Dr. Gregory Poland is a Physician-Scientist, Professional Speaker, and Editor-in-Chief at Vaccine. Lately, he raised the concern about the Omicron Covid-19 variant and warned the country by the end of this year more than 32,000 people will die to this new variant. During the time of writing, there is at least one active Omicron case across 25 states of the US. In an interview with DailyMail, Poland said “32,000 Americans who think they’re going to be alive to celebrate Christmas and New Years are, no pun intended, dead wrong. Not one of them believes [they will die].” Nevertheless, Dr. Gregory Poland revealed that Omicron hasn’t caused more chaos than the Delta and other Covid strains did, but he warned “Everybody’s comforting themselves with the idea that Omicron is less severe. It may well be but that is very, very, preliminary information that comes from one specific area of the world where Delta has not been as deadly as it was here,” and added “It fascinates me that a tiny little preliminary report like that makes its way around the world. Everybody fixes on that belief. And yet, look at the last year of work trying to get people immunized and they ignore it.”
