(ANSA) - ROME, DEC 22 - "A new storm is coming" in Europe with the Omicron variant of Covid which "within a few weeks will dominate in several countries of the region, pushing the health systems already under pressure to the brink".
This was said by WHO Europe director Hans Kluge inviting everyone to take the third dose of the vaccine.
"Boost, boost, boost", he urged, stressing that "the booster is the most important defense against Omicron".
The invitation differs from the WHO official line whose leaders have repeatedly warned the governments that the third dose of vaccine is a luxury and it would be better to give more vaccines to countries in difficulty.
