  Omicron and delta are coming to your party New Year's Eve souvenirs for sale in Times Square. Leaders and public health experts across the country are urging Americans to scrap their New Year's Eve plans and stay home for the second year in a row as new cases of the coronavirus spread at a record-setting pace. The volley of warnings serves as yet another reminder that the pandemic is far from over, with the omicron variant spurring a familiar pattern of cautions and cancellations during a time when many hoped to reclaim a sense of normalcy. But instead of partying like it's 2019, officials are asking people to reconsider gatherings and other revelry to fight rising case counts, which on Tuesday hit an all-time high when the seven-day average of new infections topped 266,000. "Omicron and delta are coming to your party," Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, D, said at a news conference this week. "So you need to think twice about how many people will be gathered tog

  Omicron is spreading 'every place at once,' experts say.  The COVID-19 omicron variant. CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — The  omicron  variant of COVID-19 is moving faster than surveillance systems can track it and has so unnerved some medical experts they're starting to put the brakes on preparations for their holiday gatherings. "Personally, I'm reevaluating plans for the holidays," Bronwyn MacInnis, director of pathogen genomic surveillance at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard University, said on a call with reporters Tuesday. "It's the responsible thing to do and what feels right given the risk." She and a handful of other Massachusetts-based researchers on the call said they've been stunned by the pace by which omicron has been crowding out other variants and taking over the pandemic. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that about 3% of current COVID-19 cases in the U.S. are omicron. But MacInnis said she thinks that number w

 J&J, China’s Sinopharm and Russia’s Sputnik V had no neutralizing activity Another setback for J&J. A study showed COVID-19 vaccines from Johnson & Johnson as well as China’s Sinopharm and Russia’s Sputnik V had no neutralizing activity against the Omicron variant. By contrast, the study done by the University of Washington, a unit of Vir Biotechnology and others also found that shots from Moderna, Astrazeneca and Pfizer-BioNTech, retained activity against the latest variant. But the antibody response was much less than with the original strain. The study has not yet been peer reviewed. It has been a challenging time for J&J. The news comes just one day after the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended Americans get Moderna’s or Pfizer/BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccines over J&J’s due to a rare but sometimes fatal cases of blood-clotting. What’s more, its vaccine has the lowest uptake in the U.S. Earlier this year, Johnson & Johnson encountered qu

  COVID forces NFL into lockdown, testing changes are being made  After rounds of intense discussion and negotiation between the NFL and the NFL Players Association, an agreement has been reached to revamp parts of the COVID-19 testing thresholds and get players back onto the field more quickly.  Before that measure kicks in, the NFL has entered all franchises into the enhanced COVID protocols through the end of this week’s games in response to a  massive spate of positive tests this week . That means through the end of this week’s games, franchises will revert back to last season’s most stringent guidelines, which were set in place prior to COVID vaccines being available. In-person meetings will be prohibited unless they occur outside or in a socially distanced practice bubble; there will be 100 percent masking inside facilities regardless of vaccination status; eating in groups inside the facility will be prohibited; weight rooms will be limited to a 15-person limit; and team travel

 Liz Cheney doing the job of Attorney General Merrick Garland If Attorney General Merrick Garland was listening to Cheney’s remarks, now would be a good time to arrest and prosecute Trump for committing high crimes against the United States.  He betrayed his oath of office by inciting the violence and gleefully sat back and watched for three hours to see if his scheme to keep power would succeed before finally relenting to calls for the National Guard to rescue American democracy.  There is no excuse for not prosecuting Trump and his minions. If Garland won’t do it, he should resign immediately in favor of someone with a spine. Documents released to the House January 6th Committee by former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows reveal that Donald Trump was well aware of the attack on the Capitol as it unfolded, which is why Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyoming) blasted Trump for doing nothing. These communications are damning to Trump, which is why Cheney ripped him a new one on Monday and rea

Chris Christie got back his 'Boner' and fired a fresh salvo at Trump. Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie speaks with former President Donald Trump at a White House event on October 26, 2017.

Appeals court rules against Trump in fight over Jan. 6 committee documents request Appeals court rules against Trump in fight over Jan. 6 committee documents request W ASHINGTON — A federal appeals court ruled Thursday that former President Donald Trump cannot prevent the House Jan. 6 committee from getting hundreds of documents that were created when he was in the White House. A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia ruled that although Trump retained some authority to claim executive privilege, it was not strong enough to overcome President Joe Biden's decision that Congress has a legitimate need for the material.
