and cleared and everything has opened up in contra costa county. no problems reported here or for the rest of the map all the way into the south bay. >> thanks so much. the company is expected to go before the fda this week. >> once pfizer applies, regulators are not expected to take too long to sign off. omicron variant has been detected in at least 15 nations. >> officials say it's too early to make definitive statements about the new virus and it will be two or three weeks before we

know how dangerous it is. it has more than 50 mutations, compare that to the delta variant, which has fewer than 20. that could mean it's more transmissible. it's likely the vaccines have worked. >> like beta, like gamma, and even like the two that never really took off. given that what we know, it makes sense to get the booster shot as soon as people can. >> he also believes the variant is already in the united states. we have posted an explaining on nbcbayarea.com, and click on the trending bar at the top of our home page. from calls to defund police to cries to get more cops on the streets.

i'm morgan, and there's more to me than hiv. more love, more adventure, more community. but with my hiv treatment, there's not more medicines in my pill. i talked to my doctor and switched to fewer medicines with dovato. dovato is for some adults who are starting hiv-1 treatment or replacing their current hiv-1 regimen. with just 2 medicines in 1 pill, dovato is as effective as a 3-drug regimen... to help you reach and stay undetectable. research shows people who take hiv treatment as prescribed and get to and stay undetectable can no longer transmit hiv through sex. don't take dovato if you're allergic to its ingredients or if you take dofetilide. taking dovato with dofetilide can cause serious or life-threatening side effects. hepatitis b can become harder to treat while on dovato.

don't stop dovato without talking to your doctor, as your hepatitis b may worsen or become life-threatening. serious or life-threatening de effects can occur, including allergic reactions, lactic acid buildup, and liver problems. if you have a rash and other symptoms of an allergic reaction, stop dovato and get medical help right away. tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver problems, or if you are, may be, or plan to be pregnant. dovato may harm your unborn baby. use effective birth control while on dovato. do not breastfeed while taking dovato. most common side effects are headache, nausea, diarrhea, trouble sleeping, tiredness, and anxiety. so much goes into who i am. hiv medicine is one part of it. ask your doctor about dovato-i did. ♪♪
