Updates on Omicron

It's unclear whether Omicron infection causes more severe disease than infections with other variations, such as Delta. According to preliminary data, hospitalization rates are rising in South Africa. However, this could be due to an increase in the general number of persons becoming infected rather than a specific Omicron illness. There is currently no evidence that the symptoms associated with Omicron are distinct from those associated with other variations. The first cases of infection were among university students, who are younger and had a milder condition, although determining the severity of the Omicron form will take days to weeks.

The Delta form, which is prevalent worldwide, can cause severe disease or death, especially in the most vulnerable persons, so prevention is always important. We are here to help you to updates on the travel guide
