As VT confirmed its first case of Omicron this weekend, Dr. Levine says it is even more important for people to act quickly: “Get vaccinated, get children age 5 and older vaccinated, and if you are due to get your booster shot, get it as soon as you can.”

It’s hard having a sick kid, but it’s important to keep them home from school until they get better. Get them tested if they have any COVID symptoms, may be a close contact, or have taken part in activities that could put them at risk. healthvermont.gov/testing
