Omicron is wreaking havoc around the world. The number of victims is increasing. The new wave of Omicron has raised the concern of the world’s scientists several times in the midst of infection by Delta species of COVID. The graph of omicron growth is very high. The rate of infection is jumping day by day. The World Health Organization (WHO) has said that Omicron will strike like a tsunami. However, experts consider that this crisis will turn to be a ‘boon’, it will provide herd immunity.

The Omicron variant has already been labeled “alarming” by the World Health Organization (WHO). Top scientist of the World Health Organization, Dr. Soumya Swaminathan says that there are ways to prevent this highly contagious species of COVID. This wave of the new epidemic can be controlled if all the countries of the world work together.

Swaminathan says that vaccines are now the only way to stop Omicron. She said that there are multiple vaccines for COVID in all countries of the world. If one does not work, the other will be effective. The best vaccines are made in different formulas. So, there should be no reason to be worried about. The faster the vaccination process, the faster it will be possible to control this new variant. If most of the citizens of a country get two doses of the vaccine, herd immunity will be created. The speed of infection will decrease.

Scientists say that the virus is constantly evolving. The Omicron variant has mutated to 50 different types. Its spike protein has already changed the amino acid code 30 times. The rate of infection is also increasing.

Scientists and physicians have been saying from the beginning that the symptoms of this new strain of Coronavirus are getting milder with the Omicron attack. In this condition, the more the infection spreads, the more antibodies will normally be produced in the body. The grim picture of the COVID epidemic will slowly fade. Infectious disease experts say that if one suffers from Omicron, one will get natural immunity against Coronavirus. The higher it is, the stronger the defense will be.

A medical researcher says that although Omicron is actually a new strain of the virus, it works like a natural vaccine. This vaccine could not be made artificially by the world’s leading pharma companies. That is what nature has made.

So far the information received about Omicron, sufferers did not have to be admitted to special hospitals. They are recovering at home, they are not requiring oxygen. What is more important is that they are not having difficulty in breathing. None of the horrific symptoms of coronavirus that have killed one after the other was observed in Omicron. Rather herd immunity is being created in the body.

The dangerous delta strain will become weak due to Omicron. Doctors say that as Omicron grows, it is not too late for hard immunity to develop. In the next 2-3 months, the whole world will be able to defend against coronavirus in a natural way.

Another infectious disease specialist says that if anybody is infected after vaccination, or if the vaccine is given after coronavirus infection occurs, Omicron will provide the added immunity. Many people will survive from death. So, there is nothing to worry about this viral strain unnecessarily. However, everyone has to be aware of and maintain COVID rules.

According to research, this viral strain is almost three times more contagious than the most terrifying Delta variant. So the more it spreads, the more the Delta will be cornered, according to the natural law. The new strain Omicron has come with a replacement in the spike protein of coronavirus. That is why it is so contagious. However, it does not have the special ability to overwhelm the patient. The patient will not be seriously ill even if infected. A large part of doctors does not see the reason for the extra concern about Omicron.
