She urged members of The Public to continue to take up the option of vaccine and booster injections and to follow health advice.
That there are currently 437 confirmed cases of Omicron in the UK.
A Downing Street official has said there are early signs the variant is more transmissible than The Delta Covid-19 strain.
Wales' health minister has said That would peak in January while, in Scotland, Covid rules as Omicron cases rise.
While scientists believe Omicron could spread more easily than Delta, and become the dominant variant in the UK, much is still unknown.
It could take weeks to understand how severe illness from the variant is and what it means for vaccine effectiveness.
In a statement, Northern Ireland 's chief medical officer said there was " no evidence at This Time of wider community transmission in Northern Ireland ".
" We Are awaiting further data on this new variant and the extent of the Public Health threat it represents.
" It is undoubtedly a cause for concern and has the potential to spread rapidly, adding significantly to the already severe pressures on health and social care services.
" We will continue to liaise closely with Public Health colleagues across these islands. "
Speaking to Bbc News NI, Sir Michael said it was " too early" to say how Omicron might Impact on Covid restrictions.

Sir Michael urged anyone travelling from the UK or Republic of Ireland into Northern Ireland to take a lateral flow test.

What's the difference between Omicron and other variants?Omicron is The Most heavily mutated version of coronavirus found So Far .
The variant has lots of different mutations That have not been seen before, and many That have.
A large number of them are on the spike protein of The Virus , which is The Target of most vaccines, and That is the main concern.
In standard PCR tests, Omicron has what is known as an " S-gene dropout" (which Delta has not, in most cases) and That gives a clue That it could be the new variant.
But not all " S-gene dropouts" will necessarily be Omicron - full genomic sequencing is needed to be sure.
What are the Symptoms of Omicron ?So Far , in South Africa , Most People infected are young and their Symptoms have been mild.
There is some suggestion That the variant could be causing some Slightly - including aches and pains, and no loss of taste or smell - But it's too early to say for certain.
