Deltacron

The World Health Organization recently warned that there is a new COVID-19 variant, deltacron which is a combination of the previously identified delta and omicron varieties, that is spreading quickly throughout Europe.

According to the organization’s statement on Wednesday, the variant has been discovered spreading in France, Holland, and Denmark. It is referred to as “deltacron” by some. The WHO also believes it has identified two cases in the United States. The WHO plans to release a report of its findings shortly.

Just weeks before the second anniversary of the date on which the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic, the WHO made the worrying announcement. Organizations have issued grave warnings that the new variant of the virus has the potential to become a major problem in Europe as well as the United States. Some experts, however, do not seem to be so concerned.

“The fact that there isn’t a lot of it and the fact that even the two cases we saw in California were different suggests that it’s not going to rise to the level where it’s considered to be a variant-of-concern,” says William Lee, chief science officer at Helix, which sequences COVID-19 samples.

Generally, the number of deltacron cases is low, even in countries where some person-to-person transmission has been detected. It has been stated that Lee does not even expect the variant to merit its own name based on Greek letters.

Whereas cases and deaths of most strains of the virus, both in the United States and most of Europe, have generally been declining, the highly infectious omicron variant remains the dominant strain.
