OMICRON CASES COULD BE MILDER BUT VARIANT MAY NOT HIT EVERYONE THE SAME WAY...EXPERTS SAY

By Chandrayee Roy Choudhury, Canada:

Some of the earliest data from around the world suggests that many people infected with the Omicron variant of the novel coronavirus ended up with milder symptoms.

Some have described the sickness as being more like a cold, while others skip typical COVID-19 symptoms entirely.

But Canadian experts agree it is too soon to assume the variant will affect everybody the same way once it spreads through the population.

The advice remains the same: continue physical distancing, washing your hands, wearing a well-fitting mask, opening windows to improve ventilation and getting your vaccines and booster when you can.



"Stay vigilant"
