Many people have lost their lives due to these variants of COVID-19.
Causative and Risk Factor:
The world is facing the new omicron variant explosion just before Christmas and needed just a few weeks to live up to alarming warnings about how incredibly contagious it is.
Just before the explosion of the Omicron variant, we were facing difficulties in the delta variant. Several nations have reported that the Delta variation generates more severe cases.
COVID-19 gets into your system by your mouth, nose, or eyes (straightforwardly from the airborne drops or from the move of the infection from your hands to your face). The virus moves to the mucous membrane in the back of your throat and the rear of your nasal passages. It binds to cells in the area, multiplies, and spreads into lung tissue. The virus then spread to all other parts of the body.
Some of the risk factors of these COVID variants are:
- Serious heart diseases
- High blood pressure
- Trouble in breathing
- Weak brain and nerve system
- Headache, Chest pain, and Sore throat
- Serious problem for people having asthma
Clinical Presentation:
COVID-19 can cause a wide variety of symptoms, from symptomless to severe sickness and death. Fever, cough, headache, shortness of breath, and throat pain are some of the common symptoms. COVID-19 patients with symptomless infection may have neutral clinical irregularities.
Severe sickness can strike healthy people of any age, although it is more common in adults who are older or have particular medical comorbidities. Severe illness has also been linked to specific demographic traits and test abnormalities.
Investigation:
Time is running short, according to scientists at the global health organization, to figure out how the epidemic started, as indicated by the fact that blood samples are being discarded and antibodies in the initial Covid-19 sufferers are fading to undetectable levels.
The fragments of COVID virus are detected by PCR test also known as
(polymerase chain reaction). Since the approval of PCR in February 2020, the PCR test has been going well for identifying COVID-19. It's accurate and trustworthy.
Coronavirus can also be detected by a blood test, stool test, and potentially in urine test.
At first COVID-19 cases were found in Wuhan with a serious respiratory problem.
But according to numerous reports Delta variant of the virus was firstly detected in India in late 2020 followed by the Omicron variant firstly found in Great Britain and a beta version of the Omicron variant found in South Africa.
These variants of COVID-19 are believed to be more dangerous, high risks, and more spread of cases in a short period of time.
Treatment:
Scientists are attempting to develop new treatments and testing current ones to determine if they can treat COVID-19. In the meanwhile, both at home and in the hospital, there are a variety of things that might help reduce symptoms.
Some of the treatments that can be done at home are:
- Wear a mask and use sanitizer every time you touch a thing
- Wash your hands regularly
- Keep distance from people
- Use a separate bedroom and if possible, use a separate bathroom
- Drink fluids like hot water and soup
- Take proper rest
If the condition is serious then contact your doctor and take proper medication for the prevention and cure of COVID-19.
Recent Updates:
Many parts of Omicron are being studied by researchers throughout the world, and the results of these studies will be shared when they become available.
It's still unclear whether Omicron infection produces more severe illness than infections caused by other variations, such as Delta.
WHO is studying with scientific partners to determine the impact of this variation on current remedies, such as vaccination.
Delta virus causes more damage and is spreading faster than any variant around the globe.
It is found that the Omicron variant of COVID-19 spreads easily even if the person is vaccinated and may not have any symptoms.
