Dr. Hossam Hosni, Head of the Scientific Committee to Combat Corona at the Ministry of Health, said: “The new variant of Corona is no different from Omicron, but it is noticeable that the infection rate has increased in China and America and it is called “EG5.” He added that Corona as a pandemic has ended and we must live with its variants such as the role of the cold.

He added, during a phone call to the Hazrat Al-Muwaten program, presented by journalist Sayed Ali: “The new variant of Corona escapes immunity and has the ability to spread quickly, but there was no increase in the severity of symptoms in the event of infection.

Dr. Hossam Hosni warned people with chronic diseases and the elderly, saying, they must beware of the new variant of Corona and take appropriate precautions, adding that the new variant of Corona has not yet entered Egypt.
