Top US pandemic advisor Anthony Fauci has acknowledged a Covid “testing problem” as the Omicron strain overwhelms the nation, and he vowed to make more tests available to Americans next month, AFP reports.

“One of the problems is that that's not going to be totally available to everyone until we get to January, and there are still some issues now of people having trouble getting tested,” Fauci told ABC talk show “This Week.”

“But we're addressing the testing problem,” he added, saying it should be corrected “very soon.”
