Genoa – About the new Covid variant renamed ‘Omicron 2’ “we still know very little and we must not be alarmed, it is a sub-variant of Omicron. It has most of the characteristics of the original so it should not alarm us because vaccines are not punctured by Omicron 2 either since they weren’t pierced by the original Micron. The concept remains that the unvaccinated may have more problems than the immunized but we know well, from Omicron, that the natural disease protects us against the most serious forms “.
So Matteo Bassetti, director of the Infectious Diseases Clinic at the San Martino hospital in Genoa, comments on the first signals coming from Northern Europe on a sub-variant of Omicron (BA.2) which is gaining momentum.
