The governor of New York on Friday declared a state of emergency as COVID transmission reached rates not seen since April 2020, and warned that the troubling new variant of COVID which first emerged in Botswana is 'coming'.
Earlier on Friday, the US banned flights from eight Southern African countries to try and prevent the mutant strain, Omicron, from arriving.
Kathy Hochul, the governor, said that all non-urgent procedures could be postponed, beginning December 3, if the hospital's capacity falls dangerously low.

She also issued a 'declaration of disaster emergency', noting that COVID transmission is at a level not seen since April 2020. The declaration unlocks sweeping powers for her to take emergency measures, without the usual congressional approval.
'We continue to see warning signs of spikes in COVID this winter, and while the new Omicron variant has yet to be detected in New York State, it's coming,' Hochul tweeted.

Be a shame if she got run down by an autonomous SUV.
The sky is falling - again 🤪
Stank ass Dem…
Yepp ... out of nowhere ... time to get Joe some help ... my theory is that this to resuscitate Xiden’s unconstitutional vax mandate with “outside” pressure. Put the fear into the S Ct. This will flip Roberts for sure. Should soften up ACB and Kavanaugh enough to maybe help push them over the edge?
Gov. Kathy Hochul signed an executive order Friday to postpone elective hospital surgeries.
How would this B$tch define elective surgeries as noted below, as necessary or don’t do them?
Cardiac stents to be implanted? Cardiac pace makers to be implanted?
Cancer operations to remove cancers from patients’ brains, breasts, uteruses, prostrates or testicles or where ever?
Knee or hip replacements to replace knees or hips wearing out, due to arthritis and old age?
Replacement of shoulders damaged due to accidents or arthritis?
Carpal Tunnel surgery to enable one to work again?
Toe removal,foot surgery or hand surgery to enable a patient to walk, stand or work without pain
Would she and unknown doctors and non doctors form committees to decide what surgeries will be done or not done?
These governments will never let go . People are not afraid of COVID but what these crazy governments will do to them
It came without mandates
It came without nags
It came without fear porn, hoaxes or jabs
Methinks this is all about the Ghislaine Maxwell trial.
They deserve the government they get in the state of New York.
If it takes killing hundreds to save just one it’s worth it!
(and it serves their cause very well)
Early last summer I predicted that a new Corona “variant” would appear around Thanksgiving, prompting a new surge of restrictions, lockdowns, etc., and inevitably another “vaccine”.
The reason for the timing was twofold, at least in the USA. First of all, the new restrictions needed to be postponed until after the gubernatorial and municipal elections, because widespread discontent created by the new anti-COVID measures would disadvantage incumbents in Democrat-held cities.
The second — and more important — reason is that there was a lull in Corona infections over the summer, bit a surge was to be expected in the late fall, just as there was with the seasonal flu before the flu disappeared, as people move indoors for the winter months. Under those circumstances, the increasing number of cases, accompanied by the alarming graphs with rising red lines, can be employed to present gullible viewers with evidence that the dreaded Corona is raging through the population again. Contagion hysteria can be whipped up to accompany the rollout of the new mutation, so that when the new “vaccine” becomes available, people will beg to be jabbed with it.
She’s going to “kill herself” before Covid is done with.
She is stuck on stupid.
Isn’t Joke™️ a racist then for stopping flights from Africa? I remember the left calling Trump a xenophobe for shutting down flights from Asia. Where’s the outrage now?
I’ve lived in NY all my life. My family goes back in NY for well over 200 years.
I have never voted for or supported a Democrat.
Tell me again, jackass, that I deserve this.
