I've read that the standard fast-test we use here in the USA primarily for identifying COVID does not work well for the Omicron variant.... it only shows up reliably in PCR tests. So the fact is that we do already have Omicron here, and it's probably throughout the States, but we just aren't diligently testing for it. I'm sure THAT's going to go well...
