Infection of an oomikron-strain coronavirus can be distinguished by characteristic symptoms of the disease. Such a way to identify infection has called an infectious disease specialist, vaccineologist from Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist in North Carolina Katherine Polyneg, RIA Novosti reports.
According to the infectiousnessist, several signs may be enough to understand what the person has become infected. Polneg noted that the characteristic symptoms of omikron infection are cough, nasal congestion, runny nose and fatigue. However, she emphasized, unlike Delta Stamma, patients with a new option of Cornavirus do not lose taste or smell.
“Even with light breakthrough infections, pain in the throat remains the most common symptom,” she added.
Specialist explained that researchers came to such conclusions during the study of the clinical picture of infected. The listed features may not be observed in all groups of the population, but they can alleviate the so-called independent detection of coronavirus, previously approved in the United States to the United States to control and prevent diseases.
Previously, doctors called a runny nose, cough, sore throat and fatigue the most common symptoms of the disease Omicron-strain coronavirus in children. According to Professor of the Royal College of London, Emma Duncan, concomitant signs of infection can be headaches, sneezing and high body temperature.
