Hossam Abdel Ghaffar, a spokesman for the Ministry of Health and Population, said: Corona vaccines remain the best form of protection once morest the virus and that unvaccinated people are at greater risk from the virus.
Hossam Hosni, head of the Scientific Committee to Combat Corona at the Ministry of Health and Population, explained that the drugs for the therapeutic protocol for Corona and its variants are available in all hospitals and are dispensed free of charge, and continued: The therapeutic protocol will be updated in its seventh version within hours, and new drugs will be added.
He continued: There are two new mutants of “Omicron” that led to an increase in numbers, they are called “B4-B5”, and there is a wrong and common confusion, which is that corona is one thing and the “Omicron” mutant is something else, and this is not true at all, as “Omicron” A mutant of the virus.
He said: The two new Omicron mutant “B4-B5” are characterized by an increase in proliferation and reproduction, but on the other hand, they attack the upper respiratory tract, and they attack the lungs only at a very slow rate.
