In 99 The new cases concerning the BA strain of the Omicron variant are calculated, according to a new report of EODY for the coronavirus mutations in our country. Overall they have been detected 204 cases of this variant
The new cases amount to 922 with the Omicron variant, while a total of 6,686 cases have been identified.
The report of EODY in detail
Completed by the National Network of Genomic Surveillance of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, operating under the coordination of EODY, the genomic analysis in 1005 samples selected randomly or targeted and covering the period January 24, 2022 to February 21, 2022. of 1005 samples, a total of 932 samples were identified with special interest strains
(Variants Of Concern – VOC).
Of the 932 specimens of special interest, 922 relate to the Omicron strain (B.1.1.529) and 10 relate to Delta
Ninety-nine (99) of the 922 Omicron strains were related to strain BA.2 (11%, while B.1.617.2 (VOC-21APR-02) (Table 3).
last week the corresponding figure was 6%).
Since the launch of the National Network of Genomic Surveillance of the SARS-CoV-2 virus until today have been tested in the territory
a total of 50,585 samples from domestic cases. Of these, 45,767 come from random sample selection, 4,077 come from
targeted sampling or selection and for 741 samples no sampling information is available.
During the two months before February 21, 2022, a total of 7,539 samples of domestic cases had been tested in the territory. Of these, 7,051 come from random sampling and 488 from targeted sampling or sampling. Among the 7,051 randomly selected samples in the territory for the two months prior to February 21, 2022, the two most common stakeholders isolated are Omicron with 87% followed by Delta with 13% (Table 4).
Of the 488 samples taken or selected in a targeted manner during the two months before 21 February 2022, 79% were
Omicron strain and 21% in Delta strain.
In addition, a total of 673 stakeholders of special interest or under observation or interest have been isolated from samples
of which 336 were in Delta, 203 in Omicron, 113 in Alpha, 7 in Mu, 6 in Beta, 4 in B.1.1.318
(Variant E484K), 1 in Eta, 1 in C.36, 1 in Kappa, and 1 in B.1.1 (Variant E484K).
The evolution of the relative frequency of sequenced samples from random sampling per species of strains, up to
week 06 of 2022 is shown in Figure 8, while additional temporary data for weeks 07-08 are given.
Regarding the executives of increased interest currently in the country, the geographical distribution by Regional Unit
is presented in Table 5.
