The 5 most common symptoms of Omicron sufferers

Contrary to the symptoms of Covid-19, such as coughing, fever, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, diarrhea, and loss of smell, experts around the world have noted that cases related to the new Corona mutant “Omicron” do not always result in these symptoms. Affected people report symptoms similar to the common cold, and they may be accompanied by confusing symptoms, such as lower back pain.

In a report published by The Times, Dr.

Tim Spector, genetic epidemiologist and founder of ZOE Health, which runs a COVID-19 symptom tracking app and contains data on more than 4.7 million infected people: The five most common symptoms associated with Omicron are:

Runny nose, headache, tiredness, sneezing, sore throat.

In a few cases, it may be accompanied by weakness in the senses of smell and taste and back pain.

And Dr. Spector adds, explaining: “It can be said that the symptoms of the emerging Covid-19 have weakened with its mutation to the delta mutated and then to Omicron to become symptoms similar to colds.”

On her part, commented Dr.

Stephanie Stirling, an infectious disease physician at New York University Langone Health, said: “Reports have varied, but in general, the omicron variant behaves like the classic coronavirus that causes colds, so in risk areas (areas where omicron spreads) to everyone who develops respiratory disease or He had a cold, it was assumed he had Omicron.
