OMICRON LOGS IN TO IT CITY

Omicron, the highly mutated version of the coronavirus, 'logged into the IT city of Bengaluru with two cases, making India the first country in South East Asia to get the new variant.

But the mystery here is that one of the persons who tested positive for Omicron had no travel history, leaving health experts wondering.

While one of the patients is 66 and a South African national, the other is 46years-old. The 66-year-old has a travel history to Dubai and did not have any contact with the 46-year-old who works in a hospital.

Authorities in Karnataka confirmed that the second patient does not have any travel history. His 218 contacts have been identified and tested, out of which three primary contacts and two secondary contacts have been found positive. These samples have been sent for genome sequencing.
