Amidst the increasing cases of Omicron around the world, scientists have given many warnings. Experts say Omicron will not be the last variant of Corona. The faster the cases of infection increase, the faster the risk of the arrival of its new variants will also increase. In the report of The Telegraph, Boston University epidemiologist Leonardo Martinez has said many shocking things. According to Leonardo, the infection is increasing rapidly. This will affect Omicron. This will cause mutation in this virus.
If you understand in easy language, then it will make many changes inside itself. After this change, a new variant can be made and which can be even more dangerous. Omicron was found in November and it spread rapidly, says Leonardo. Research has also proved that Omicron can spread infection four times faster than Delta.
If the situation remains the same then-new variants will be born.
Leonardo says Omicron infection is also happening in those people who have got both doses of the vaccine. Johns Hopkins University epidemiologist Dr. Stuart Campbell has also spoken on the increasing cases of Omicron. Dr. Stuart says, if the cases of infection increase continuously and their cycle continues for a long time, then new variants will be born.
If Delta and Omicron mutate, the situation will be scary.
Dr. Angelique Coetzee, who was the first to discover Omicron, also said many important things while talking to the Indian Express. If Delta and Omicron mutate themselves, the situation will be dire, he said. There is one more thing that is disturbing, that is the antibiotics given to the patients of virus infection in the epidemic. In this way, irresponsible use of antibiotics amid infection will lead to a bacterial epidemic, which can lead to death.
He said, people, are getting infected with Omicron, but are also recovering. Don’t go by this positivity rate of the virus. Instead, see how many people were admitted to the ICU. Understand what is the death rate of those who died due to corona worldwide.
She says, if you did not get the vaccine or you are already battling a disease, then your risk of becoming seriously ill is also high.
Learn from the statistics of where Omicron was found
Corona’s new Omicron was found in South Africa. On how the situation was created due to Omicron, he said, it is clear from our data that every third patient suffering from Omicron is in critical condition and is in the hospital. Till December 17, 23 thousand cases were being reported daily. Of these, the condition of 528 patients was very critical and 7900 were admitted to the hospital.
