Washington: White House medical adviser Anthony Fauci on Sunday said the easily transmissible variant Omicron is “raging through the world,” and travelling will increase the risk of infection even among vaccinated people. He was speaking at an interview with NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
Fauci urged Americans travelling over the upcoming holidays to get booster shots and always wear masks in crowded public spaces to help slow the spread of the Omicron variant of the coronavirus.
“We are going to see breakthrough infection – there is no doubt about that,” Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said.
Omicron has been found through testing in more than 20 U.S. states and around 90 countries so far after first being identified in southern Africa and Hong Kong in late November.
