Global Alarm As New Covid Variant Is Found in Southern Africa

[redraiderrider]

Wait, but I thought travel bans were racist? Why is it OK when the Brandon admin does it??

[jasonrod]

Alarming that MSNBC is still a network.

[bizzjoe]

More lies and the sheep keep falling for it

[jgetscensored]

Global alarm? I don’t think anyone outside the few thousand msnbc viewers is “alarmed”

[Freyja_M]

Was that Jack Black pretending to be a Dr.?

[PuffOfSmoke]

This is not surprising as virus do mutate and poor countries are the last ones to get vaccines shipped like countries in Africa where the jab rate is really low.

As a European biologist I have once in a while tried to answer comments with serious questions, but I get tired of fishing them out among the flood of spewed nonsense under every news or factual video.
Something must be seriously wrong with the self-esteem of many Americans (so they try to make themselves important by yelling out meaningless slogans or catchwords), and the education system in the States must be deeply flawed as well.

oh boy! I better buy toilet paper today

[emmdeecastro]

We got our booster shots and continue to mask up in public and crowded indoor spaces

[ivanmcbleedy]

This new variant will find safe harbor here in America among the unvaccinated.

[joeproll]

How come the FBI isn’t investigating Anthony Fauci?

[JB-uvhm]

Gone by spring - so sayeth the one term chump.

[imrael]

"Two weeks to flatten the curve"

[camerona]

Lol it just happens to be the most westernized country in Africa

[Alfarojv]

We have nothing to hide...
Which is why we're displaying
The likes and removing the dislikes. Sounds legit.

[biancahardin]

Im so sick of cnn, msnbc etc . Spreading lies and not telling the whole story !

[CovidFart]

How convenient for YouTube to disable the dislike button right before the "New Variant"

[guibox]

Countries need to start screening international fliers or limit them. It annoys me that the people have been put on restriction while flights are allowed to come in en masse. It won't spread if this is curbed and controlled and it hasn't been with every new strain. Stop punishing the people while allowing it to come into the country without proper precautions.

[oneshotorgan]

Why does this BS have more likes?! Can't you see they're trying to drag this thing out forever?! Wake up!

[ltdc]

And then another, and then another, and then another....control, control, control
