The WHO has not seen any reports of deaths caused by omicron, and again urged people not to panic as for now the delta strain remains dominant around the world.
The World Health Organization said Friday it has not seen any reports of deaths caused by the new variant of the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 dubbed omicron, and again urged people not to panic as for now the delta strain remains dominant around the world.
Sahin has said this week that the current vaccine should still offer protection against severe disease, even with the many mutations carried by omicron. The U.S. has already implemented restrictions on travel from South Africa and neighboring countries and President Joe Biden on Thursday called for unity as his administration rolled out a plan for fighting COVID-19 during the winter, while also pushing back on Republican opposition to his vaccine mandate for large employers.
The administration’s winter COVID plan, which comes as the omicron variant of the coronavirus sparks concerns, includes an expansion for at-home testing in the U.S. and tighter COVID testing timelines for travelers entering the country. The country recorded 74,352 new cases on Friday and 390 fatalities, according to data from the Robert Koch Institute.
