Ep44: Oh My Gosh… Omicron Variant?!
Manage episode 316103528 series 2887269
We might have the answer to last month's episode: the pandemic doesn't seem like it's ending anytime soon! From Alpha to now Omicron... we have encountered the newest variant of the coronavirus. Join us this month as we discuss the Omicron variant - why it's more transmissible than the other variants (even the previous Delta variant), if the vaccines are still effective against it, what different provinces in Canada are doing to prepare for the Omicron surge (including rapid tests), and what we can do to help decrease the risk of contracting it. Watch this TikTok video of an analogy for the COVID vaccine and let us know what you think: https://youtu.be/NTgW3Rw-AaY Last but not least, tune in to hear our podcast hosts reflect upon their 2021 New Year's resolutions! Did they achieve their goals?! Music: "Curious" by Bonsai Mammal. Written by Andrew Southwell and Jimmy Harry.
