Living in Belgium, we usually do what the French or the Dutch does so looks like we may follow suit here.

Omicrom must really be serious if it can be spread by foreworks. :o

Omicron produces head cold-like symptoms, but appears to make government bureaucrats go frothing-at-the-mouth mad.

It’s outside for one thing....and there’s plenty of room to spread out. Just plain stupid....It’s not about the fireworks...it’s about salooning before and after.

“Wait till Tuesday and Biden will be encouraging shutting things down.”
and laying all the blame on the evil unvaccinated.
To: alternatives?
Biden said before he wouldn’t close things down but his word means nothing.

This just in, common cold kills.
Kills rationality, that is.
Where is the rationality here? One would think they just want an endless emergency. Nah, who would want that?
To: ChicagoConservative27
I don’t know. Take away their pyrotechnics, and Parisonians might start burning cathedrals.

Violence by muslim terrorists is more of a threat to Paris than the virus.

Just where are the tests coming from that differentiate the Omicron variant?
What is the sample size, location, frequency of these differentiating tests?
It ain't the PCR!

The real reason they cancelled the fireworks is that as soon as they started to shoot them off, the French would try to surrender.
