New disease symptoms caused by Omikron variant – these signs indicate infection
One observation that scientists have made during the pandemic is the change in symptoms in covid 19 disease. That’s because they apparently vary depending on the variant of the virus. Again, there are said to be slightly different symptoms with the new Omicron variant, which is spreading at breakneck speed. People should now pay particular attention to these signs.
These symptoms occur with the Omikron variant
From infection to the first symptoms pass the coronavirus on average about 5 days. After that, most patients then complain of cough, runny nose, fever and sometimes disturbance of sense of smell or taste. But the Omikron variant has now apparently changed the symptoms. Scientists have namely found, according to the British newspaper “Daily Star”, that the health data of the ZOE COVID study app in the UK differ in the Omikron-VAriante. As a result, typical cold symptoms such as a runny nose, sneezing, headache, fatigue and sore throat are now more common.
Experts strongly advise caution!
For this reason, the researchers advise people with these symptoms to isolate themselves in any case first and also to have a test for Covid-19 made. In addition, the researchers have found, to all appearances, that infection with the omicron variant proceeds without loss of sense of smell or taste.
