LOS ANGELES - Segment One:
Hal is joined my doctor and emergency medicine professor Matt Waxman to talk about the omicron variant.
Waxman discusses the recent developments regarding the omicron variant. He says that it doesn't appear to be as severe as the Delta variant, but it spreads more quickly. He also says that while the Omicron variant doesn't seem to be as strongly controlled by the Pfizer vaccine, the booster adds significant protection.
