Instructions
With  omicron  spreading  globally  at  a  dizzying  pace,  scientists  are  scrambling  to  learn  as  much  as  they  can  about  the  latest  worrisome  variant  of  the  coronavirus.  First    in  South  Africa  and  Botswana  at  the  end  of  November,  omicron  is  already    to  soon  become  the  dominant  variant  dethroning  delta  in  some  regions,  public  health  officials  warn.  In  a  few  places,  it  already  has.  So  answers,  including  how  sick  does  omicron  make  people  and  how  well  do  vaccines    it,  can't  come  fast  enough.  A  rising  tide  of  data  on  omicron  is  beginning  to  provide  a  glimpse  at  what's  ahead  as  we  enter  year  three  of  the  global  pandemic,  though  many  questions  linger.  And  with  many  people  preparing  to  gather  with  family  and  friends  for  holidays,  experts  are    for  yet  more  case  surges,  compounded  by  already  high  infection  rates  in  some  countries  linked  to  the  still-prevalent  delta  variant.  Omicron's  collision  with  the  holidays  and  travel  is  "a  perfect  storm".  At  this  point,  even  vaccinated  people  should  be    precautions,  such  as  wearing  masks  indoors  and  testing  before  family  gatherings.
