Omicron: The New Contagion, The Latest Twist in the Pandemic | Nicole Zamignani
It’s been two years since the pandemic forced us to isolate ourselves, pivot, and even transform our lifestyles. We had no choice but to adapt and find ways to continue our lives despite the limitations COVID has caused us. As the cases go down and solutions arise, a new variant is becoming more prolific and has quickly spread with vengeance, leading to more uncertainty.
The Omicron variant goes around with its name sounding ‘ominous’. It spreads much easier compared to the original SARS-CoV-2 and other variants, plus, breakthrough infections to those vaccinated are likely to occur. But compared to the global situation last 2020, we can say that our defenses have improved and we are much wiser than before.
In this episode, Nicole Zamignani joins us again to talk about Omicron as the new contagious variant of COVID-19. This variant is spreading globally at the same time during the flu season in some countries. Listen and gain valuable information about the Omicron variant from Dr. Julieta Gabiola and Nicole Zamignani to keep you safe during this pandemic.
