Australian scientists and doctors noted that so far there are no heavy cases of the disease among an omikron-strain coronavirus. This indicates that it should not be considered more dangerous than other varieties of infection. About it reports Bloomberg with reference to the statement of the chief doctor of Australia Paul Kelly.
“Among almost 300 cases of infection, which are observed in a number of countries around the world, the symptoms are rather soft, or they are not at all,” Kelly emphasized.
In this case, the absence of evidence of the risk of Omicron strains does not mean that he is completely harmless. In addition, while scientists did not find out how the existing vaccines against COVID-19 will cope with a new variety of virus.
Earlier, director of the Gamalei Center Alexander Ginzburg suggested that, perhaps, Oomikron, the incubation period would be about 12-14 days. If at the same time it will be highly disconnected, then it will be able to oust the delta strain and impact the population.
