The Biden administration came under fire for its pandemic response and communications as the omicron variant continues to drive U.S. Covid-19 cases
he Biden administration came under fire for its pandemic response and communications as the omicron variant continues to drive U.S. Covid-19 cases.
The administration’s booster rollout and the recent update to the quarantine and isolation guidance were a “mess” and a “disaster,” Burr said in the hearing. “I’m not questioning the science,” he said, “but I’m questioning your communication strategies. It’s no wonder the American people are confused.”
Although data suggest that omicron infections are less severe than those from other variants such as delta, the transmissibility and high number of infections with the new variant still threaten hospitals, clinics and doctors’ offices with added strain, Walensky said. Other seasonal infections alongside omicron may create an even more dire situation, she said.
