No need to panic but….
The omicron variant spread between two fully vaccinated travelers across a hallway of a quarantine hotel — neither of whom had left their room.
@anita_rotheram Darn. This has me thinking I’ll not go to the accounting conf in Las Vegas in Jan. I was planning on staying inside my room and not socializing. Was it in the air venting system, I wonder.
@yogapaddlerun Wow. I'm staying home. @ACG2 @anita_rotheram
@Lindy @ACG2 @anita_rotheram I’m waiting to see how presentation is in vaccinated people, if it stays mild (and not just confounded because younger people getting it first) I won’t worry as much. But we don’t know yet…
@yogapaddlerun @Lindy @anita_rotheram Good point. I do want to go - waiting to see the science of what works against getting sick.
@ACG2 @anita_rotheram Security camera footage shows them opening their doors a few seconds apart to get food delivery. They think that was enough cross contamination to cause infection. No one else on the floor got Omicron.
