OMICRON: The ‘loud’ Symptom Happening One of Five in Fully Vaccinated

As Omicron spreads throughout the UK, the number of symptoms reported by people who test positive has increased.

The three significant symptoms of Covid-19, according to the NHS, are a high fever, a persistent cough, and a loss of smell and/or taste.

Other symptoms, such as recurrent sneezing, have also emerged.

However, experiencing a burst of loud sneezes may happen for various causes, and the best advice is to test frequently.

However, according to the Daily Express, it has been identified as one of five Omicron symptoms that are ‘especially’ manifesting among the fully vaccinated.

Omicron has been shown to be very contagious; however, it has caused a milder disease than Delta and its ancestors.

Growing herd immunity and the effectiveness of the vaccine rollout have helped in this.

Tracking New Symptoms

Professor Tim Spector, the leading scientist on the ZOE Covid Study, which has tracked the pandemic’s migrations via millions of app users, wrote in newsGP that Omicron is carrying on the Delta pattern with a variety of additional symptoms.

According to him, the appearance of the Delta variant coincided with a shift in the most commonly reported symptoms, with cold-like symptoms such as a runny nose, sore throat, and persistent sneezing becoming more common, as well as a headache and cough, particularly in people who had been vaccinated.

He added about Omicron. It’s creating symptoms that are much more like a typical cold, especially in those who’ve been vaccinated, and less overall systemic symptoms, such as nausea, muscular aches, diarrhea, and skin rashes.

The following were the top five symptoms reported in the ZOE app:

1. Runny nose
2. Headache
3. Tiredness (either mild or severe)
4. Sneezing and a sore throat

Prof Spector and his colleagues performed the first examination of symptom data from positive patients in London, which had a greater rate of Omicron at the time than other places.

Only half of those with Covid exhibited any of the typical three symptoms of fever, cough, or loss of smell, according to the ZOE team.
