A new strain of the OMICRON coronavirus was discovered in the world, and the WHO immediately sounded the alarm. Is it true that he is called as dangerous as he is and what are the main symptoms of Omicron?
Dozens of countries have begun closing their borders to visitors from South African countries. And all because a few days ago, the OMICRON coronavirus had a record of a new, highly contagious strain. It was first discovered in South Africa, but only a few days later the strain was already fixed in Botswana, Hong Kong, Israel, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Great Britain, and Australia.
Experts point out that this strain is more contagious than Delta, and can be just as dangerous to humans, for example, the Ebola virus.

The WHO noted that the Omicron strain has a large number of mutations and is more contagious than all the strains of the previously identified coronavirus.
Omicron strain symptoms:
The symptoms of OMICRON are somewhat different from those of other strains of coronavirus. Angelica Cudge, a practicing doctor in South Africa, talks about them. Thus, the main symptoms of Omicron are:
Acute fatigue;
High temperature;
Accelerated heartbeat.
In this case, mainly young people are sick. There is no loss or change in taste and aroma with OMICRON.
Why was the strain named OMICRON?
At the beginning of the COVID-19 epidemic, the WHO decided to name a new strain of the coronavirus in Greek letters to avoid identifying the virus with a specific region, country, or nationality. Omicron (Ο, ο, Greek όμικρον) is the 15th letter of the Greek alphabet.

Concerns about 'Omicron' have spread to Europe and America as well. The World Health Organization has also expressed some concerns. Because they say, this species may not have any symptoms. Therefore, the WHO is being told to adhere strictly to the Covid rules without such relaxation.
