2. We've seen many vaccinated people getting infected with the #OmicronVariant, but cases seem to be mild
3. We have spare be capacity in both the private and public health sectors

SA is disappointed in the hypocrisy of nations such (e.g. UK, US) who sing our praises for our ability 2 detect the #OmicronVariant so fast and being transparent but who then implemented travel bans. That is counterproductive. We thank nations who have not followed that path.
