Original title: Fudge: Omicron will sweep the United States, and hospitals in the United States will be "overcrowded" in a week or two
On Christmas Eve, the highly infectious Omicron variant virus spread rapidly in the United States, resulting in a surge of cases and aggravating the epidemic in the United States.
On Sunday, fudge, director of the American Institute of infectious diseases, told ABC that the Omicron variant virus will soon dominate the United States, which will only take a few weeks.
Fudge warning:
According to the current momentum, our hospital will be overcrowded in a week or two.
Fudge mentioned that delta was the main virus before Omicron spread widely in the United States.
With the epidemic "one wave after another", the additional pressure and negative impact of Omicron on the United States has become more serious when delta has not disappeared.
Fudge pointed out:
If we face influenza, Omicron variant and delta variant at the same time in the winter months, the number of confirmed cases and deaths will inevitably rise, and our medical system will be overwhelmed.
It is worth mentioning that in the past week, the number of confirmed cases in New York and Colombia reached a new high for several consecutive days.
The CDC warned that the rapid spread of the Omicron variant virus in the United States may herald a wave of infection peak as early as next month.
President Biden will deliver a key speech on COVID-19 on Tuesday.
In addition, Fudge believes that the Omicron variant virus will make those who have not been vaccinated face a worse situation, and vaccination will produce relatively better protection.
He once again called on the American people to strengthen vaccination as soon as possible, and also believed that the U.S. government should improve the vaccination coverage of children and strengthen the new crown testing.
Especially near the festival, Fudge warned:
Holiday planning needs to be cautious, wear masks on the plane, gather as little as possible and get vaccinated as soon as possible.
