👉Health officials report that Omicron has undergone more mutations and become more immune evasive. The World Health Organization reported in December that Omicron-descended variants are more adept in evading the human immune system. On December 21st, Maria Van Kerkhove, the technical lead for COVID-19 at the World Health Organization, said, "Omicron, the current version of concern, is the most transmissible form we have observed so far." About 540 Omicron mutations have been identified thus far, although only five are "under observation" for potential alterations or increases in occurrence, as noted by the WHO. Dr. Hélène Decaluwe, an immunologist and clinician-scientist, has stated that the increased frequency of re-infections is due to the fact that Omicron subvariants are able to avoid the immune system's ability to totally control it.✅ . . #covid19 #covid #canadacovid #covidnews #covidupdate #worldhealthorganization #canadahealthnews #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews
