The government of two Caribbean nations have come together to ban the entry of any African citizen or any person with travel history to Africa. This comes after the World Health Organization (WHO) raised the alarm after a new COVID-19 mutant variant was discovered in Africa.
The new variant has been named Omicron; it is by far the most infectious variant of COVID-19. There are speculations that the current coronavirus vaccines are not effective on the new Omicron variant.
