The World Health Organization named the new version of the virus “omicron” and classified it as a highly transmissible variant of concern, though its actual risks are not yet understood. Early evidence suggests it poses an increased risk that people who have already had COVID-19 could catch it again, the WHO said.While the Omicron variant is cause for concern but not panic, you may feel more at ease getting a COVID-19 test. Testing is available at several locations across the county with options available to you at no cost. Visit the San Diego County website to find a location near you. https://bit.ly/3G3cqzs
