New York state has confirmed five cases of the omicron COVID-19 variant, Gov. Kathy Hochul said Thursday.
“Let me be clear: This is not cause for alarm. We knew this variant was coming and we have the tools to stop the spread,” Hochul said on Twitter.
She called on New Yorkers to get the vaccine and booster shots as well as to wear masks.
The new cases came hours after two other omicron cases were confirmed -- one in Minnesota and one in Colorado.
