All eyes are now set on the Omicron variant regarding how the COVID pandemic is unfolding. It has become the dominant strain in the USA, and it keeps surprising doctors in one way or another.
DeseretNews reveals that there’s a new COVID symptom that those infected with Omicron should consider. But also, even if we don’t get the coronavirus, we all should be well aware of a new symptom that will surely take us by surprise.
Beware of night sweats!
Dr. John Torres, who is a senior medical correspondent for NBC News, declared for the “Today” show that people are dealing with a new strange symptom: night sweats.
The doctor believes that you must be ready for the worst if you feel sick. He declared the following, as quoted by Today.com:
So if you start getting sick, essentially you have to assume it’s COVID unless proven otherwise,
And by that I mean make sure you isolate yourself (and) get a test to make sure it’s not COVID.
The doctor also added, as cited by the same source:
You notice there’s a lot of overlap in those symptoms, and that’s why it can be so hard to tell the difference between all of them,
But there are a few differences.
The new Omicron variant is more infectious than other variants, according to what the doctors claim. There’s no wonder why the USA is now struggling with huge levels of infections with COVID: hundreds of thousands of infectious every day.
