New Variant Is ReinfectingThe COVID-19 Infected People Easier

Each people in this world know the word Corona, as it become a reason for plentiful deaths and abundant people's suffering. Not just the name, the coronavirus has spread to all countries of the world. The latter part of 2021 has reduced the complications caused by the coronavirus. But the end part of 2021 had started a new chapter with a new virus variant similar to Corona. So don’t relax that pandemic is over. Check this page to know why you need to be safe, though you were vaccinated to prevent yourself from coronavirus.

Detection Of New Virus

The variant B.1.1.529 was detected on 26  November 2021 and named Omicron by the Technical Advisory Group on Virus Evolution (TAG-VE) of the WHO organization. There is evidence that Omicron has several mutations. Omicron's impact depends on its behavior, such as how it spreads and the severity of illness due to this virus.

Findings Of Virus Will Be Shared Further After Studies

The Omicron was found in South Africa. Researchers worldwide, along with South Africa, are doing research studies to understand the Omicron aspects better. Hence, the Omicron virus details will be shared further when they are found.

Not Clear About Transmissibility

The transmissible feature of the Omicron is not clear yet while compared to the spreads of the other coronavirus variants such as Delta. South Africa is getting more positives for the Omicron. However, epidemiologic studies are going on to find either the raising reason is Omicron or other aspects.

Symptoms Of Omicron

There is no loss of taste or smell, and the extreme drop in oxygen saturation level has been found in Omicron infected people. Extreme tiredness has been detected as the symptom of Omicron. It is not yet clearly stated that the new Omicron variant could cause severe infections than other variants, including the Delta variant. It is also not sure that a previously injected vaccine will prevent you from a new variant.

Need Weeks To Spot The Test, Treatment, And Severity Of Illness

The younger individuals who got infected had experienced the mild disease. Hence it takes more days to weeks to detect severity levels and increase complications due to Omicron. The earlier and widely used PCR tests are preferred for detecting the infection due to Omicron similar to other variants.

If the Omicron symptoms are effective than COVID-19, then in addition to IL6 Receptor Blockers and Corticosteroids, other treatments will be given for patients to manage the symptoms of Omicron. The studies are going on to find the treatments for Omicron and the studies about infection detecting tests. The research about detecting tests is going on to find other types of tests such as rapid antigen detection are valuable for detecting Omicron.

ReinfectThe COVID-19 Infected Person Easily

The preliminary evidence states that people who have been infected with COVID-19 previously have an increased risk of getting infected with Omicron. As World Health Organization is working for understanding the variant's potential impact with the technical partners and for finding vaccines for reducing chances of severity such as death and disease due to Omicron
