An international music artist has been confirmed as the Omicron case that spent time in the Auckland community on Boxing Day and December 27.

It is Dimension, aka Robert Etheridge, a UK drum and bass artist.

In a social media post late on Wednesday night, Dimension confirmed he had tested positive for the Omicron variant while in New Zealand.

He said he was "devastated" by the news.

He had been due to headline Rhythm and Alps but withdrew at the last minute alongside fellow UK artist Friction.

The announcement came around an hour after the Ministry of Health announced a border-related Omicron case had been out and about in the Auckland CBD on Boxing Day and December 27.

Dimension arrived on a flight from the UK via Doha on December 16 and returned three negative tests before testing positive on December 27, as a result of a day nine test.

On social media, Dimension posted images of himself at a Waiheke Island beach on Christmas Day. A Ministry of Health spokesperson told 1News he should not have entered the community before receiving the result of his day nine test.

However, Dimension said he was "of the understanding" he had completed his quarantine period before entering the community.

"I cannot put into words how extremely sorry I am to everyone who will be impacted," he said.

"Never in a million years did I think anything like this would be a reality in a country that I love so much and that has always made me feel so welcome."

As news broke that he was the Omicron case, his Christmas post began to receive abusive comments from followers angry he had brought the variant to New Zealand.

"If anyone gets sick or dies, it's blood on your hands," one said.

Earlier on Wednesday evening, Friction took to social media to announce he wouldn't be performing at the festival on Wednesday night after discovering he had been a close contact of a "potential Covid case".

Friction had played at Hidden Lakes Festival in Christchurch on Tuesday.

Shortly after, Rhythm and Alps organisers announced fellow UK-based DJ Dimension had also pulled out of the festival.

In a post on Instagram, Friction, real name Ed Keeley, told his followers he wouldn't be able to attend the festival as he had to head into isolation.

"The safety of everyone at the event, as well as the whole of New Zealand is the most important thing to me above everything," he wrote.

"I'm absolutely heartbroken but promise I will see you all very soon."

Later on Wednesday evening, Kiwi duo Lee Mvtthews also announced they were close contacts of Dimension and were heading into self-isolation.

This is what all the dumbasses who just brainlessly parrot "BuT iT's LeSs SeVeRe" are missing.

I mean it fucking sucked and was a huge disappointment compared to the first one, which unfortunately entirely seems to come down to Patty Jenkins being allowed to write the script. So that'll need to change for a third one.

So did Kamala Harris and the like think that Donald Trump was just gonna waddle his ass out there with a lab coat and a cooler full of vials and say 'hey, this is my vaccine'?

Did she really think that there weren't real ass doctors working on a vaccine when she said that? Lol.

No, but she assumed it was possible Trump was just going to waddle his ass out there and start pushing a "vaccine" without any scientific backing/basis the exact same way the worthless shitbag was pushing hydroxychloroquine

No sim card. No headphones jack. How is Iphone better than Android again?

This is a completely different change than removing the headphone jack. The only reason this might suck is because the carriers in places like the US and Canada are complete fucking garbage.

Kind of fucking nuts that the share of covid deaths vs all deaths amongst 25-44-year-old white people has more than tripled.

Also basically doubled amongst 45-64-year-old white people and 25-44-year-old black people. Like what the fuck

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/12/28/us/covid-deaths.html

The overall rate of Covid-19 deaths has declined since vaccines became widely available in April, yet nearly a quarter million people in the United States have died from the virus in the past eight months. The virus is now responsible for a higher share of deaths from all causes for younger Americans and white Americans than it was before all adults were eligible for vaccines.

https://i.imgur.com/95trx3j.png

Covid accounted for 14 percent of all deaths in the United States from March 2020 until all adults became eligible for the vaccine in April, compared with 11 percent of deaths since then.

And while for much of the pandemic, older Americans and people of color were more likely to die from the virus, the demographics of those dying from Covid have shifted too, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

How the arrival of the highly transmissible Omicron variant will affect these trends remains to be seen, since the current data on deaths is reliable only through late November. Scientists are still hopeful that vaccines and especially booster shots will stave off Omicrons worst effects.

Covid-19 has been particularly deadly for older people, but that group was also among the first to be eligible for vaccines. Now, people 65 and older have the highest vaccination rate, with nearly 90 percent of them fully vaccinated.

https://i.imgur.com/EUx2wGw.png

The higher vaccination rate for older people has helped to protect them. Although more older than younger people still die from Covid-19, the virus is now responsible for a smaller share of all deaths among people 65 and older than it was before vaccines became available to all adults. For those younger than 65, Covid-19 has risen as a cause of death.

https://i.imgur.com/nft0NKs.png

The change in death rates among groups is starker by race and ethnicity, and the death rate has risen particularly sharply for middle-aged white people. Covid-19 now accounts for a much larger share of all deaths for that group than it did before vaccines were widely available.

https://i.imgur.com/IAtGZhY.png

Some of the shift could be attributed to the lagging vaccination rates among white people overall. White people were vaccinated at a higher rate than Black and Hispanic people in the early months of the vaccination campaign in part because people of color faced more obstacles to vaccine access.

In recent months, however, data from the C.D.C. shows that the vaccination gap has narrowed. White people are now less likely than Asians and Hispanics to be vaccinated, though somewhat more likely than Black people, and their death rates have risen in all but the oldest age groups.

Younger people from all groups likewise have been vaccinated at lower rates, and children 5 and up have been eligible for vaccines only since early November.

Where people are dying of Covid-19 also has changed since vaccines became widely available. Death rates fell in most counties across the country, and in about one in five counties, the death rate fell by more than half. But in about one in 10 counties, death rates have more than doubled.

https://i.imgur.com/0ib1KJx.png

In the early months of the pandemic, deaths were highest in the Northeast, including in New York City and in other urban areas. Now they are spread across the country. Many places that were spared in the first year of the pandemic have not been able to maintain their low death rates.

Places like Mississippi and Alabama saw death rates fall, but their rates remain higher overall than in places like Vermont and Maine, which saw rates increase but remain low.

States with lower vaccination rates tend to have had higher Covid-19 death rates, particularly from the most recent wave of Delta variant infections, which hit the South the hardest.

https://i.imgur.com/J9iTrUH.png

This all suggests that the change in who is dying from Covid-19 may be tied to which areas experienced the worst outbreaks of the Delta variant and who in those areas remains unvaccinated. Relaxed precautions in many areas may also play a role.

When vaccination rates and behavior changes are not enough to stop the virus from spreading, those infections are much more likely to lead to hospitalization and death for unvaccinated people. The latest data from the C.D.C., which is based on data from 25 states and cities, shows that the death rate for unvaccinated people is 14 times as high as that for vaccinated people.

And Omicron is now causing a surge in coronavirus cases, even in highly vaccinated places. Although preliminary studies abroad suggest that infections from the variant could be milder, scientists caution that it is too soon to tell how deadly it will be, or for whom.

Says the guy who complains about things he believes people posted years ago.

You know what you posted lmao, you're just able to hide behind the fact it was like 5 or 6 alt accounts back for you.

And it's not like TC even denies he got modded for claiming he's trans. That's what started his whole other gimmick with making these topics every time he gets Warned or Purg'd.

It's been months and this dude is literally still upset he got modded for trolling about being trans

So basically anyone who manages to steal my login information can now also steal my phone number?

I mean they literally didn't even need to do that to steal your phone number before lol, look up porting fraud or SIM card swap fraud.

Do people really hate moving games from the internal SSD to an external udb 3.0 HDD (and vice-versa) that much? It's not like it even takes long and you get significantly more space for significantly less money.

I watch WOF often and it's really annoying how sometimes there might be a few blanks left and he will say "so do you want to solve or spin again?". We know he knows the answer but he makes it sound like the contestant is a idiot when he does it.

Well in those instances it can be advantageous to spin again before solving the puzzle (obviously at the risk at hitting Bankrupt or Lose a Spin).

How can you transfer the sim between devices? Let's say I want to change from a OnePlus to a Pixel and I'm paying full retail for both and getting them both delivered without ever going into a store?

With places/carriers that have it set up properly you just sign in to your carrier account and download the profile to the device or something, which then removes it from the original phone.

Make eSIM the standard so if I want to switch carriers I don't have to physically go to a store or booth in a mall or wait a week for a SIM card to arrive in the mail otherwise.

Columbus-Chicago Tuesday and Pittsburgh-Toronto and Boston-Ottawa on Wednesday are postponed lmaoooooo

I was surprised at how much less nudity and sex there was.

Gotta wonder if that was a covid-related thing or not. There was definitely one scene that if it took place in Season 1 would've had nudity.

They couldn't kill him off because it means they couldn't make another movie with him

I wonder if we'll get an announcement tomorrow that the December 28 games are postponed as well lol

This has to be fake. There is no way Tumblr is this sensitive.

It is not!

probably fake. How the fuck can the word "me" be banned?

If you make a post and tag it with "me" it won't show up on a person's dashboard in the iOS app. The only way for that person to see it is if they specifically go to your blog in the app.

tl;dr - Tumblr has pretty much nuked its iOS app, probably at the request of Apple.

I'd actually be interested in seeing that statistic

Still too much money

Ayyyyyyyyyyyyy guys still testing positive lmao

Like it only comes with a download code for the game, there's no cartridge.

Weird considering how long the actual physical version has been out already.

E: Looks to be the same for the Borderlands: Legendary Collection as well. Also to be clear I'm referring to the Bioshock Collection >_>

If you watch the video you can literally see her soul leave her body when she realizes she can't get him to stop talking. He ended her.

Makes me wonder why Trump is being so loud about the vaccine suddenly. He goes a long time without really mentioning them and now hes telling everyone how great they are and admitting being boosted.

Its curious.

Because he views the vaccines as one of his greatest achievements and wants all the credit for getting them done. So basically from his POV all these people going around talking shit about the vaccines are talking shit about him and his "legacy".

Um, actually he is at fault since if he'd done a proper pre-trip inspection like every trucker is supposed to, he'd have known the truck wasn't in safe condition.

The sentence is bullshit, the company should be held accountable as well, but don't claim the driver didn't fail to do part of his job. Especially when some states, Maryland be the first to come to mind, include the pre-trip inspection on the CDL test.


YEah, look up the Ghimli Glider incident. Captain didn't properly verify fuel load, ran out of fuel, and despite performing a landing that was impossible for everyone that did it in simulation, was fired for his fuck up.

Gimli* >_>
