发帖数: 1 | 1 A top epidemiologist has warned disaster lies ahead if the Omicron variant
of Covid-19 continues to spread.
Dr Zoë Hyde, an epidemiologist at The University of Western Australia,
tweeted people fully vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine “likely have no
protection against infection with the omicron strain”.
“This is a disaster,” she tweeted.
“Protection after three doses has likely taken a big hit as well. What it
means for severe disease is unclear.”
Dr Hyde, who has pushed for Covid zero and annihilation of the virus,
tweeted “we can expect a huge number of people to become infected”.
“Even if only a small proportion become unwell enough to need
hospitalisation, this could still break healthcare systems,” she tweeted.
“A small proportion of a large number of infections is still a big number.”
She has suggested governments “fund the mass-production and distribution of
KF-94, FFP2, and N95 masks”.
“Cloth and surgical masks aren’t good enough anymore,” she tweeted.
