The number of new mutations throughout the genome of SARS-CoV-2.
Real world data on the rapid rise in Omicron cases in South Africa.
The fact that Omicron has been detected in several other countries around the world.
The individual mutations that have been associated with resistance to neutralising antibodies.
The increased transmissibility of the virus from one person to another.
The unique mutations that Omicron has, especially on the spike protein.
a) I, II, and VI are correct.
b) I, II, III, V, and VI are correct.
c) All afirmacoes are correct.

Ed · Answer

A razão para o alarme global em relação à variante Omicron é a combinação de vários fatores, incluindo o número de novas mutações em todo o genoma do SARS-CoV-2, a rápida disseminação da variante na África do Sul e em outros países, a possibilidade de resistência a anticorpos neutralizantes, a maior transmissibilidade do vírus e as mutações únicas na proteína spike. Portanto, a alternativa correta é a letra b) I, II, III, V e VI estão corretas.
