The first patient with "omicron" was a child who was vacationing with his parents in Turkey.
“During this time, imported cases from the Dominican Republic and Thailand have been added.
These are five cases - three adults and two children.
All adults are vaccinated,” Kurganova said.
According to her, the disease in adults occurs in an "erased" form, in children - in the form of an acute respiratory infection.
Earlier, the first case of infection with the omicron strain COVID-19 was recorded in Primorsky Krai.
