A Kiwi epidemiologist is urging calm over the emergence of the 'Omicron' variant of COVID-19, saying there's no solid proof it's as bad as the headlines would have us believe - yet.

It has many more mutations too - including on the spike protein - linked to increased transmissibility and raising concerns it could render vaccines less effective.

NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg warned Russia Friday (local time) that any attempt to invade Ukraine would have costs, as concern mounts about a Russian military buildup near its former Soviet neighbour's borders.
Ukraine says Moscow kept about 90,000 troops near their common border following massive war games in western Russia earlier this year. The Ukrainian Defence Ministry said units of the Russian 41st army remain near Yelnya, about 260km north of the border.
