Why you should take the sixth wave of COVID-19 seriously

Guest: Dr. Tim Sly, an epidemiologist and professor emeritus from the School of Public Health at Ryerson University

With Omicron subvariant BA.2 now dominant and others on the horizon, this is another sign that while we may be sick and tired of COVID-19, this disease does not listen to proclamations that it is over. Despite the lifting of mask mandates, experts say you should take precautions against this wave and it is something we need to take seriously.
