The Office of National Statistics in the United Kingdom revealed two new symptoms of the new “jn.1” Corona variant, according to a report published on the timesofindia website.
The report explained that the two symptoms of the new coronavirus variant “JN.1” are a problem with sleep and anxiety, as the latest data issued by the Office of National Statistics indicated that it revealed, in addition to the usual symptoms previously reported by people infected with Corona, such as runny nose, cough, headache and weakness, it said. Some said they suffered from sleep problems and anxiety as well.
The report indicated that other symptoms of the Corona virus are similar to those that appeared in previous waves of infection, as they include fever or chills, cough, shortness of breath, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, loss of the sense of taste and smell, sore throat, congestion, and runny nose. Nose, nausea, diarrhea.
The report added that the Corona pandemic was associated with increased levels of stress and anxiety, which led to an increase in sleep disorders, and high stress and anxiety can lead to insomnia, which makes it difficult for individuals to sleep or continue to sleep.
Following information related to the epidemic, health concerns, and lifestyle changes contribute to disrupted sleep patterns. In addition, the virus itself may cause respiratory problems, discomfort, or fever, which further affects sleep quality.
Adequate sleep is crucial for a healthy immune system, so addressing insomnia associated with the emerging coronavirus is essential for overall health during these difficult times.
The new Corona variant, JN.1, is spreading at a faster pace, and Dr. Thomas Rousseau, professor and head of the Department of Infectious Diseases at the University of Buffalo in New York, described it as deceptive, as JN.1 has a mutation in the spike protein that appears to make it more immune and evasive than the Corona virus, and he said: “There is some inferential data from laboratory results that suggest JN.1 may be more infectious.”
It is worth noting that last December 19, the World Health Organization classified the JN.1 variant as a variant of concern, and JN.1 was traced as part of BA.2.86, the original lineage that was classified as a variant of concern.
