More than half of the European populations are expected to be infected with the Omicron coronavirus variant within the next six to eight weeks, the World Health Organization's top Europe official said on Tuesday.

Europe saw more than 7 million newly reported Covid-19 cases in the first week of 2022, more than double over two weeks, the WHO's Europe director Hans Kluge told a news briefing.
