Two international flight passengers who tested positive to COVID-19
after arriving in Sydney have been confirmed as Australia’s first cases
of the new Omicron variant of concern, after urgent genomic sequencing
was completed on Sunday.

The pair were passengers on Qatar Airways flight QR908 from Doha which
landed at Sydney Airport at about 7pm on Saturday. They have been in
isolation in special health accommodation since their arrival.

In a statement, NSW Health said the pair were asymptomatic and both
fully vaccinated.

The other 260 passengers on the flight are now considered close contacts
of a COVID-19 case and have been directed by health authorities to isolate.

“It is an offence not to comply with a Public Health Order and penalties
can apply,” NSW Health said. “Close contacts will be contacted
regularly, and compliance checks will be undertaken.”

In a statement on Sunday morning, NSW Health confirmed testing on
arrival at Sydney Airport had identified two of the 14 passengers on the
flight who had recently been in southern Africa had COVID-19, and urgent
genomic sequencing was being carried out to determine whether they were
infected by the new Omicron B.1.1.529 variant.

It came hours after federal Health Minister Greg Hunt announced a
two-week ban on non-citizens arriving from South Africa, Namibia,
Zimbabwe, Botswana, Lesotho, Eswatini, Seychelles, Malawi and Mozambique.

Australian citizens arriving from those countries are now required to
enter 14 days of supervised quarantine upon arrival in Australia.

Another 15 arrivals from southern Africa arrived at Sydney Airport on an
Emirates flight which landed around 11pm. All 29 have entered hotel
quarantine.

“The clear point today is that this clearly demonstrates the pandemic is
not over,” Premier Dominic Perrottet said earlier on Sunday.

“We need to learn to live alongside the virus and to live alongside the
various strains of the virus that will come our way, and the best thing
we can do is get vaccinated and get booster shots.”

The Premier added that there were “limits” to what the government could
do going forward to keep new variants out of Australia.

“These variants will get into the country, it is inevitable,” Mr
Perrottet said.

Health Minister Brad Hazzard said it was possible the Omicron variant
has already entered NSW, where fully vaccinated international arrivals
have not been required to enter hotel quarantine since November 1.

What we know about Omicron, the new coronavirus variant
“This Omicron variant of the COVID virus is not well understood at this
point,” Mr Hazzard said, noting that it only took three weeks for the
Delta variant to spread to 53 countries.

“We have to expect that Omicron may already be here.”

NSW has so far recorded no cases of the Omicron variant in its genomic
sequencing program.

The state recorded another 185 cases of COVID-19 and zero deaths in the
24 hours to 8pm on Saturday, NSW Health reported Sunday morning.

Anyone who has already arrived in Australia and has been in any of the
countries within the past 14 days, must immediately isolate themselves
and get tested.

Mr Hazzard asked anyone who had been in southern Africa in the past 14
days to immediately contact NSW Health.

In addition, both NSW and Victoria moved on Saturday night to introduce
72-hour isolation requirements for all fully vaccinated international
arrivals, regardless of their country of departure.

On Sunday, the Premier stressed this was a “short-term precaution” in
light of the changing situation.

Europe, Britain and a host of other countries have also closed their
borders to non-residents arriving from the same countries due to the
emergence of the variant.

Federal Health Minister Greg Hunt said there was one existing case of
COVID-19 from southern Africa currently isolating at the Howard Springs
quarantine facility in the Northern Territory, and that case will also
be examined further to determine whether it is the concerning new variant.

Despite concerns Omicron may be highly transmissible – even more so than
Delta – Mr Perrottet said the state government was not planning to make
any changes to the post-lockdown reopening road map, with restrictions
still set to ease for unvaccinated people on December 15.

The only *healthy* way to stop the pandemic, thereby saving lives, in
Australia/elsewhere is by rapidly ( http://bit.ly/RapidTestCOVID-19 )
finding out at any given moment, including even while on-line, who
among us are unwittingly contagious (i.e pre-symptomatic or
asymptomatic) in order to http://bit.ly/convince_it_forward (John
15:12) for them to call their doctor and self-quarantine per their
doctor in hopes of stopping this pandemic. Thus, we're hoping for the
best while preparing for the worse-case scenario of the Alpha lineage
mutations and others like the Omicron, Gamma, Beta, Epsilon, Iota,
Lambda, Mu & Delta lineage mutations combining via slip-replication to
form hybrids that render current COVID vaccines/pills no longer
effective.

Indeed, I am wonderfully hungry ( http://bit.ly/RapidTestCOVID-19 )
and hope you, Michael, also have a healthy appetite too.

So how are you ?








...because we mindfully choose to openly care with our heart,

Australia is one of the countries that the low-lifes from your country
infest, bringing with them all types of disease and social ills. Why
can't you people stay where you belong?

Laus DEO !

While wonderfully hungry ( http://bit.ly/Philippians4_12 ) in the Holy
Spirit, Who causes (Deuteronomy 8:3) me to hunger right now (Luke
6:21a), I pray (2 Chronicles 7:14) that GOD continues to curse
(Jeremiah 17:5) you, who are eternally condemned (Mark 3:29), more
than ever in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen.

Bottom line:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sci.med.cardiology/O23NguTslhI/h5lE-mr0DAAJ

<begin trichotomy>

(1) Born-again (John 3:3 & 5) humans - Folks who have GOD's Help (i.e.
Holy Spirit) to stop (John 5:14) sinning by being
http://bit.ly/wonderfully_hungry (Philippians 4:12) **but** are still
able to choose via their own "free will" to be instead
http://bit.ly/terribly_hungry (Genesis 25:32) trapped in the
entangling (Hebrews 12:1) deadly (i.e. killed immortals Adam&Eve) sin
of gluttony (Proverbs 23:2).

(2) Eternally condemned (Mark 3:29) humans - Folks who will never have
GOD's Help (i.e. Holy Spirit) to stop being
http://bit.ly/terribly_hungry (2 Kings 6:29) as evident by their
constant vainjangling (1 Timothy 1:6) about everything except how to
stop (John 5:14) sinning.

(3) Perishing humans - The remaining folks who may possibly (Matthew
19:26) become born-again (John 3:3 & 5) as new (2 Corinthians 5:17)
creatures in Christ.

>Shame on andrew, look at his red face.

LIE.

The color of my face in **not** visible here on USENET nor is the
color of my face red for those who can see me.

>He is trying to pull a fast one. His scripture bit is found among these:
>
>'14 Bible verses about Spiritual Hunger'

Such are the lies coming from the lying pens of the
http://bit.ly/terribly_hungry (Genesis 25:32) commentators.

That which is "spiritual" is independent of time so that there
would've been no reference to "now."

Therefore, the LORD is referring to physical hunger here instead of
the spiritual "hunger and thirst for righteousness" elsewhere in
Scripture.

Indeed, physical hunger can **not** coexist with physical thirst
because the latter results in the loss of saliva needed for physical
hunger.

It is when we hunger for food "now" (Luke 6:21a) that we are able to
eat food "now."

No such time constraints exist for "spiritual hunger."

Moreover, the perspective of Luke 6:21a through the eyes of a
physician (i.e. Dr. Luke) would be logically expected to be physical
instead of spiritual.

All glory ( http://bit.ly/Psalm117_ ) to GOD for His compelling you to
unwittingly demonstrate your ever worsening cognitive condition which
is tragically a consequence of His cursing (Jeremiah 17:5) you more
than ever.

Laus DEO !

someone eternally condemned & ever more cursed by GOD perseverated:
(in a vain attempt to refute posts about being wonderfully hungry)

>Psalms
>81:10 I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt:
>open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

Indeed, receiving a mouthful (Psalm 81:10) of manna from GOD will only
make His http://HeartMDPhD.com/Redeemed want even more, so that we're
even http://bit.ly/wonderfully_hungrier with all glory (
http://bit.ly/Psalm117_ ) to GOD.

Laus DEO !

>Proverbs
>13:25 The righteous has enough to satisfy his appetite, But the stomach of
>the wicked is in need.

Indeed, the righteous know to be satisfied (Luke 6:21a) with an omer
(Exodus 16:16) of manna, while the wicked need (Proverbs 13:25) this
knowledge as evident by their eating until they are full (i.e.
satiated).

>Joel
>2:26 And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of
>the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my
>people shall never be ashamed.

Indeed, an omer (32 ounces per Revelation 6:6) of manna is plenty
(Joel 2:26) with all glory ( http://bit.ly/Psalm117_ ) to GOD and to
the shame of you, who are eternally (Mark 3:29) condemned.

Laus DEO ! !

>Psalms
>107 For he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.

Indeed, being filled (Psalm 107:9) with an omer (Exodus 16:16) of
manna is a Wonderful (Isaiah 9:6) thing while being satiated (i.e.
full) is evil.

>Acts
>14:17 "Yet he did not leave himself without witness, for he did good by
>giving you rains from heaven and fruitful seasons, satisfying
>your hearts with food and gladness."

In the interim, you, who are eternally (Mark 3:29) condemned, will
never be satisfied (Acts 14:17) because you are ever more cursed
(Jeremiah 17:5) by GOD.

>> Does andrew's "definition" agree with scripture? Let's see in 1 John:

Actually, sin is **not** defined in 1 John 1:8-10

>> John wrote this to christians. The greek grammer (sic) speaks of an ongoing

John was a Jew instead of a Greek so there is really no reason to
think that Greek grammar is relevant here.

>> 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is

>>
>> 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins,
>> and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
>>
>> 1:10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is
>> not in us.

John also wrote earlier at John 5:14 that LORD Jesus commands:

"Now stop sinning or something worse may happen to you." (John 5:14)

And, indeed, your being eternally condemned (Mark 3:29) & ever more
cursed (Jeremiah 17:5) by GOD, as evident by your ever worsening
cognitive deficits, is really worse.

Now again, here's how to really stop sinning as LORD Jesus commands
(John 5:14):

https://groups.google.com/d/msg/alt.bible.prophecy/2-Qpn-o81J4/ldGubKEZAgAJ

While wonderfully hungry ( http://bit.ly/Philippians4_12 ) in the Holy
Spirit, Who causes (Deuteronomy 8:3) me to hunger right now (Luke
6:21a), I again pray (2 Chronicles 7:14) that GOD continues to curse
(Jeremiah 17:5) you, who are eternally condemned (Mark 3:29), more
than ever in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen.

Laus DEO ! ! !

Again, this is done in hopes of convincing all reading this to stop
being http://bit.ly/terribly_hungry (2 Kings 6:29) where all are in
danger of becoming eternally condemned (Mark 3:29) just as had
happened to Ananias and Sapphira and more contemporaneously to Bob
Pastorio.

Again, the LORD did strike down http://bit.ly/Bob_Pastorio on Fool's
day just 9+ years ago:

http://bobs-amanuensis.livejournal.com/8728.html

Again, this is done ...
