Omicron Variant update:
As Omicron becomes the dominant variant of COVID-19 the areas infected tend to be the throat and bronchi whereas prior variants infected the lungs leading to more severe symptoms. With the omicron variant, symptoms tend to be more mild but the variant is also significantly more contagious.
Vaccine information:
We recommend that all patients receive the vaccine unless you have had a severe allergic reaction, especially to a vaccine or injectable or polyethylene gylcol.

What you should do to protect yourself:
The best way to prevent illness from COVID-19 is to avoid being exposed to the virus and use good hand hygiene. Common sense precautions that prevent the spread of flu will also help prevent the spread of
COVID-19
. Please do the following:
- Stay home if you are sick.
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
- Cover cough and sneeze.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom, before eating and after blowing your nose, coughing or sneezing.
- If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty.
- Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and hard surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.
