New strain of coronavirus spreads rapidly across Europe: what are the symptoms.

A new variant of the coronavirus called Nimbus, which is a variant of Omicron, could lead to an increase in cases in June-July, at the start of the tourist season. Experts warn that this strain spreads even at high temperatures, which distinguishes it from the flu.

In Germany, Nimbus began to spread actively at the end of March and by the beginning of May accounted for 16.7% of the total number of coronavirus cases. Fortunately, the overall infection rate remains low for now, and the situation is not currently very alarming. This is reported with reference to the Robert Koch Institute and DW.com.

“There are no signs that patients with Nimbus experience severe forms of the disease, and vaccines continue to remain effective,” the experts note.

The new variant NB 1.8.1 has already started spreading in Asia since March. Recently it was detected in Europe, particularly in France. Also, in May, there was news about an increase in Covid-19 cases in Asia, including Hong Kong and Singapore.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, former chief epidemiologist of the US, spoke about his role in implementing social distancing rules and other measures to combat Covid-19.

The emergence of the new coronavirus variant Nimbus raises concerns among experts, as it could lead to a new wave of infections in the summer, especially during the tourist season. Despite the spread of this strain, detailed research and safety measures remain crucial to curb the spread of the virus.
