WHO told about expectations due to spread of Omicron strain

The World Health Organization (WHO) expects data on the growth of the number of hospitalization and deaths in connection with the spread of the Omicron-strain of coronavirus. RIA Novosti reported this in the press service of the organization.

In WHO, it was noted that the information that countries can be provided by exchanging data on hospitalized patients is necessary for a complete understanding of the clinical picture infected with the new option.

“Many countries still have no opportunities for a consistent analysis of samples of all cases of infections or deaths, so information about deaths caused by a specific option may be difficult to submit exactly. More detailed information about the severity of Omikron is expected in the coming weeks For a temporary delay between an increase in the number of cases and an increase in the number of severe cases and deaths, “they spoke in the press service.
