Washington: – US entrepreneur Bill Gates said that the spread of the Omicron variant of the Coronavirus could prove to be the worst period in the pandemic. Gates expressed a concern that the spread of Omicron is so rapid that it will spread globally soon. Last month, Gates warned that the world would have to face much more dangerous pandemics than Coronavirus.
Moreover, Gates pointed to the threat of the Omicron virus through his tweet on the social networking platform Twitter. The US entrepreneur warned, ‘Just when it seemed like life would return to normal, we could be entering the worst part of the pandemic. Omicron will hit home for all of us. Close friends of mine now have it, and I’ve cancelled most of my holiday plans. Omicron is spreading faster than any virus in history. It will soon be in every country in the world.’
Bill Gates warned ‘The big unknown is how sick Omicron makes you. We need to take it seriously until we know more about it. Even if it’s only half as severe as delta, it will be the worst surge we have seen so far because it’s so infectious.’ Moreover, Bill Gates also claimed, ‘If there’s good news here, it’s that Omicron moves so quickly that once it becomes dominant in a country, the wave there should last less than three months. Those few months could be bad, but I still believe if we take the right steps, the pandemic can be over in 2022.’
