COVID-19 Update: Time to BOOST
• Omicron is now in 30 states (basically everywhere). It is expected to overtake Delta as the dominant strain quickly as it has in Europe.
• Omicron is more transmissible than Delta and can evade natural immunity.
• Vaccination will protect against Omicron. The BEST-KNOWN COMBINATION – 2 doses + Booster.
• IF you BOOST NOW, you will have additional and much-needed protection for the holidays.
• People over 65 are struggling to hold onto immunity from the vaccine. One out of every 100 people over 65 has died from COVID. Your booster protects YOU and YOUR FAMILY.
• More than 150k deaths would have been prevented with vaccines (see Kaiser Family Foundation graphic) this fall alone.
