US chief epidemiologist and infectious disease specialist Dr. Anthony Fauci has reported to President Joe Biden that final information on a new version of the coronavirus Omicron will be available in two weeks, Reuters reported. Biden received a personal report on the new version from his coronavirus crisis headquarters after returning to Washington at the end of the US holiday weekend. Experts expect Omicron to reach the United States despite an impending ban on visitors from South Africa. The experts reiterated their recommendation that vaccinated people receive booster doses.
Cases of the Omicron variant have been confirmed not only in South Africa but also in Australia, Belgium, Botswana, Great Britain, Germany, Denmark, Israel, Italy, Canada, the Netherlands, France, Hong Kong and the Czech Republic.
