Angelique Coetzee, a doctor from South Africa, listed the symptoms of the “Omicron” strain, the British service of The Telegraph informed.

According to the specialist, suspicions of mutation of the pathogen arose due to the frequent visits of patients with unusual manifestations of COVID-19. In particular, the visitors were young people who complained of a strong feeling of tiredness, as well as a six-year-old child with a fast heartbeat and high fever.

At the same time, none of the patients had any loss of taste or smell. The main symptom is fatigue.

Earlier, we reported that the African “Omicron” strain is already in Russia, the source of its spread may be Russian tourists who have visited Egypt, Senator Vladimir Krugli said.
