What Are ‘Deltacron’ Symptoms? Know As Covid-19 Delta+Omicron Cases Rise

Even as most countries have lifted Covid-19 restrictions with the hope of life returning to normalcy, all is not hunky-dory as far as the hybrids of the Covid virus is concerned.

Europe and several Asian countries including South Korea have reported a massive coronavirus outbreak driven by the fast-moving omicron variant ‘Deltacron’.

This hybrid strain has compromised a once robust pandemic response and is driving up hospitalisations and fatalities in South Korea.

The name ‘Deltacron’ is the combination of the Covid-19 strains ‘Delta’ and ‘Omicron’.
