The Omicron / Brataj variant calms public opinion and shows the information you should all know: I see no room for panic, similar to the common flu. What to do on day 5 of symptoms

The latest version of COVID 19, Omicron has alerted the entire globe due to the high level of transmissibility. Regarding the situation in our country, the director of the National Emergency Skënder Brataj also reacted. In an interview with Fax News he talked about the symptoms and the care we need to show but according to Brataj it is not the place to spread panic.

By dr. Brataj says that panic should not spread, as Omicron is no more dangerous than other previous COVID 19 mutations. He even sees them with reservations and new restrictions as according to him infection with the new variant is inevitable. "This variant has the symptoms of a common flu", he says while giving the advice for the treatment in the apartment.

"No matter what measures you take, it is impossible to block the virus. We say Omicron is new, but it's in the nature of viruses to have mutations. Omicron is disturbing and there are infected persons, there is not enough data to draw conclusions. It is not paved with Omicron, but it must be said that it has a feature that the more transmissible the virus the less dangerous it is. The South African doctor who discovered it said that out of 17 patients diagnosed, 13 were asymptomatic. There are mild signs of sore throat, especially with runny nose, nasal secretions and more similar to seasonal viruses and shorter duration than COVID 19.

High transmissibility does not bother me, the more deadly the virus the easier it is to isolate, so COVID 19 will pass everyone with natural or artificial immunity. We have to follow the rules for hygiene, use of masks and it seems like the less medication they take, the more lives they save. Infected people should be put to a medical examination not earlier than 3-5 days with symptoms and do blood tests, dedimer, ferritin and PCR and seeing that there are indicators of infection can be added antibiotics, but not in cases where we find that we just have a fever 38 degrees. The other good weapon is the vaccine. "

Meanwhile, regarding the tightening of the measures, he said: The existing measures were repeated and the deadlines were given for the public administration as well as for the medical staff, police officers, teachers who provide public service and maybe it was misinterpreted because the third dose does not enter the deadlines. January 4. Europe is taking much more austerity measures than we have seen here. "Germany is in a situation that is sending patients abroad."
