Not just hoarseness, runny nose and headache – Omikron infection can cause serious symptoms to your health. A list has been made of symptoms that may indicate that the infection is severe. Check out the symptoms that should be worrisome. What do you do when you suspect you have the coronavirus?
Different type of omicron coronavirus (Omicron) is spreading around the world faster and faster. The first case of Omikron infection was discovered on November 11, 2021 in Boston, and today it is known that Omikron is likely to replace the delta variant, which was prevalent until recently.
More and more people are affected by Omikron, and the list of symptoms caused by Omikron is increasing. Some of them are really dangerous.
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has identified five symptoms that indicate a person with Omicron may need urgent medical attention.
Symptoms to be concerned about:
- Breathing problems
- constant pain or pressure in the chest,
- sudden delirium-like confusion (agitation, difficulty concentrating, disorientation)
- Pale, gray, or bluish skin, lips, or nails
- Inability to wake up (difficulty waking up) or stay awake.

Echo Richards embodies a personality that is a delightful contradiction: a humble musicaholic who never brags about her expansive knowledge of both classic and contemporary tunes. Infuriatingly modest, one would never know from a mere conversation how deeply entrenched she is in the world of music. This passion seamlessly translates into her problem-solving skills, with Echo often drawing inspiration from melodies and rhythms. A voracious reader, she dives deep into literature, using stories to influence her own hardcore writing. Her spirited advocacy for alcohol isn’t about mere indulgence, but about celebrating life’s poignant moments.
