Omicron Is Finally Burning Out

“After a frenetic few weeks when the Omicron variant of the coronavirus seemed to infect everyone, including the vaccinated and boosted, the United States is finally seeing encouraging signs,” the New York Times reports.

“As cases decline in some parts of the country, many have begun to hope that this surge is the last big battle with the virus — that because of its unique characteristics, the Omicron variant will usher Americans out of the pandemic.”

Axios: “Most of that decline is being driven by continued improvement on the East Coast, particularly in and around New York, Washington, D.C., and New England.”
