CDC Reveals 79% of Omicron Patients Were "Fully Vaccinated", 32% Had Booster Shots
Well, darn, "Andrew", you just can't bring yourself to tell the truth,
can you. Try a dose of the facts at this URL:

Here's some of what the CDC actually says:
We have the Tools to Fight Omicron
Vaccines remain the best public health measure to protect people from COVID-19, slow transmission, and reduce the likelihood of new variants emerging. COVID-19 vaccines are highly effective at preventing severe illness, hospitalizations, and death. Scientists are currently
investigating Omicron, including how protected fully vaccinated people
will be against infection, hospitalization, and death. CDC recommends
that everyone 5 years and older protect themselves from COVID-19 by
getting fully vaccinated. CDC recommends that everyone ages 18 years and older should get a booster shot at least two months after their initial J&J/Janssen vaccine or six months after completing their primary
COVID-19 vaccination series of Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna.
Masks offer protection against all variants. CDC continues to recommend wearing a mask in public indoor settings in areas of substantial or high community transmission, regardless of vaccination status. CDC provides advice about masks for people who want to learn more about what type of
mask is right for them depending on their circumstances.
Tests can tell you if you are currently infected with COVID-19. Two
types of tests are used to test for current infection: nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) and antigen tests. NAAT and antigen tests
can only tell you if you have a current infection. Individuals can use
the COVID-19 Viral Testing Tool to help determine what kind of test to
seek. Additional tests would be needed to determine if your infection
was caused by Omicron. Visit your state, tribal, local, or territorial health department’s website to look for the latest local information on testing.
Self-tests can be used at home or anywhere, are easy to use, and produce rapid results. If your self-test has a positive result, stay home or
isolate for 10 days, wear a mask if you have contact with others, and
call your healthcare provider. If you have any questions about your self-test result, call your healthcare provider or public health
department.
Until we know more about the risk of Omicron, it is important to use all tools available to protect yourself and others.
What CDC is Doing to Learn about Omicron
Virus Characteristics
CDC scientists are working with partners to gather data and virus
samples that can be studied to answer important questions about the
Omicron variant. Scientific experiments have already started. CDC will provide updates as soon as possible.
