Washington: Anthony Fowzie, a leading U.S. scientist and President Joe Biden’s chief health adviser, with an assessment of the spread of the Omicron scare in the world. Anthony Fawzi says the new variant of the corona virus, Omicron, is not more serious than the Delta variant. ‘There are a number of reasons why Omicon may be less intense. In South Africa, the ratio between the number of cases and the number of hospital admissions is lower than that of Delta, ”he said.
‘But it is important not to over-interpret these figures. It can take weeks for a serious illness to develop. In South Africa, where Omicron first reported in November, it is expected to take at least two more weeks for the disease to be confirmed.

‘Then when there are cases in other parts of the world, it may take longer to assess the severity. It is a virus that does not cause more serious illness and does not lead to a surge in hospital admissions and deaths. I don’t think the worst is yet to come, “he added.
