WHO urges member states to accelerate vaccination coverage
Adding that "the likelihood of potential further spread of Omicron at the global level is high", in a technical briefing to its 194 member states.
WHO also says that depending on the characteristics of the Omicron variant, there could be future surges in COVID-19 cases moving forward.
I don't think this is anything new and one shouldn't be too startled by headlines finding the Omicron variant in many other countries across the globe.
You can check out this tracker here for some idea but as one can see, it is pretty much starting to be found in many continents around the world already, so yeah.
