Covid: Omicron lockdown not needed for now, Biden says

The US president urged people to get vaccinated and
wear masks amid concern over the new Covid variant
US President Joe Biden has called the Omicron Covid-19 variant a "cause for concern, not a cause for panic" a day after it was detected in North America.

He said he saw no need for a new lockdown "for now... if people are vaccinated and wear their masks".

Cases have been found in Canada, and the US has imposed travel bans on eight southern African countries.
