They urge wider vaccination now, while today's shots still work.
Omicron is more likely than delta to reinfect individuals who previously had COVID-19 and to cause “breakthrough infections” in vaccinated people while also attacking the unvaccinated. The World Health Organization reported a record 15 million new COVID-19 cases for the week of Jan. 3-9, a 55% increase from the previous week.
Along with keeping comparatively healthy people out of work and school, the ease with which the variant spreads increases the odds the virus will infect and linger inside people with weakened immune systems - giving it more time to develop potent mutations.
With so many unvaccinated people, he said, “the virus is still kind of in control of what's going on.”
Experts say the virus won't become endemic like the flu as long as global vaccination rates are so low.
During a recent press conference, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said that protecting people from future variants — including those that may be fully resistant to today's shots — depends on ending global vaccine inequity. Tedros said he’d like to see 70% of people in every country vaccinated by mid-year. Currently, there are dozens of countries where less than a quarter of the population is fully vaccinated, according to Johns Hopkins University statistics. And in the United States, many people continue to resist available vaccines.

Tokyo with a high rate of most professionals vaccinated, well the daily rate now of positive cases have skyrocketed. Remember the figures you hear are not the same day. The figures can be 2 or more days old, so what you hear is not current as of the day.

How many vaccinated are hospitalized over there?
Its notable that they might not like the idea of leaving people un vaccinated.
The Truth will be known one way or the other.

Not if you apply theraputics to the disease.
Just like the over use of antibiotits. You will create a sitiuation where the disease will proliferate against the drug/vaccine.
You're best bet right now is getting covid and get the antibodies naturally.
