Omicron not more severe than Delta
世衛(wèi):奧密克戎不會導(dǎo)致更嚴重疾病

Omicron does not appear to cause more severe disease than previous Covid-19 variants, and is "highly unlikely" to fully dodge vaccine protections, WHO emergencies director Michael Ryan told AFP on Tuesday. He said that while a lot remained to be learned about the new, mutated variant of Covid-19, preliminary data indicated it did not make people sicker than Delta or other strains. 
世界衛(wèi)生組織緊急項目執(zhí)行主任邁克爾?瑞安12月7日在接受法新社采訪時說，沒有跡象表明奧密克戎變異株會比之前的新冠病毒變異株導(dǎo)致更嚴重的疾病，而且"極不可能"完全避開疫苗保護。他表示，雖然關(guān)于這種新型變異株還有很多需要了解的地方，但初步數(shù)據(jù)表明，它并不會比德爾塔等毒株導(dǎo)致更嚴重的疾病。

"We have highly effective vaccines that have proved effective against all the variants so far, in terms of severe disease and hospitalization, and there's no reason to expect that it wouldn't be so for Omicron," he said.
他說："目前為止，就(新冠病毒感染導(dǎo)致的)嚴重疾病和住院治療來說，我們有非常高效的疫苗并且已被證明對所有變異株都有效，因此沒有理由認為疫苗會對奧密克戎無效。"
