Omicron variant causes 'mild disease' - South African medical association says
New Covid Variant Omicron: South African medical association says Omicron variant causes 'mild disease' | JOHANNESBURG: The new Omicron variant of the coronavirus results in mild disease, without prominent syndromes, Angelique Coetzee, the chairwoman of the South African Medical Association, told Sputnik on Saturday. The WHO has dubbed it Omicron, the 15th letter of the Greek alphabet. "It presents mild disease with symptoms being sore muscles and tiredness for a day or two not feeling well. So far, we have detected that those infected do not suffer loss of taste or smell. They might have a slight cough. There are no prominent symptoms. Of those infected some are currently being treated at home," Coetzee said The official noted that hospitals have not been overburdened by Omicron patients and that the new strain is not been detected in vaccinated persons. We will only know after two to three weeks as there are some patients admitted and these are young people aged 40 and younger," Coetzee added.
