Omicron
Manage episode 308380629 series 2643582
Andy breaks down everything you need to know about the Omicron variant with epidemiologist Katelyn Jetelina. They cover what we know about Omicron's transmissibility, the severity of illness it causes, and how it impacts immunity – whether from vaccination or prior infection. They discuss why Omicron worries scientists, how quickly the mRNA vaccines could be tailored to fight Omicron if needed, and what the emergence of this new variant says about global vaccine equity.
