Yep... Omikron, spreads quick.
In the UK they "ran" out of testing capacity (erm, can't find covid if you dont look for it right? look our numbers arnt that bad!)
In denmark, we re testing more than ever, and also doing strain tests on every sample (which makes our numbers look bad, but are closer to reality).
Omikron is like 80% of our cases now.
This thing spreads way faster than delta did.
We had 10-15% of people, test positive when they came in for PCR tests, leading upto the newyear.
Throw in Christpas gatherings, and new year gatherings & parties... its a cocktail of horror.
At this point, I assume most of the population will eventually get Omikron, reguardless of where you are in the world.
Its too contaigious to contain, and too hard to avoid getting (forever), eventually everyone will have gotten it.
That reminds me, time to book my 3rd shot (a booster)....
Hopefully get it, before omikron gets me.
