Gurdon: Biden administration creating 'unnecessary panic' over omicron

The Biden administration’s recent travel ban on south African nations is a ploy to appear to be doing something about the omicron coronavirus variant, according to Washington Examiner editor-in-chief Hugo Gurdon.

Gurdon blasted the administration’s “unnecessary panic” over the new variant after the first case was discovered in the United States on Wednesday in a Californian who recently returned from a trip in South Africa. Gurdon pointed out that when one rearranges the letters in the word “omicron,” it becomes “moronic,” which he said is an “apt description of what the Biden administration’s response has been.”
