Omicron variant is 'cause for concern, not a cause for panic," Biden says
Fox News
President Biden on Monday said the new omicron variant of coronavirus is a “cause for concern, not a cause for panic,” while maintaining that his administration's plan to combat COVID-19 this winter will not involve “shut downs or lock downs," but rather a strategy for more widespread vaccinations.
Biden, last week, restricted travel from South Africa and seven other countries over concerns of the "heavily mutated" omicron variant of COVID-19--a move he said Monday gives the United States "time."
