Omicron still not fully understood - is transmission faster, does it reduce vaccine efficacy, is it as hard to mitigate outbreaks Delta? Until +90% vacc coverage of total pop (not just +12yr) quarantine must be supervised for every traveller from every country. Test day-1, 4, 5.

Any chance that it is more contagious but lower virulence (lower mortality)? Could take over from delta but kill less.

Dr Angelique Coetzee Chair of South African Medical Association says only mild symptoms. Why do you always rush to vaccine agenda when you dont even know anything about the new variant?

We were in a rabid panic when the “end of the world Delta strain” arrived. This will be just more clickbait for the bottom feeding media to suckle on for a few weeks.

I fly back to AU from Indonesia tomorrow and this absolute nonsense about quarantine is giving me the shits! I have done 57 days of mandatory quarantine this year and none of this is for pleasure, it’s my job. Your job is to base things on facts, not guesses!!!

Disappointed that ppl like you have joined the fearmongering circus when all this inevitably does is aid anti vaxxers pushing that all you want is indefinite fear and restrictions. Learning to live with covid, means just that... living with that, not in constant fear of it

The Vaccine doesn't work to stop transmission , give it up. Refer to your July Modelling - 67%-80% of total population for herd immunity .
