So touts a report from FoxNews (see video below) along with several other countries, this "swift" action is being taken. A new "highly contagious mutation" of COVID 19, named "Omicron," is spreading throughout South Africa, so President Biden has ordered travel restrictions from that region - effective Monday, November 29th. Today is Friday, November 26th - so WHY WAIT? Essentially all who want to leave that region have 3 days to leave, and if infected - bring the new variant with them! Could someone explain to me the logic in waiting and giving them time to leave the countries being affected? It seems if you're trying to lock them down, do it NOW - not give them time to figure out how to get out and spread the variant!
This kind of makes me want to say, "Come on, man!"

UPDATE - So, while Omicron IS much more contagious, the effect of this variant of COVID-19 is typically not as severe. Many report not feeling anything worse than cold or mild flu-like symptoms - FEW need to be hospitalized.
