Commander Ford rallies Team Ontario one last time and girds his loins for battle

And for sure it's the last time. Doug said so himself. 

"Roll up your sleeves for one last booster," he said. 

Ya, right!

We're two years into this shit-show. Surely he doesn't imagine "one last time" has any effect other than inducing maniacal laughter throughout the ranks of Team Ontario?

This is of course fallout from the dreaded Omnicon variant, first officially discovered in South Africa two weeks ago. Our media have told us hundreds of times in these past two weeks that this variant is hyper contagious. 

What they haven't been repeating hundreds of times is that the same lab that found the virus also told us, two weeks ago, that it appears to be significantly less deadly. 

So we're staring into the maw of a highly contagious virus that doesn't make anybody particularly sick.

Sound a lot like the common cold to me.
