Dr. Anthony Fauci predicted Tuesday that the global case tally for Omicron will “change rapidly” as it spreads around the world.
The White House chief medical adviser said at a briefing that the latest COVID-19 variant has already proven it spreads at a fast pace by sweeping all of the provinces in South Africa, where it was first detected by scientists last week before popping up elsewhere.
“Confirmed cases as of yesterday were 205 in 18 countries, and just this morning, that’s gone up to 226 in 20 countries — and I think you’re going to expect to see those numbers change rapidly,” Fauci said.
But the top doc stressed that it will be weeks before more is known about the variant, which has around 50 mutations, most of which are in its spike protein, the part of the virus that binds to human cells

HE is Science don’t you know. He hath spoken!
Do virus variants change to become even stronger/deadlier? Wouldn’t that just be another variant?
You mean Fauci hopes they change
You made this man. You clean up your own mess.
RE: Omicron variant case count could ‘change rapidly’ amid global spread
Case counts again.
I want to know how lethal this particular variant is compared to the original. By all indicators, it isn’t.
The South African doctors who first discovered Omicron tell us that all cases they’ve seen so far are MILD and do not require hospitalization.
Covid fatigue has set in for most people. Gotta crank up the fear machine to lift the fatigue. F*ckers.
Bring out your dead!
Clang!
Bring out your dead
Clang!
What a load of absolute shite.
Naturally variants would become more transmissible and less virulent. That is, unless someone is releasing engineered variants.
so.....some people all around ERF has a Cold....
The media will make it so, just like the scam-demic they made up.
Retire Fauci. Tired of your babble.
A message worth repeating!
Cases ≠ Deaths
Ignore Fauci. He speaks out of both sides of his mouth and gives confusing advise, even contradicting himself.
In the end, Omicron may prove to be a net positive for the world should it bring Covid down to more of a seasonal cold than the Alpha or Delta strains. Yes, more will be infected, but symptoms will become much more manageable in the process, resulting in less suffering.
Angelique Coetzee, chair of the South African Medical Association, was the first doctor to spot Omicron. She confirmed Sunday that cases have been less severe than prior variants.
“There are no prominent symptoms. Of those infected, some are currently being treated at home,” Coetzee said in a BBC interview.
“What we are seeing clinically in South Africa and remember, I’m at the epicenter, that’s where I’m practicing, is extremely mild.”
Most importantly, Coetzee added that “we haven’t admitted anyone” to the hospital and that she “spoke to other colleagues of mine” who reported the “same picture.”
Coetzee concluded her interview by saying that the panic from authorities in regard to Omicron was “definitely” unnecessary.
Who would you listen to? Fauci or this South African Doctor? Your choice.
He knows what he and Xi released..
