The combination of Delta mutations and Ομικρον which has been named Delmicron.
This is not his new executive coronavirus but a double attack from the two existing and main mutations, while it is the second new term after Florona, its combination Ομικρον by influenza virus.
As the rector of EKPA explains, Athanasios Dimopoulos to SKAI initially for the term Florona: "Let us clarify that this is not a new executive, this is an incident in Israel to a pregnant woman, who had not been vaccinated. He fell ill at the same time from coronavirus and influenza virus. This is something that the World Health Organization has said. The appeal is to those who have not been vaccinated for flu to run to be vaccinated because it is important to avoid simultaneous infection ".
The Rector of EKPA adds that we must respect them precautionary measures, which are the same for both viruses, 'mask, distances, hand washing. It's the precaution itself. "
As for the new term that comes into our lives and is called Delmicron, Mr. Dimopoulos stressed that cases of people who have been infected at the same time by the mutant strain Delta and the mutant strain Omicron have been described and it is something that needs supervision.
"At the moment we consider that the main problem we have regarding the hospitalizations is the mutated Delta strain. We were on duty yesterday, at 15 patient admissions, had features that resemble the Delta strain. They were elderly people who had not been vaccinated. While we have the Omicron that dominates, we still we have pressure in the hospitalizations from Delta ", Mr. Dimopoulos underlined about the current situation in the country's hospitals.
According to the professor of EKPA, an optimistic scenario would be the Homicron mutation that dominates in Greece and has greater transmissibility, but less likely to be hospitalized, to be able to protect those who are infectedBy more serious mutations such as the Delta. As he said, it remains to be seen whether someone who has Omicron disease, vaccinated or not, will in the future be protected from the coronavirus and other mutations.
