What is the Omicron Variant ?
What is Omicron is a question for some Indonesians. This is related to the finding of the Omicron
variant of the corona virus entering Indonesia. Omicron is the latest variant of the corona virus that
causes Covid-19.
The Omicron variant, also known as lineage B.1.1529, is a variant of SARS-CoV-2, a coronavirus that
causes Covid-19. The WHO declared it a wary variant and named it after the Greek word Omicron.

How did the Omicron virus spread to Indonesia?

Overall, during December 2021, there were 136 confirmed cases of Omicron, while from 2022 to January 8
there were 278 people.

Of the 414 people, as many as 50 people with local transmission cases. The rest are foreign travelers. In
addition, most of those infected with Omicron are those who have been fully vaccinated.
This means that vaccination does not guarantee a person will be protected from the COVID-19 virus. In fact,
most of today's confirmed cases of Omicron have infected those who have been fully vaccinated.

Omicron has a much faster transmission rate than the Delta variant. In Indonesia, the movement of the
Omicron has continued to increase since it was first confirmed on December 16, 2021.

Wash your hands regularly with soap.
How to prevent further Omicron variants by washing hands. Looks
simple, but has a big impact when you wash your hands regularly.
In addition to avoiding the risk of viruses, you can also prevent
various diseases. Regular hand washing with soap can kill germs
that are transmitted through hands. You can wash your hands with
soap and water. Rinse with running water. If this is not possible,
try to bring hand sanitizer or hand sanitizer.
Wearing a mask when leaving the house.
The benefits of using a mask are not new. However,
wearing a KF95 and KN95 mask during an Omicron
spike is recommended. If that feels better to you, give it
a try. However, medical masks can also prevent
transmission. The most important thing is to make sure
you wear the mask correctly, covering your mouth and
nose..
Keeping Your Distance and Avoiding Crowds

If you are traveling make sure to keep your distance

and avoid crowds to prevent transmission. Because,
we do not know whether the person is healthy or not.
The World Health Organization also appealed as a way
to break the chain of transmission of COVID-19.
Increase the body's immunity to minimize
exposure to the virus

No less important, increase immunity by maintaining a healthy

lifestyle, such as consuming nutritious food, multiplying fruits,
vegetables, and vitamins and exercising. Make sure you eat
regularly and don't skip meals. Meanwhile, being active can be
done simply, such as yoga, cycling, or just walking around the
house for 15 minutes. The existence of a healthy lifestyle can help
the body's metabolism faster.
Vaccination as a defense against
infection
Vaccination is the best line of defense against
infection. Vaccination is the best way to prevent
disease and death. Higher vaccination rates also
reduce the chances for the new coronavirus to spread
and develop into new variants including Omicron.

The hope is to restore protection against new variants

including the Omicron. Even if the new variant has a
unique cluster of mutations, tests will need to be
done to determine what the problem is.
