They can probably PCR for the parts specific to Omicron. Take samples from a representative sample and you can estimate the prevalence of Omicron.

not how PCR tests work and youd need an isolated sample of 'omicron' which they dont have because its the fucking common cold.

These are The Rules.

Posts do not need to be directly about Coronavirus, but can be about the latest scamdemic.
General vaccine/health posts belong in one of the Health subs. Move them or delete them or it will be done for you.
Image-only posts, including memes, are ok if on topic. If not, they get deleted.
This isn't a sub for your ramble or showerthoughts unless it's directly about the Scamdemic.
Low effort shitposts will be moved to and declared to be Coke. Posts that aren't appropriate for the sub but don't need to be deleted will just be moved.
Counterpoints (pro-vaccine, etc.) are fine, but you're probably going to be ripped, so make sure your facts are in order.
If you don't have a source, say so. Speculation and opinion are fine as long as it's stated as such.
This is a hot-button topic. Keep it civil or get kicked in the nuts. Your choice. No personal attacks, doxxing, or being an ass beyond the ass you already are.
If you took the vax, it sure does suck to be you. And I do mean it sucks cheesy horse dick and blows an upgoat.
