The omicron variant is worrying scientists — but more research is needed. 'Let me be clear, there is no data at the present time to indicate that the current vaccines would not work,' the NIH director told NPR.

Politicians love the quick and easy 'solution' But

Ah! I guess “African Bans” are cool now that it’s a Biden doing the banning.🤷🏼‍♂️ hypocrites

Let me clear. There isn't data either way yet.

I thought this was 'racist' and 'xenophobic'? It's different now?

You have got to be kidding. They literally have the solution to curing all diseases and they are using it to attack the populace for population control. Well what happens if you find someone immune like me? And many others. Why won't they test us to see what makes us immune?

Why did you Jan 31st 2020 article identify 'Muslim countries' but now you use no identifiers for this ban?

Stop living in fear! They just want control! Variants will pop up until the end of time

Given how effective Delta is in spreading AND how prevalent it is in the US I think I'll remain the dominant variant here for a long time. The best we can do to fight it is get vaxed, get boostered, mask up, sanitize, and be cautious but not lock ourselves in.

A day late smh

midtermvariant

Anti-vax and anti-mask fools are creating variants more deadly than the original Covid virus. They blame Wuhan conspiracies and science they can't begin to understand but they are manufacturing, by accident, more deadly virus than any Deep State boogieman ever could on purpose😷

Lmfao

There is no data.

BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH. MORE VACCINES, MORE DEATHS. MORE FEAR. MORE BS.

Why wait until Monday?

Must be a slow news day....

Two weeks to stop the spread

Mutations will render the current vaccines ineffective. Then the death toll will rise,and maybe then when our children start dying we will force our governmental learners to take decisive action or replace them with people that will. mboli

Omicron may be worrying the scientist, but it’s scaring the hell out of us “regular folk” who have gotten vaccines and boosters and watched vaccines not reach huge swaths of the global population, allowing rampant community transmission and mutation. Thanks CorporateGreed

Answer this, does it float above our heads at restaurants like delta, because science!

this is terrible news

Delta: I am the King of Covid Omicron: Hold my Spike Protein
