German Health Minister expects "massive" fifth coronavirus wave
German Health Minister Karl Lauterbach, a former epidemiology professor famed for his bearish COVID-19 forecasts, said he expected the omicron variant of the coronavirus to unleash a "massive fifth wave" of the pandemic.
 
He added during a visit to the region of Lower Saxony that Germany had to prepare for a challenge "that we have never seen in this form before".
