New Delhi: Due to the new variant of the coronavirus, Omicron, there is an outcry in the whole world. This new variant of Corona was first found in South Africa. The virologist here Wolfgang Preiser confirmed most of the Omicron. In an interview to the local media, Professor Wolfgang has given very surprising information about the rapidly increasing cases of coronavirus infection and the new variant. He has expressed the possibility of a large population being infected with Omicron. Professor Wolfgang has warned that, 'This new variant is very contagious. It is almost impossible to avoid infection with this variant. Earlier, he had predicted that soon its cases would decrease in South Africa. There the cases of Omicron are now declining rapidly. Professor Wolfgang has cautioned people that, 'Omicron may be less lethal than the earlier strain, but we are still seeing patients dying from this variant.' The first case of Omicron was found in November. Since then, its cases have increased twice as fast all over the world. Preliminary data has shown that Omicron causes only mild illness compared to other variants, but scientists are still warning that the pressure of increasing cases may put pressure on the health system. Professor Wolfgang said that, 'So far this common cold virus has not been proved, but the good news is that it is going in the same direction. However, the bad news is that it will be impossible to avoid infection with this variant.
