaccins scam and have an uncertain future that lies ahead “(
I heard some lady on the radio say today that now that one person has been found to have the moronic version that
“the flood gates are now open”
Let’s all panic.
Again.
First, they have no way to test for either variant.
So how would anyone know?
I’ve never been worried about getting this man-made catastrophe.
So why start now?
I dunno Cellophane, the moronic version might be the real deal.
Baaaaaah.
The masks, the distancing, the booster shots, the vax cards, on & on it goes….
It all feels like obedience training to me & I’m sick of it.
@Dr Jellyfinger….At this point I’m taking my cat’s attitude towards most everything, you ever try to train a cat to do something useful?
That sounds right to me…. let’s have some cattitude.
@ nytemuvr~
Some cats can be trained…..but to do something useful, you’re right, not so much.
Liked your Post 🙂
@Roz….My cats are “trained” in as such whenever I open a can of Friskies Pate for them a weekly treat they can hear that sound from the far reaches of the property. Don’t be standing in front of the cat door or you’ll get bowled over….and yet they can be sitting across the room and they don’t even look at you when you call them. If there’s another life after this one let me come back as an old lady’s house cat.
HA!
The first COVID vaccine didn’t do what they said it would, so they insisted on a second one. That didn’t do what they said it would, so they recommended a booster. Doesn’t look like that works either. “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.” Looks like Fauci is quite accomplished at insanity.
No, I’m generally not scared of lies.
As a few have posted, I am more concerned about the government (over) ruling the (legal) citizens than I am the actual virus. The variant is said to be less virulent, but, the media have zero credibility, and the nation should no longer heed the words of an 80 year old, 40 year bureaucrat who deliberately misleads. No, the new variant (and all the other mutations yet to come) in and of itself does not worry me.
I would be more worried about the, “Prog”, “Woke” and “Marx” variants of the virus.
Not in the least.
I have come to realize, any mention of Covid, Covidmutant or flu is just that. The flu. The vaxx, the booster, it’s all a variant to keep us frightened and hostage.
Yes, the flu is real. Yes, people die of the flu. Yes, it is probably a bioweapon, if only because of how it is used. No doubt Fauci, Xi, Soros, Gates all of them that propose to profit off of Pharma. Shame. And shame on you that help push this New World Order.
