Full vaccination levels are apparently stalled around 60% in the US
and other regions with signifigant reactionary movements.

The increased transmissibility of omicron variants have contributed
to the rise in detections, world-wide, after Nov 2021. So far, no
increase in mortality is associated with this variant.
