Good news: truth emerging faster than for previous variants. <South Africa Blasts ‘Knee-Jerk And Draconian’ Global Reaction To New Variant — Cases So Far Are ‘Extremely Mild’

Written by K. Walker

November 27, 2021

The South African Minister of Health said on Friday that the country is being “punished for transparency” in quickly reporting the new variant.

South Africa’s Health Minister, Joe Phaahla called travel restrictions imposed by the United States, the United Kingdom, and other countries “knee-jerk and draconian” after reports of a handful of cases of the Omicron (which should really be called the “Xi”) variant of the coronavirus.

South Africa has angrily condemned travel restrictions imposed by countries including Britain as “knee-jerk and draconian” as it scrambled to assess the potential for the new Covid-19 variant to unleash a deadly fourth wave.

In a heated press conference on Friday, the health minister, Joe Phaahla, said his country had acted transparently by alerting the world to the B.1.1.529 variant, which was detected by its scientists earlier this week…

…“The reaction of countries to impose travel bans are completely against the norms and standards as guided by the World Health Organization,” said Phaahla. “The same countries that are enacting this kind of knee-jerk, draconian reaction are battling their own waves.”>
