What is the deltacron variant, and is it behind the rise in cases?
As far as we're aware, the symptoms for deltacron are the same as for omicron and previous variants. This time it's the "deltacron" variant, which, as the name suggests, is a combination of the delta and omicron variants. The World Health Organisation says it is aware of deltacron and is "tracking and discussing" it.
Coronavirus infection rates have started to increase in all boroughs of Greater Manchester again over recent weeks. This has included cases doubling in ...

One of these is the emergence of highly transmissible variants of concern, the latest being Omicron. The virus continues to evolve and the risk of future emergence of variants is high." What are the symptoms of Stealth Omicron (BA.2)? The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has said that a sub-lineage of Omicron, also known as BA.2 or "Stealth Omicron", is being treated as a "variant under investigation" after it was first discovered last December. Its chief executive, Dr Jenny Harries, said last week: "The increasing presence of the BA.2 sub-lineage of Omicron and the recent slight increase in infections in those over 55 show that the pandemic is not over and that we can expect to see Covid circulating at high levels." What are the symptoms of Deltacron? Deltacron, which was first discovered in January, has since been identified in the United States, France and parts of the UK. It is understood that the variant was created by someone infected with Delta and Omicron at the same time and their cells replicating together. According to the NHS the symptoms to look out for for Deltacron remain as they have been for other variants throughout the pandemic, but it is still being monitored. It is not currently known whether Stealth Omicron produces different symptoms to the versions of the coronavirus we have seen so far, but according to the ZOE Covid app, the most common symptoms being reported by patients at present are a runny nose, headache, sore throat and fatigue. The five most common symptoms of Omicron are: Sanjaya Senanayake, associate professor of medicine and an infectious diseases physician at Australian National University, said Omicron was more likely to cause a sore throat than Delta and less likely to be associated with the loss of taste or smell. These are: a high temperature – you feel hot to touch on your chest or back (you do not need to measure your temperature); a new, continuous cough – coughing a lot for more than an hour, or three or more coughing episodes in 24 hours (if you usually have a cough, it may be worse than usual); loss or change to your sense of smell or taste – you've noticed you cannot smell or taste anything, or things smell or taste different to normal. As well as this, some scientists claim part of the reason for this recent surge in cases could be down to new variants, or sub-variants, of coronavirus which have been identified. What are the symptoms of Omicron (BA.1)? In December and over the New Year, the UK was hit by a wave of infections caused by the Omicron variant, also known as BA.1, after it spread from southern Africa. It is understood to account for 98.8 per cent of all Covid cases since January 25. Here we have put together the signs to look out for in each of these latest variants.
Rates of Covid are increasing across the UK, and it is thought the Omicron variants are behind this.
Scientists stress that there is now substantial immunity in the human population against both variants, so there is no reason to think this will pose a danger to vaccines. According to the UKHSA, Covid's Omicron variant contains a genetic deletion in the "S" spike gene that makes it easier to track. While cases of Omicron have fallen dramatically since the January peak, this strain of the virus continues to be an active threat for billions of people - including more vulnerable people in the UK. What are the symptoms of Stealth Omicron (BA.2)? The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has said that a sub-lineage of Omicron, also known as BA.2 or "Stealth Omicron", is being treated as a "variant under investigation" after it was first discovered last December. Dr Susan Hopkins, chief medical adviser for UKHSA, said: “We now know that BA.2 has an increased growth rate which can be seen in all regions in England. “We have also learnt that BA.2 has a slightly higher secondary attack rate than BA.1 in households. However, in the stealth Omicron, there is no such gene drop out which makes it harder to detect. Professor Adrian Esterman, a former WHO epidemiologist, warned on Twitter that: "Omicron BA.2 is about 1.4 times more infectious than BA.1. The basic reproduction number (R0) for BA.1 is about 8.2, making R0 for BA.2 about 12. What are the symptoms of Deltacron? Deltacron, which was first discovered in January, has since been identified in the United States, France and parts of the UK. It is understood that the variant was created by someone infected with Delta and Omicron at the same time and their cells replicating together. She said that cases of the Omicron variant of the virus were “transmitting at a very intense level around the world”, including the BA.2 version of this variant which “is the most transmissible variant we have seen to date”.

"Croup is associated with other viruses, but Omicron's ability to infect the upper airways so efficiently may allow it to cause croup more than some other Covid variants. What are the symptoms of Omicron (BA.1)? In December and over the New Year, the UK was hit by a wave of infections caused by the Omicron variant, also known as BA.1, after it spread from southern Africa. Studies have also shown that Omicron infects and multiplies in the upper airways 70 times faster than the previous Delta variant. The five most common symptoms of Omicron are: Sanjaya Senanayake, associate professor of medicine and an infectious diseases physician at Australian National University, said Omicron was more likely to cause a sore throat than Delta and less likely to be associated with the loss of taste or smell. The World Health Organisation (WHO) dismissed the notion that the virus was “through it in the northern hemisphere until next winter” as it highlighted rising cases of the virus in the UK. Dr Maria Van Kerkhove, the WHO’s technical lead on Covid-19, also suggested that there are many reasons behind the increase in cases.
Infection rates are increasing across Yorkshire and the UK with the Deltacron, Omicron and the BA.2 strains all spreading.
It is not thought that this variant has different symptoms to previous types of Covid, therefore the symptoms to watch out for remain the same. One of these is the emergence of highly transmissible variants of concern, the latest being Omicron. The virus continues to evolve and the risk of future emergence of variants is high." What are the symptoms of Stealth Omicron (BA.2)? The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has said that a sub-lineage of Omicron, also known as BA.2 or "Stealth Omicron", is being treated as a "variant under investigation" after it was first discovered last December.

"If you develop a cough, fever, or change in sense of taste or smell, the public health advice remains that you should self-isolate immediately in order to protect others," said Dr Khaw.

What are the symptoms of Deltacron? Deltacron, which was first detected in January, has since been identified in the United States, France and parts of the UK. It is understood that the variant was created by someone infected with Delta and Omicron simultaneously and their cells replicating together. Early findings in Denmark suggest that the Stealth Omicron does not pose any serious risk to life and does not cause any severe symptoms, nor does it increase the risk of hospitalisation or death. The Wellcome Sanger Institute has calculated that the strain accounted for more than half (57%) of the 27,000 new cases recorded in England in the last week of February and is therefore currently the dominant strain of the virus. What are the symptoms of Omicron (BA.1)? In December and over the New Year, the UK was hit by the Omicron variant, also known as BA.1, after it spread from southern Africa. It is understood to account for 98.8% of all Covid cases since January 25. The five most common symptoms of Omicron are: Sanjaya Senanayake, associate professor of medicine and an infectious diseases physician at Australian National University, said that Omicron was more likely to cause a sore throat than Delta and less likely to be associated with the loss of taste or smell. As a result, it has raised questions as to whether symptoms vary between the strains or have different levels of contagiousness and severity. These are: a high temperature – you feel hot to touch on your chest or back (you do not need to measure your temperature); a new, continuous cough – coughing a lot for more than an hour, or three or more coughing episodes in 24 hours (if you usually have a cough, it may be worse than usual); loss or change to your sense of smell or taste – you've noticed you cannot smell or taste anything, or things smell or taste different to normal.
CORONAVIRUS has been through many changes since it was first identified. Currently there are three variants circulating in the UK, Omicron, BA.2, ...
