(ABC News)- WHO DG recommends canceling or delaying holiday events

World Health Organization Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on Monday recommended delaying or canceling holiday events.

«There is now consistent evidence that omicron is spreading significantly faster than the delta variant. And it’s more likely that people who have been vaccinated or have recovered from COVID-19 could be infected or re-infected,» he said.While everyone wants a return to normal, he said, the fastest way to get there is to make difficult decisions to protect ourselves and others.

«In some cases, that will mean canceling or delaying events,» he said. «But an event canceled is better than a life canceled.»
