Inside Edition for Wednesday, December 22, 2021
The speed with which the Omicron variant of COVID is spreading is staggering and scary. The United States had more than 650,000 new Omicron infections last week but as the variant surges, the FDA today approved an easy to take pill to treat Covid-19. Meanwhile, those still hoping to be with family for the holidays, getting tested in advance is a challenge and time is running out. And we all remember those early COVID patients, cruise ship passengers trapped at sea. A cruise ship just returned to Miami after a COVID outbreak on board. We spoke with two passengers who got sick on the trip and say the ship's nurse never gave them a COVID test. Plus, call it the silver cloud of this latest wave of COVID. If you've been tripled vaxxed and still get COVID like these two people, experts say you may become super immune. And there is growing outcry over the 110-year sentence given to a truck driver who killed four people when the brakes failed on his big rig. The judge says his hands were tied thanks to sentencing guidelines, but more than 4 million people have signed a petition saying that sentence has got to be changed.
