Dr. Ashish Jha, head of the White House Covid task force, said the U.S. has made major strides in fighting Covid since the early days of the pandemic. “If you are up to date with your vaccines and if you get treated if you have a breakthrough infection, your risk of dying from Covid is now close to zero,” Jha said. Health officials are expecting Covid infections to increase in November through January as they have every fall and winter since the pandemic began. Jha said everyone ages 12 and older should get their new omicron Covid boosters by Halloween.
