British Prime Minister Boris Johnson recorded a television appeal to the nation. In it, the politician warned about the avalanche-like an oomikron-strain of coronavirus, writes The Guardian.
Johnson called revaccination the only way to defeat the Omicron strain COVID-19. According to him, vaccinating two doses against the new coronavirus mutation is not as effective, so the third is required. The head of the British government promised that revaccination would be available to all residents of the country for the new year.
Politician added that it is too early to make final conclusions about the infinity of the Omicron strain. He stated that he was aware of the opinion of people to wait for data on the need for revaccination, “suddenly a new strain is not so harsh.”
My answer is needed. Do not think that the Oomikron will not harm you. You or your loved ones may be seriously ill. In South Africa, the number of hospitalization has grown twice. And there, and in the UK there are hospitalized with Omicron, “said he.
Prime Minister stressed that even if the Omicron strain is not so heavy, its rapid spread will cause too much load on the national health system.
Earlier it was reported that the United Kingdom moved to “Plan B” due to the spread of Omicron strain. From December 10, the country made mandatory waging masks in most public places.
