Dr. Siegel cautions against fear of the unknown with Omicron variant<\/h4>\n

Fox News medical contributor Dr. Marc Siegel reacts to the first U.S. Omicron COVID case and the latest on the Delta variant. <\/p>\n

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis announced Thursday that a case of the omicron variant of the coronavirus has been documented in his state.<\/p>\n

“Just moments ago, Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment confirmed the first Colorado case of the omicron variant,” Polis said in a press conference. “It is somebody who just traveled to southern Africa and returned.”<\/p>\n

Polis said that the individual is a female suffering mild symptoms who is isolating at home.<\/p>\n

The individual was vaccinated but had not received a booster shot, the governor said.<\/p>\n

Polis added that he does not believe the omicron variant is “prevalent” in Colorado due to waste waster tests and samples of coronavirus tests. <\/p>\n

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment also issued a press release urging residents to get vaccinated.<\/p>\n

The Colorado omicron case represents the third case in the United States after two prior cases in California and Minnesota.<\/p>\n

It is not certain where or when the variant first emerged, although Nigeria’s national public health institute said Wednesday<\/u> it had detected the variant in a sample it collected in October.<\/p>\n

Those infected by the new variant have suffered “very mild symptoms” so far, according to a South African doctor who first documented the variant.<\/p>\n
