Let’s start season 6 for germs.COVID-19 still a problem to be solved for almost 3 years with the newest hybrid Omikron XE strain now. The World Health Organization (WHO) issued a warning a few days ago that it may breed as quickly as possible. Let’s learn the dangers for safety better.
What is the origin of the XE hybrid Omikron?
On March 31, 2022, the World Health Organization (WHO) issued a warning regarding the covid omicron hybrid. named for Covid Omicron XE which is infectiousCovid-19 BA.1 and coronavirus substituents BA.2 are mixed and can transmit 10% faster than the original BA.2 omicron.
for virus The XE hybrid Omikron was first spotted in the UK in January. More than 673 people have been infected in the UK so far, and the number of infections is growing close to BA. Including Hong Kong, two cases of omikron XE have been reported in Hong Kong, as well as our country where the first case of this strain has been found a few days ago.
Isn’t the Omikron XE scary?
Although the World Health Organization or WHO has issued an alert for this uncommon strain of Omicron, the speed of transmission of the virus. But he was relieved, in part, because in the investigations, OmikronXE was neither more or less severe than the BA.2 strain, nor was it immune to vaccination either. So I’m relieved that if our arm has a vaccine once morest BA.2 strains, it can definitely protect once morest XE strains.
In Thailand, Dr. Supakit Sirilak, Director-General of the Department of Medical Sciences came out to state that The hybrid XE omikron is still not a concern despite being a new species. This is because it is normal for the virus to be interbreeding or interbreeding. Including the information virologists indicate that the appearance of the XE virus strain is no different from the BA.2 strain, urging people not to panic while the vaccine is still preventable.
Although the name seems very scary and futuristic for Omikron XE hybrid But if we are allocated quality vaccines, we can guarantee a certain level of safety. And to be more sure, we also don’t forget to wear a mask, keep distance and wash your hands as well.
