Omicron and on and on: COVID Q&A with Dr. Shames

As this year draws to a close and 2022 looms, it's feeling a lot more like 2020. The rise of the Omicron variant of COVID-19 is causing a spike in cases around the world, complete with renewed restrictions in some places.

Oregon reported its first Omicron cases on December 13th, and more will surely follow.

Dr. Jim Shames, Jackson County Medical Director, joins us for weekly Q&A sessions.
