Even though the shortage is worrisome, the public still has several ways to protect itself, said Dr. Rodney E. Rohde, a professor and chair of the Clinical Laboratory Science Program at Texas State University. Vaccine holdouts should sign up for the jab, and those who are eligible should get the booster shot now.
So far, vaccinated people have shown to develop very mild symptoms with the omicron variant, said Rodhe, who’s also an associate adjunct professor at Austin Community College. But in the coming weeks, Texas and most other states will continue to experience a surge from the omicron variant because of post-holiday travel.
Rohde also wants Texans to know that the latest surge will place “very dangerous levels” of strain on the health care workforce.
