Dr. Scott Gottlieb CNBC interview: Oral antivirals should still work with the Omicron variant; There is a reasonable degree of confidence from vaccine makers that people who received a COVID-19 booster will have "fairly good protection" against Omicron variant (458.97)
Dr. Gottlieb said:

He thinks Omicron variant could have first emerged in early October or November in South Africa.
It has been circulating for more time, it would just suggest it was circulating against declining hospitalizations.
There could be a surge in Delta infection in South Africa as well.
Oral antivirals should still work with the Omicron variant, but there is some question about Regeneron Pharma (REGN) antibody treatments.
There is a reasonable degree of confidence from vaccine makers that people who received a COVID-19 booster will have "fairly good protection" against Omicron variant.
There is a concern about immunity from prior infection.
He thinks the FDA is in position to move on approval of new vaccine very quickly if needed.
