From the data we have available so far it still seems that Omicron doesn't cause serious illness in children and the good news is that children over five can get vaccinated and vaccination does proffer a significant amount of protection.

Because Omicron spreads rapidly, we will see fully vaccinated people get Covid-19, but vaccinated people who get Covid will likely have no symptoms or mild symptoms.

I'm sorry that demand was so enormous over the last few days -- we did not anticipate so much news about Omicron, we did not anticipate that the supply chain would run out of the home tests. In my own pharmacies last week, there were shelves and shelves of home tests to take care of the demand. When I went by yesterday, there were none, good luck finding an at-home test in some parts of the country.

'It's not just another COVID wave, it's a tsunami,' that is how one expert describes the threat heading for the U.S. as the Delta variant continues to fuel new cases and hospitalizations. And the omicron variant spreads as quickly as any virus since the measles. We are already seeing the impact as long lines for COVID tests are forming across New York City, these people lining up to be tested at a mobile testing van all before the van even arrived.

We will get past omicron. We will continue our recovery in this city, vaccination will be the key to all of this and New York City continues to lead the way in this country in terms of huge numbers of people vaccinated and aggressive measures to get even more folks vaccinated.

I want to send a direct message to the American people: Due to the steps we've taken, omicron has not yet spread as fast as it would have otherwise done, but it's here now, and it's spreading, and it's going to increase ... We are looking at a winter of severe illness and death for the unvaccinated – for themselves, their families and the hospitals they'll soon overwhelm.

We now have a much better understanding of why the booster is so important, it can have a major impact potentially on whether someone has a serious illness with either Delta or Omicron or a more mild illness -- so I'm convinced that this is just a matter of time before this change occurs.

The reason is, when you get that third dose, you get a 30 - to 40-fold rise in virus-neutralizing antibodies, and therefore there's more spillover protection against new variants, including Omicron, the third dose gives Peter Hotez 70 % to 75 % protection against symptomatic illness.

We have vaccines, we have boosters, and we know multi-layer prevention strategies — masks in public indoor settings, practicing physical distancing, frequent handwashing, improving ventilation, and testing to slow transmission — are vitally important, especially as we prepare for more Omicron and even if you are vaccinated and boosted.

Omicron is serious, and it requires a really nuanced response in which we try to acknowledge the fact that for most boosted people, the risks really remain quite low.

As recently as a week ago, I thought maybe we had enough tests, but if Omicron ends up at 200,000 or 300,000 cases a day, we likely don't have enough tests, at each stage we thought it was close to enough, and now we know it's not enough.

We didn’t see delta coming. I think most scientists did not — upon whose advice and direction we have relied — didn’t see delta coming, we didn’t see omicron coming. And that’s the nature of what this, this awful virus has been, which as it turns out, has mutations and variants.

When you think about that this virus has the potential to double every two days, then in a couple of weeks we're going to be facing a lot of cases of Omicron, that modeling implies that sometime in January, we will be at a different stage of recognizing Omicron, maybe as even a predominant virus. However, we still are learning about the severity, transmissibility.

We have the tools to fight this virus, including Omicron, and we're in a very different and stronger place than we were a year ago and there is no need to lock down.

National Institutes of Health's clear that Omicron is an extremely contagious variant, that it doubles every two to four days.

Francis Collins

We still don't really know -- and there's some controversy about this -- whether Omicron causes the same kind of severity of disease or whether it's a somewhat milder form of the illness.

Francis Collins

The problem, of course, is if this is so infectious -- and we might see hundreds of thousands of cases every day, maybe even a million cases in a day from Omicron -- even if it's a little less severe, you are going to have a lot of people in the hospital and our hospitals are already really stretched with Delta, especially in the northern part of the country.

Although delta continues to circulate widely in the United States, omicron is increasing rapidly and we expect it to become the dominant strain in the United States – as it has in other countries – in the coming weeks, we've seen cases of omicron among those who are both vaccinated and boosted and we believe these cases are milder or asymptomatic because of vaccine protection.

Rochelle Walensky

I imagine Omicron will be everywhere soon, and there'll be a lot of Omicron around that most countries haven't detected yet, in part because testing systems and genomic capacities may be limited.

It’s crazy. (Omicron) is already spreading in France, i mean I understand they need to protect the people but it’s here. What can you do? And it’s gonna hurt people. It hurts people, it hurts tourists, it hurts your local businesses.

National Institute of Allergy has what we call a doubling time of about three days. And if you do the math on National Institute of Allergy, if you have just a couple of percentage of the isolates being Omicron, very soon it's going to be the dominant variant.

The vulnerable people are the people who have not been vaccinated, and I hope that the possibility that we're seeing -- that we're going to be getting a surge of Omicron, which is almost inevitable given its characteristic of high degree of transmissibility, we have the tools to be able to blunt this. We just need to implement them.

Anthony Fauci

We are already in a Delta surge. I mean, the cases are going up, and then you have, looking over your shoulder, the Omicron variant, which we know from what's going on in South Africa and in the UK, is a highly transmissible virus.

Omicron definitely has the potential to create distortions in the near-term but I don't think it disrupts the narrative, the general story for 2022 is intact.
