The new Omicron variant of coronavirus has left people shocked. The pace of its progress is higher than all previous variants. Let me tell you that earlier the infection was spreading from the droplet that came out of the body while coughing or sneezing, although now even a slight gust of breath is enough to infect humans. Yes, recently an expert has warned Omicron to keep the world healthy. "Omicron alone is responsible for nearly 90 per cent of cases in the UK, and will soon overtake the Delta variant," says Peter Openshaw, a professor at the New and Emerging Respiratory Virus Threats Advisory Group.

Many studies have claimed to have mild symptoms from omicrons. According to an official UK report, the risk of hospitalization from omicrons is 50 to 70 per cent lower than other variants. He further claimed, "Now the virus has become so contagious that it can be transmitted by a gust of breath from an infected person and can easily be exposed to it. In view of all this, people will now have to be more vigilant than ever.'' Let me tell you all that more than 1,500 cases of omicrons have been reported in India so far.

At present, health authorities are constantly cautioning people due to rapidly spreading infections caused by omicrons across India. Maharashtra and Delhi currently recorded the highest number of omicron cases in India. Out of the total corona cases in Delhi, about 46 per cent are of Omicron alone. Tell you that omicron is not very serious and the symptoms are also very mild. But still, the cases are doubling in 4 days. The new cases that are being found have mild symptoms.
