YOURSAY | The Omicron threat – this time, we have the weapons

Omicron may have been circulating in the global community for some time. South Africa was able to detect it first and unfortunately got hammered by the media and other countries for it.

Anecdotal evidence from doctors treating it in Africa, Europe and Asia is that patients are either asymptomatic or the symptoms are much milder than the Delta variant. Needless to say, the press coverage worldwide has been shameless. Don't let them take you for a ride - stay calm, get information from trusted sources and carry on with your life.Whether this proves to be the mutation that ends the pandemic, I still feel it is right to be proactive and stay cautious till more data is known, which should be evident in the next couple of weeks.

However, that doesn't mean we shouldn't be proactive now and we need to play it safe till more is known. What we see here in our beloved country are two sets of laws - one for the rakyat and one for high-ranking government officers.
