Omicron is the latest thing COVID-19 has dumped on our windscreen just as we thought we left the driveway and were going places. This episode Andrew talks through the science of the most mutated variant yet Omicron after Ireland's first case, how our defenses will manage and what the future of Ireland will look like with COVID.
Much of mainstream media has caused quite a stir and Andrew thinks things are much more mild than they appear. Admitting we should be cautious, he is not concerned that Ireland has strong defenses built to handle anything the virus throws at us. The future is bright and everyone can take a sigh of relief. Oh, and get vaccinated. It's great! It looks like third doses will be needed and early data is showing that it is solid.
Although NPHET and the government have reintroduced new restrictions, Andrew does not see this as a disaster but as a a cautious move in the face of the new variant and following the disastrous third wave last year.
