The CDC says the 'stealth' omicron variant, BA.2, now accounts for 55.4% of COVID circulating in New England, compared to just 34.9% of new infections nationally.
Biden administration's incoming COVID czar Dr. Ashish Jha said
More data is needed to determine whether the BA.2 variant poses a greater threat in terms of case severity, but the World Health Organization has already said it is"" than the original omicron strain that besieged the globe in November. For now, experts say to expect a case uptick but no major resurgence.
Top Boston doctors talked about a new "Deltacron" variant, rising cases in Europe and Asia and whether a fourth vaccine dose is really necessary on NBC10 Boston’s weekly “COVID Q&A” series. Boston Medical Center's Dr. Sabrina Assoumou agreed with her colleague. She said officials should use this surge in China to prepare here at home.
