Professor Michael Baker is warning that every New Zealander will either get Omicron or know someone who gets it.
The Otago University epidemiologist told Newshub Kiwis have been "very removed from this threat" and he expected to see "tens of thousands of cases" over the next three or four months.
"We will see tens of thousands of cases and unfortunately several hundred deaths in the next three or four months.
I have no faith in these so called experts, they haven't been right once.
I dont trust any of them, especially that pink haired lady...
Its scaremongering at its finest.
Of course everyone will get it, thats a fact, but so does everybody get the flu or common cold.
NZ is lucky to have escaped the worst of the pandemic with the alpha variant, but with omicron its risk to health is dramatically reduced.
He is taking a fact (that you will likely get covid) and turning it into fear.
Whats the point of the vaccine? I know so many fully vaxxed people so petrified of catching this damn virus which in most cases the symptoms are not going to be much worse than the flu.
Why bother trying to scare all of us?
