A wave of COVID-19 infections moving forward in many Caribbean islands, including in Antigua and Barbuda. At the same time, the Omicron variant has been detected in a number of islands as well. We ask: How does Omicron differ from past variants? And what will it mean for the COVID-19 situation here in A&B and in the wider Caribbean region?

This programme first aired on NewsCo Observer Radio 91.1 FM on January 16th, 2022. The host is Kieron Murdoch. The guests are:

Dr. Carlene Radix, medical doctor, and Head of the Human and Social Division at the OECS Commission.
Dr. Jerrol Thomson, medical doctor, and a specialist on infectious diseases. He serves as an advisor to the St Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG) Covid-19 Task Force.
Dr. George Roberts, medical doctor here in Antigua and Barbuda, and an ear nose and throat specialist.
