    Scientists in South Africa are scrambling to combat the new COVID-19 variant omicron's lightning spread across the country. The country’s case numbers are still relatively low, but omicron’s speed in infecting young people has alarmed health professionals.http://apne.ws/6RwBsoA

        The wealthy countries think they can ignore the poorer countries and continue their efforts of making billions while we get back to “normal” Caring about people will allow us to get through this pandemic. Vaccinate Africa or we will continue to lockdown. #COVID19 #Omicron
