Omicron and the obsessive booster messaging shows that Nudge Unit driven coercion is focusing on the double jabbed. They have largely given up on the unjabbed, where the strategy is to marginalise, shame, and deny access, using vax passports.

Allow me to translate:

The double-jabbed but no "booster" are soon to become the "unvaxxed" too.

So if they die of covid, they will be added to the unvaxxed statistics.

As ever, racing rolls over and lets government tickle it's tummy. Good luck trying to check 20,000 people queueing to get into Kempton on Boxing Day with the first race at 12:15.

Below is the latest set of rules - this is an email I was sent as a member of the ROA:




As already confirmed, all attendees at fixtures in England where attendance is likely to exceed 4,000 will be asked on arrival for evidence of COVID status certification.

For the avoidance of doubt, this will apply to every individual aged 18 or over who intends to enter the racecourse at these meetings.

To enter the racecourse, every individual must:

    Be fully vaccinated (at least two doses)
    Or have completed a negative lateral flow or PCR test before attending, ideally within the previous 12 hours or at most within the previous 48 hours
    Or be exempt based on approved medical exemption or clinical trial participation

One of the above will always be required at these fixtures. Therefore, we are asking all Owners and attendees to prepare for the use of COVID status certification at all fixtures, as specific attendance numbers cannot always be known in advance.

Any person who does not have valid Covid status certification will be refused entry.

COVID Status certification – what you need to do

All attendees are advised to prepare to provide evidence of COVID status certification to enter the racecourse.

    The easiest way to share COVID-19 vaccination records or test results is through the NHS COVID Pass, which is available to download or can be requested as a letter, either online or by calling 119. International attendees if vaccinated in another country can show alternative proof of vaccination.
    If you cannot provide evidence of vaccination status, a negative lateral flow or PCR test will enable you to enter the racecourse. Rapid lateral flow tests can be ordered through the NHS website or collected from a pharmacy. You will need a code to collect your Lateral Flow test from a Pharmacy which can be obtained here. Proof of a negative lateral flow or PCR test can be shown using the NHS COVID Pass, or with a valid email or text from NHS Test and Trace. A photograph of a negative test will not be accepted, nor will the actual test.

More information about the NHS COVID Pass and how to provide proof of COVID status in England, Scotland and Wales is available here.

Face coverings again mandatory at all times in outdoor operational areas

Face coverings will be reintroduced in outdoor racing operational areas on British racecourses, including the parade and pre-parade rings, saddling and unsaddling areas, horse walks, racecourse stables, at the start and (for jockeys) it is advised they are worn during the race.

Every individual working in or entering these areas, including Weighing Room personnel, officials, trainers, owners, and guests, will again be required to wear a covering.

This precaution will help further protect business-critical personnel in those areas where close contact and mixing between Weighing Room staff and other attendees creates an additional risk of transmitting the virus.

In line with government guidance, face coverings will also be required in most indoor settings on course, unless food or drink is being consumed.

I don't pretend to understand either, but we all have a basic understanding that when a foreign body enters our system, for example a transplanted organ, the immune system will attack it. This is why, for example, transplant patients need to be immuno-suppressed.

Pretoria – Health Minister Joe Phaahla said on Friday that all nine provinces of South Africa are in the grip of the fourth wave of Covid-19, and the number of Covid-19 infections has now surpassed the peaks of the three previous waves.

“Today is traditionally the last working day for many industries in South Africa as we head towards the Christmas and New Year period. This is the second festive season we go into, in the middle of a Covid-19 wave. Last December we were in the second wave of Covid-19,” said Phaahla.

“The number of cases in the fourth wave has exceeded the peaks of the third, the second and the first waves, with the weekly average of new infections of more than 37 per 100 000 of the population. At the peak of the third wave it was at 33 per 100 000, while the second wave had 32 per 100 000 and the first wave was even lower in its peak, at 21 per 100 000 of the population in terms of new infections on an average weekly basis.”

Phaahla said the fourth wave, driven by the Omicron variant, has continued to spread rapidly across South Africa.

“In our country, all nine provinces are essentially in the fourth wave even though, technically, the Northern Cape is still entering the fourth wave. The rising numbers tell us that it is a matter of technical description, otherwise it is already in this fourth wave with the Omicron variant,” said Phaahla.

“Gauteng province is reporting the highest number of new cases per day. The numbers have risen rapidly, especially with the coastal provinces, but all nine provinces have seen a rise. As of yesterday (Thursday), Gauteng accounted for only 25% of new infections. This is compared to seven to 10 days ago where Gauteng was accounting for 70-80% of the new infections.”

The minister said the positivity rate had also increased sharply.

He said the “good news” in this fourth wave is that the recovery rate stands at a resounding 91% in South Africa, and in terms of terms of hospital admissions, Phaahla said only around 7 600 people have been admitted, which is very low compared to the third wave.

Phaahla said the majority of patients admitted in the fourth wave displayed “fairly mild” symptoms.

On Thursday, South Africa’s National Coronavirus Command Council (NCCC) retained the lockdown at 'adjusted level 1', which is the lowest of the five-tier system of restrictions in the battle against Covid-19.
