It's an empty gesture to look like they will help which is not near enough in doing that anyway. How will they prove its due to omicron when you don't test everyone for the variant they have and easy to mislead if you don't inform people what variant they have tested positive for

That won't help them compared to what income they would usually be getting especially this time of the year. Maybe the government should be cutting down their own ridiculously high salaries, profit bonuses and expenses then they could help out with the mess they put us in!

Never enough

The whole thing is ridiculous for a damn cold regular cold all this is happening because most people that had the booster have a cold and you are ruining our country for that we used to be able to go out with a cold we can't anymore
