I don't think we know enough about it yet, it might be a storm in a tea cup like the delta variant.

So that you can avoid contracting all of the variants that ARE known to be hindered by the vaccine.

The vaccinated sheepie are in fear of Covid and the variants. Living with fear means they will continue to allow themselves to get experimented upon with the booster, the super booster and the ultimate booster if needed to fight the pandemic. So stick it in them. 💉

being dictators here ,ya wont be able to go to movies/pubs♫concerts/restaurants etc etc unless fully vaccinated,if government etc says we need a booster, we need it ..i get my booster next year .

From what I've heard, the Omicron variant is no more serious than an enhanced cold. No vaccine should be necessary. Unless, of course, you're one of those Millennials who are afraid of their own shadow - you know the ones...they wear masks in their own car.

I'd rather err on the side of caution. Its better to get a shot than wind up DEAD.

The same reason you take an extra paracetamol when your headache is coming on, despite taking a co-codamol earlier. What you can't seem to get into your head is that it's still covid - the vaccine works against it. Efficacy varies between variants as the virus makeup is slightly different. Overall you are less likely to die/get hospitalized from it as the vaccine picks up most of the particulates. Omicron is of concern as the vaccine works against it, but it's efficacy is lower due to it's changes.

very good question! omicron is more fear mongering. what's the next Latin number after omicron? you know it's coming and it will come from south africa again too. this nonsense is getting old!

its better to be safe then sorry. ie do what ever you can to be safe from Omricron.

The vaccine for COVID doesn't even work on a lot of people who are getting it o prevent COVID. The first aspect to consider is trusting the "science". The only "science" is the "Fauci" science. There is no other "science" because Fauci won't allow it. As pointed out by Rand Paul in Congress, "second opinions" are not only common in the field of medicine, but encouraged. But whenever a second opinion comes along concerning COVID, it is always censored in favor of Fauci's "one true science". Most of the population that has relied on the medical profession to keep them healthy with pharmaceuticals have set themselves up for disaster. Over time, prescribed medications have damaged their immune system's natural effectiveness. The result is the many side-effects people experience, in which their body's immune system attacks the chemicals that have been injected into it. So we come to the point that a manufactured biological weapon has been unleashed through a collusion between the radical Left and the Chinese as retaliation for Trump winning the election. Fauci is just now answering to Congress over his role in the gain-of-function research that created the virus. You people who are "70% smarter" than Conservatives (according to Hulk's latest poll) seem to only want to listen to the panic mongers and ignore the most significant fact about the Omnicron variant - that it is so less severe as the initial COVID that it's symptoms are no stronger than a **mild** cold. It has caused ZERO deaths. But leave it up to the panic-minded who "err on the side of caution" and you'll be taking yet another dose of vaccines that will do nothing but trash your immune systems even more.

Pfizer said that their vaccine is effective against Omicron.

Because it will keep you from dying or going to the hospital if you contract Omicron. The thing I like about 1465 and Stevo is they complete lack of concern during the worst pandemic in a hundred years, they are completely unconcerned with the virus. Must be nice to be that stupid. It probably takes them two hours to watch "60 Minutes." After all, there are two of them. lol

The reports show that Omicron will be milder or keep you out of the hospital if you are vaccinated.
