Omicorn raises the alarm, the Technical Committee of Experts meets today

The Technical Committee of Experts will meet today at 14.00 for an analysis of the situation with Covid-19 in our country. It remains to be seen whether there will be a tightening of measures and why rumors are that restrictions are expected to tighten.

Today's meeting comes after identifying the Omicorn variant of Covid-19 that has raised alarm around the world. The new mutation, rated as very dangerous, first discovered in South Africa has already spread to many parts of the world.

This has led a number of states to tighten restrictive measures. Unlike other countries facing the fourth wave of the pandemic, the figures in Albania are not considered so disturbing by experts.

In recent days the number of new cases has not exceeded 600, while that of victims has been less than five. Meanwhile, the vaccination with the third dose for the elderly continues, while the reluctance of the young continues.
