Why to Attend?
-
In India also, the new COVID variant continues to pose 'very high' risk in the form of the third wave and posing serious threats & potential challenges to both human life and healthcare. The rapid surge in the number of Omicron cases has become a major source of concern.
-
As the higher risk of this virus is evolving so it is imperative to understand that we all need to take collective measures and necessary precautions to prevent the further spread of Omicron. The government is reiterating and urging people to abide by COVID norms and appropriate behavior.
-
Omicron variant is prevalent among both the non-vaccinated and vaccinated populations. However, the latter are more likely to report milder symptoms. A very large number of people have received immunity either because of vaccination or due to natural infection, hence, the developed antibody levels have high efficacy against all types of viruses including a new variant, Omicron. Amid Omicron scare, there is no need to panic, and to stay alert & vigilant.
The medical fraternity and scientists are closely keeping an eye on the developments of new variants including symptoms associated with it. It is evident that timely detection and correct management of such critical infections may go a long way in effective treatment to save a precious life. Now, we have many new tools including vaccination and booster dose to prevent and treat Covid-19.
