Fauci: “No Doubt” There Will be Breakthrough Infections with the Omicron Variant

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, says there’s “no doubt” that fully vaccinated people will have breakthrough infections from the Omicron Covid variant. A study from the National Institutes of Health shows a third dose of Moderna’s Covid-19 vaccine offers protection against the variant that’s 20 times better than the antibody of just two doses. CNN’s Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta tells Anderson Cooper just how important boosters are in the fight against both Delta and Omicron variants. Plus, President Joe Biden visited Kentucky to assess the damage from the deadly tornadoes and storms that devastated the area last weekend. Multiple states are in the path of another intense storm system moving from the Rockies into the Plains that is producing tornadoes and damaging winds. CNN Meteorologist Tom Sater gives AC360 an update on the severe weather and what states are in the path.
