In Indore, cases of its sub-variants BA.1 and BA.2 have now been documented. In the city, twelve cases with Omicron's sub-variant BA.2 have been discovered of which six are children.

Indore Health Department has expressed worry regarding this new variant

The BA.2 strain is the one that spreads the fastest. Its infection primarily affects the patient's lungs. The infection has also been discovered in the lungs of freshly arrived patients, ranging from 5% to 40%.

This strain is impacting the lungs

This strain differs from the coronavirus and Omicron in that it has a greater impact on the lungs. This strain is also known as the BA.2 sub-strain or the stealth i.e. hidden variety, and it has been discovered in over 40 nations.

This variant is impacting severely on the human's body

The lungs of a 17-year-old kid who was taken to Aurobindo Hospital with this infection were determined to be contaminated up to 40%. Two patients are in the ICU at the same time. These individuals must be admitted to the hospital and oxygen administered. Omicron BA.1 has been confirmed in four patients in addition to these.

The infection in the lungs is being exacerbated by BA.2

According to Ravi Dosi of Aurobindo Hospital, BA.1 was the first sub-variant of Omicron. BA.2 has now been assigned to this version. It did not have any lung involvement until January 6. After that, 12 more patients have arrived until today, all of them had BA.2 and have had up to 40% of their lungs infected. Worryingly, patients must be admitted as well as have oxygen applied to them. Two people are in the intensive care unit. Lung infection is a serious problem.

Patients who have received both doses of the vaccination, on the other hand, are safe. The BA.2 substrain's ability to survive the RT-PCR test is a pleasant surprise. More powerful waves are expected across Europe, according to Stealth Omicron.

BA.2 sub-strain is quickly expanding

The Omicron variety has three sub-strains, according to the World Health Organization (WHO): BA.1, BA.2, and BA.3. While the BA.1 sub-strain is the most common Omicron infection observed around the world, the BA.2 sub-strain is quickly expanding. BA.2, which is generated from the same strain identified as a 'variant of concern,' has been dubbed a 'variant under study' by international health experts.

According to WHO, the number of Covid cases in India has jumped by 150 percent in the last week.
