¿Dónde surgió?

El primer caso se detectó en Sudáfrica en noviembre de 2021. El 26 de noviembre, la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) designó a Ómicron como una “variante de preocupación”. [{ "selector": ".yiohk-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": 1} ] }, { "selector": ".xivyq-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1000ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": 1} ] }]

¿Por qué es tan preocupante?

Las mutaciones de la variante Ómicron alteran el comportamiento del virus y hacen que se propague significativamente más rápido.

¿Cuáles son los síntomas de Ómicron?

Por ahora, no hay datos que indiquen que los síntomas de Ómicron sean distintos a los de otras variantes.

¿Las vacunas funcionan
contra Ómicron?

De acuerdo con la OMS, las vacunas contra COVID-19 ofrecen una protección significativa contra la variante reduciendo el riesgo de enfermedad grave y muerte.

¿Cómo puedo protegerme de la variante Ómicron?

La medida más importante que puedes adoptar es reducir tu exposición al virus.

¿Qué pasará
con esta variante?

Las autoridades sanitarias ya advirtieron que Ómicron se convertirá pronto en la cepa dominante del virus SARS-CoV-2, desplazando a la variante Delta.
