Should the general public be concerned?Read “What you need to know about XBB.1.5, Omicron’s latest variant” >>
The Bloomberg School of Public Health provided this Q&A with Pekosz to help explain what virologists are seeing, what this new variant means for case rates and treatments, and why it’s so important for more people to get the bivalent booster.
People who haven't had COVID will likely catch XBB.1.5 – and many will get reinfected, experts say.

Raining, raining, raining…. My part of California – inner bay – is soggy, floody in some spots, hosting fallen trees, but essentially doing well in comparison to many other areas of this state.
