The entire world is attempting to protect itself from the new Coronavirus variation Omicron, while a Cyprus scientist has discovered a new strain of Coronavirus. Deltacron is the name given to a variant that is supposed to be a blend of Delta and Omicron variants.

In reality, according to one of the Jerusalem Post's investigations, Deltachron's genetic basis is comparable to that of the Delta variant, but it also contains mutations from the new Corona variant Omicron.
