In just 48 hrs everything just went upside down. Looking at all the updates and social media posts, a colleague from my legal fraternity outlined the absurd response from the countries. Read On 😀

SA: It's true what they say - no good deed goes unpunished. The next time we won't tell you guys about the next mutations or variants we find.
World: Sorry, can't hear you. Too busy dealing with the outbreak you caused. How about we talk about this later?

I don't get what the brouhaha is about
As you've mentioned previously, the school is very clear about it's ethos and what it does (it's not a surprise for students or parents)
You've been around for a while (so there's history, former students)
And no one is forced to join
Kind folks of Twitter, I need help in solving a personal issue ie lifting my sister

SA: But we just identified it & showed you how to check for this variant. It didn't originate here. We have advanced labs because we do research on AIDS, TB & other communicable diseases.
UK: Thanks for the research. However, a complete travel ban on you & your 5 neighbors.

Hello Aaditya, this is great
Also, what would help is a dedicated telephone helpline where people can get medical advice, consultation + self-care home kits. Most don't fall seriously ill but panic, end up occupying doctor / hospital resources
Wonder how long it'll take

She was a lovely person, very accomplished, talented, multi-faceted (sang beautifully, for example)
Hope she's happy, at peace, wherever she is

Netherlands: We heard UK banned flights to you because you have the new variant, and so we are also imposing a ban on you and your neighbors!
Namibia: Hey! What did we do? We have less than 20 new cases a day since a month now!
EU: Guys, we have a situation in our hands.
SA: No no, we just found a way to 'identify' it. It seems, it has already been detected in HongKong, Israel & Botswana.
UK: Hey guys, no offence, but we already have 45,000 cases a day, we don't wear masks everywhere, allow large gatherings. But we can't risk a new variant.

Namibia: The situation where Germany has 76,000 cases a day & other countries are breaking daily records?
EU: No, not that situation.
Lesotho: Is it that UK still has 40,000+ cases a day, and doesnt have it under control?
EU: No, UK isn't a part of us anymore,

China: Don't you dare! Leave us and our president out of it. Call it something else. And we don't allow anyone in anyway. So the variant is not our concern.
WHO: We got it boss. It's now called Omicron.
WHO: Sorry, we meant Sir. You are not our boss.

Ashwin was apparently mentioning that in his interview, when the Aussie govt, just before the cricketers flew over, did a U turn and said no spouses, family.
He told his wife 'they've changed their mind, no spouses'
And his wife said 'Can I look for a new husband?'
EU : As some of you are next to them, we are closing travel to the region with immediate effect!
SA: Dude, we just identified it! We only have a few cases in the region. Esp compared to what you guys have. What’s with the knee-jerk reaction?
South Africa: Hey guys, look what we discovered in our labs while researching Covid19 variants and mutations
World: What??
SA: It's a new variant of Covid19 - seems to be different than others. Let’s work together & study further.
World: What? You have a new variant of Covid?!

I saw who it was by and skipped it. Cannot understand why, how anyone pays any attention to her when all she does is take a deliberately contrarian view, just so that she gets publicity (and invited to TV panels)
World: Nope. We need to run tests first and figure out what this virus can do and how effective the vaccination is against it.
WHO: Hey guys, a quick question. The next Greek alphabet is 'Xi'. What do we do? China? Are you here?
Malawi: We hear Poland has some serious rise in cases and hospitalisations.
EU: Really?! We have no idea. We must look into it. But not what we are talking about now.
Eswatini: What situation then?
EU: We heard that South Africa has a new variant.
Namibia: Knee-jerk - that's the word we were looking for.
UAE: We are closing flights to Southern Africa, we don't want to risk it. Sorry guys.
USA: We are looking into this and studying the variant. We won’t ban flights yet.
SA: Thank you USA. Finally a voice of reason!
@ShekharGupta
In the 3 years I worked in the industry, hated the awards shows the most. Exactly for the reasons you enunciated. Because fragile egos and muscle flexing came to the fore incl the hullabaloo about who sits where (madness)
Glad you wrote this and took names 🖖🙂
At Ibnii Resort in Coorg, food wasted by guests is weighed and billed to the guests at Rs 100 per 10 gm. The proceeds go to an NGO that feeds children at an orphanage.
Good news is that none of the guests are unhappy about this rule and waste bins have come down from 14 to 1.

Over a third of cops, in a country with amongst the lowest police to citizens ratio, are utilised for VIP duty
By all parties, all govts. Vanity, VIP culture is a great unifier amongst our politicians and bureaucrats
Mauritius: Sorry SA & the variant group, I saw other countries refer to you as that. We are friends and all, but for concern for our tourism & economy we will also ban you guys for now !
SA: We thought you were family. Goes to show how money is more imp !
@MarinaPurkiss
Well put
And the boats or illegal migrants won't stop
As someone pointed out, the small boat folks risk life to get here, cross one of the busiest water bodies in a dinghy, they're not going to be deterred by the prospect of a plane to Rwanda (or any other place)
A great step in the right direction for
