#covid #centaurusBA.2.75 Hot news again we know Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus has reappeared
The average person infected with the covid 19 virus can recover. However, some people will experience severe pain and need medical help.
Each person has a different response to COVID-19. Most people exposed to this virus will experience mild to moderate symptoms, and will recover without the need to be hospitalized.
Covid-19 infection was first discovered in the chinese city of Wuhan in late December 2019. The virus is contagious rapidly and spreads to other regions of China and most countries in the world, including Indonesia. This has led some countries to implement lockdown policies to prevent its spread.
Why Is It Called Omicron's Subvariant 'Centaurus'?
The Omicron subvariant name 'Centaurus' is not an official name given by the WHO. Instead it comes from Twitter user @xbitron1, who gave the name of the Omicron subvariant BA.2.75 to 'Centaurus' on July 1, 2022.
How Is It Different From Other Subvariants?
The omicron centaurus subvariant or BA.2.75 is believed to be easily transmitted quickly. In fact, it has the potential to become the dominant subvariant worldwide.
"What we're seeing with this new BA.2.75 is that Centaurus is in countries where vaccination rates are high, so it seems that this virus is capable of overcoming some pre-existing immunity," said a virologist at the University of Edinburgh.
This variant has no evidence that it can be cured easily. Some experts call BA.2.75 the least deadly subvariant
Symptoms of Omicron Centaurus Subvariant
Syahril also revealed that the symptoms complained by the three patients were still mild. According to him, the symptoms that appear are similar to those found in Omicron BA.4 and BA.5 patients.
"Yes (just like omicron symptoms BA.4 and BA.5)," he continued.
There are several symptoms that many BA.4 and BA.5 patients complain about, namely:
●Cough & Fever
●Colds
●Sore throat
●Headaches
●Shortness of breath
●Dizziness
●Nausea/vomiting
●Anosmia
Stay alert and stay healthy and comply with applicable health rules. Healthy eating and healthy and sports activities. With the aim of living healthy with the people we love our family.
