A single case of COVID fell by 43. 5% in the last week, with the peak of 72,558 positives recorded in the week between New Year and New Year, the new epidemiological cycle, corresponding to week 48, set off the alarms to verify the mayor. National prevalence of a highly contagious Omicron subvariant.
According to the report issued through the Ministry of Health of the Nation, the cases shown have five lines of the variant discussed. Among them for sale is the so-called “Dog from Hell” or BQ. 1. 1.

COVID Kraken in Argentina: the disruptor provides specialists against the new brother of infections
Esta subvariante se detectó en 15 de las 35 muestras analizadas, es decir, en uno de cada dos nuevos positivos.
“In Argentina, the existing scenario of SARS-CoV-2 variants is characterized by the exclusive flow of the Ómicron variant. Regarding the lines, between SE45-48 we begin to encounter a greater number of symptoms of Ómicron BQ. 1. 1. Array with some known instances of Ómicron XBB. 1, BA. 2, BA. 4 and BA. 5,” the data states.
And he adds: “In SE48 BQ. 1. 1 is detected in 15/35 there is analysis, XBB. 1 in 3/35 and Ómicron compatible with BA. 4/BA. 5 in 17/35. ”
El boletín explica que Ómicron es actualmente la variante dominante que circula a nivel mundial.
“The observed high transmission trend facilitated the emergence of new mutations that profile other sublines classified in the same variant. In the end, there are globally five other main Omicron lines: BA. 1, BA. 2, BA. 3, BA. . 4 and BA. cinco and its descendants (BA. 1. 1, BA. 2. 12. 1, among others),” he points out.
In this line, he continues: “The evolution of Omicron descendant lineages has continued to highlight genetic diversification and has resulted in more than 540 descendant and more than 61 recombinant lineages. However, some of these variants continue to increase in prevalence among patients. . that for others a few detections are recorded. “
In the case of Argentina, one hundred percent of the cases studied in SARS CoV-2 genomic surveillance correspond to an Ómicron variant.
En cuanto a los linajes, entre la semana 45 y la 48 comienza a detectarse un mayor número de muestras positivas para Ómicron BQ.1.1, con algunos casos identificados de Ómicron XBB.1, BA.2, BA.4 y BA.5.
The Ministry of Health of the Nation published on Monday new data on the progress of COVID cases in Argentina. According to the weekly report, 40,982 new cases of contagion were detected while positive cases of coronavirus reached 10,004,679 since the beginning of the pandemic.
