Anthony Fauci: The omicron will soon become the dominant force in America



The White House senior medical adviser also warned of overcrowding in US hospitals during the winter, IRNA reported from Hill.
“People who have been fully vaccinated or who have received the third dose of their corona vaccine are safe from the severe form of the disease, but the main concern is among those who have not received any vaccine so far,” Fauci said.
“The Omicron strain will soon become the dominant strain, and I think we will be in that within a few weeks to January,” said the US government’s chief infectious disease specialist, during a program hosted by the American Chamber of Commerce Foundation.
Fauci noted that the Delta strain in the United States now infects an average of 120,000 people a day in the United States, killing 1,000 people a day, and that the spread of the Omicron strain will worsen the situation in the United States.
The White House Chief Medical Adviser has warned that the incidence of coronary heart disease and deaths in the United States will increase, and that the simultaneous outbreak of Omicron and Delta strains in the winter, as well as the flu, will increase the capacity of US hospitals.
He also said that two years of continuous fight against the corona virus has exhausted and disabled the American health staff.
According to IRNA, the new Reuters statistics show that at the same time with the beginning of the holiday and cold season, as well as the spread of the omicron strain in the United States, the number of victims of the coronary heart disease in this country has reached 800,000.
Despite the free and widespread availability of vaccines in the country, the number of deaths of this virus this year has been higher compared to 2020. This is because of the widespread prevalence of delta in the United States and the opposition of people to the Corona vaccine.
Since the beginning of this year, more than 450,000 people in the United States have died of coronary heart disease. This is 57% of the total number of corona victims in the United States since the beginning of the corona crisis in this country.
Health experts say most corona deaths this year have been among those who have not been vaccinated against corona.
In the last 111 days, the number of corona deaths in the United States has risen from 600,000 to 700,000. But in just 73 days, more than 100,000 new corona feet have been recorded in the country.
According to American media, the omicron strain has been identified in 36 US states and this strain is spreading rapidly in this country.
