The new "heavily mutated" South African variant of the virus is being called the "omicron variant" (we're fast approaching the "Omega Strain", aren't we?) here in the US. BidenHarris has decreed travel from South Africa and 5 more countries surrounding it is to be closed starting Monday. "Why wait until Monday?", one might ask - clearly, it is to ensure that we get a good stout dose of the virus variant here before the travel ban takes effect.
Never mind the fact that when Trump banned travel to and from China when this thing started... in China... it was deemed "racist" back then, but apparently re-deemed as "good" now. Maybe this time it's not "racist" because travel is being banned from majority Black nations? I dunno.
I don't think he is closing travel to and from Hong Kong, however, where this variant is also alive and well. Go figure.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
