The new variant of the Corona Omicron has caused worldwide panic. This variant of Corona is spreading very fast from one country to another. Experts say this is the third wave of the corona.
The number of people infected with Omicron is increasing worldwide. The virus was found in South Africa late last year. That's when scientists began testing this variant. It can be seen that many changes have taken place in the spike protein of this virus. The virus became deadly because of changes in spike proteins. So scientists warned everyone about this virus.
Scientists started research after the spread of Omicron. How did this virus spread so fast in humans?One reason for this is mutations in spike proteins. Apart from this, the experts were busy looking for other reasons. Researchers at Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine in Japan recently found out where Omicron can live for a long time.
Omicron can survive longer on plastic and skin than other variants of the Corona. It is this survival ability that sets Omicron apart from other types of corona.
Where does Omicron live for how long?
The main strain of corona on plastic can survive 56 hours, alpha 191.3 hours, beta 156 hours, gamma 59.3 hours, delta 114 hours. And Omicron can live 193.5 hours.
In this case, the original corona virus on the skin can survive 8.6 hours, alpha 19.6 hours, 19.1 hours beta, 11 hours gamma, 16.8 hours delta and omicron 21.1 hours.
Due to this activation, Omicron is spreading fast. So experts say everyone should be careful. Absolutely no movement without a mask.
