Now then, let's all open our eyes and think about this with pure logic for one moment. If it is so clear that Omicron is going to explode, why close AFTER new year and not now? When you wake up and realise this is all a sham, you will see it is very simple that they will let you all out to play for Christmas and New Year, let you have some fun, then say, that's it, home time....no more now for another 6 months because that dastardly deadly virus is back. You know the one, the one that has seen masses of people taken from their homes dead, seen all the homeless die, and effected oh dso many under 70 years of age with no underlying issues.
