“This morning my medical adviser Dr. Tony Fossie and members of our Govt response team explained to me about the Omigron variant that is spreading in South Africa. As a precaution, I have additional restrictions until we have more information. Effective November 29. We will continue to be guided by the recommendations of Science and my medical team, the announcement was made by US President Joe Biden.
“Two important messages for the American people and one for the world community,” Biden was quoted as saying in a White House statement. “First, for Americans who have been vaccinated against Govt – thankfully, most of our adults – the best way to strengthen your defenses is to get a booster vaccine as soon as you qualify. Boosters are approved. “They are safe, free and affordable. Get an immediate recall so you can get extra security during the holidays. ”
“Second, for those who have not yet been fully vaccinated: get vaccinated today. This applies to both children and adults. The United States has been at the forefront of vaccinating children ages 5 to 11 for many months now. The Americans need it. If you have not been vaccinated or have not brought your children to be vaccinated, now is the time. “
“Finally, for the global community: the news of this new variation should make it clear why the epidemic will not end until there is a global vaccination. The United States has already donated more vaccines to other countries. Countries together.
“In addition, I call on the nations to meet next week at the World Trade Organization’s Ministerial Meeting to accept the United States’ challenge to abandon intellectual property protection over the Kovit vaccine so that these vaccines can be produced globally. I support this. .
